I first discovered Becky Thompson’s blog when a post of hers went viral on Facebook. As a result, I started following her and quite a few of her posts were very encouraging. When I discovered she had written a book, I was excited to get a chance to read it.
Her book, like her blog, is easy to read but oozing with encouragement. It is so obvious in every chapter that her heart truly cares about her readers even though she has never met us.
Overall, it was a little too conversational for my taste. Each chapter started with a personal anecdote or some sort of story. The anecdote was literally half or more of the chapter. So for me personally it was a little too drawn out.
When she got to her main point…it usually wasn’t earth-shattering or revolutionary. But it was just a whisper of something that my heart needed to hear as a Mom. There were a couple chapters in particular that were great reminders for me and brought me so much encouragement.
If you are a Mom who wants a friend to sit down over coffee with you and encourage you to persevere in motherhood…this is a great book!
Read Becky’s bio here and join her online at her web site or on social media.
I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
