I will have to say right upfront that this should have a domestic violence warning. With that being said, I really enjoyed this book. Watching a mother, her mother and her daughter going through a life littered with teen pregnancies and trying to break generational curses was so deep and sad in ways. Trying to break away from a life with a man that was abusive did not help her cause. The moments that struck me the deepest were watching her not think she deserved a better life. I love Esmeralda Santiago's writing and thought this book was wonderful!

The Marsh King's Daughter

book cover


This was such a page turner of a book. Not based on a true story (as I had originally thought) this book follows a daughter's struggle to turn her father in after he escapes prison. Though the turmoil starts well before when she realizes that her father abducted her mother at 14 and she is a result of his holding her captive. Now married with two children of her own, what decisions will she make to keep her own family safe from her father? Her cunning and wilderness upbringing will be tested in everyway as she tracks her father and ultimately makes a decision on what to do!

Girl, Stop Apologizing

I added this book when I was trying to build my Beachbody business. I think if I was still in a place of wanting to build my own business, this book would have done more for me. Though it was good, I am no longer in the head space for the tips and messages it had to offer. I will say that I did have one really good take away for pursuing my personal career growth though. I feel like I have a road map to plan my next move within my current company to move into a bigger role and how to achieve it.

Fat Chance, Charlie Vega

This was a fun quirky kind of read. Very much a young adult style book, dealing with high school love and dealing with Charlie's personal struggle with her weight. It was interesting how the main character dealt with not only the loss of a parent, but how she dealt with the parent left behind that made her feel self conscious of her weight. I think we as women all struggle with the stereotypes of not thinking we are loved when we don't love our own bodies.

Apples Never Fall

Oh the length of this book in audio version... I really struggled to finish this book. The first half of the book seemed to drone on forever, without ever really getting interesting. The second half of the book is where it finally picked up! The tennis driven family of 6 in a twisting and turning whirlwind of who did it, where is mom, who is this stranger living with my parents, did dad kill mom was intriguing to say the least. I did watch the series after I read the book, it took some different turns, but ultimately told the same story. I would recommend watching the series, as it does the book justice, though reading the book - know it gets better in the second half when things are moving faster!
