Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was rooting for this book. I was. And I made myself finish it. I kept hoping, thinking… maybe I’ll find a sliver. A nugget of goodness. Some wise little something in here that will enlighten my soul. But nope. One chapter after the next ticked me off even more. I feel sorry for Rachel. The reason myself and so many people I know buy books like this are to be inspired. To read someone else’s experiences who then relate their life to bigger picture a-ha moments. You’re not going to find that in the pages of Girl Wash Your Face. You’re going to find a whole bunch of “I…I…I….I….me…me…I….I did this… It was so hard… but I made it and my company is so great….… and I ate a box of cookies (like every woman in America) and then I ran a marathon…. I am so great…”. AGHHHH. YES. You are. Congratulations. Now please give me my $10 and my 4+ hours back. I spent quality beach time hearing this over and over and OVER again in my head. Self absorbed. Hypocritical. Humility... some humility...is a good thing. Some restraint, some humble outside eyes. Think about every audience. Know your audience. This book did accomplish one thing… it made me NOT want to sound like this in conversation. So thank you for that. I was so excited when it was finally over.
