The Girlfriends’ Guide to Pregnancy
I loved this book so much. She told the good and bad, the up and down and unspoken stuff about pregnancy, from a non-doctor, non-professional point of view. It was a lighthearted read but did give me information that I didn’t know about, and I liked how it told the reader a lot about the emotional aspects of being pregnant. I also laughed out loud several times during this book. I loved the writing style! She went through what happens during the 9 10 months and the birth, and though she had very medicated birth views I still enjoyed reading about it.
Skinny Bitch Bun in the Oven: A Gutsy Guide to Becoming One Hot (and Healthy) Mother!
This book was complete GO VEGAN propaganda. This does not annoy me in general because I like reading propaganda and then take away what I want from it. What did annoy me, is that it doesn’t let the reader know it’s propaganda before they read it. It would suck to be a pregnant woman, chompin on hot wings readin this book and read about how you’re killing your baby by eating the crap you’re eating. It’s a really informative and interesting book, but I think it’s a little irresponsible, or perhaps just inconsiderate of the reader. Especially since pregnant woman go all psycho hormonal (allegedly).
I learned tons about the meat/milk/fish industry and I absolutely LOVED that this book stated sources. That’s my main problem with propaganda books…they just say their side of an issue without giving facts/sources/studies etc to prove their points. These skinny bitches do. Will I go vegan immediately after reading this book? Hell to the no. Am I going to give my kids milk after reading this book? Hell to the no. You pick and choose what you take from any book, ya know. I already told you before that I think I’ll end up vegan one day though… ::shrug:: John’s going to have a cow. (pun intended)
and I had to thank Allah, Buddah, and Jesus that I am not currently pregnant because I would totally be freaking out and working myself into a tizzy right now. Not good for babyH.
recounting what they learned from their life altering book. I must admit, my “to read” list has grown a bit longer now.
. This book helped get me on track. Got me addicted to lists. And helped me be more productive.
was another book in the running. This book stays with me to this day as I do some of the visualization techniques in it each week. It’s a winner if you want to get into visualizing for positive results.
is high on my change my life list. After reading this book, my wavering views on religion and spirituality were solidified, and I was also able to reach the deepest level of meditation I ever had.
. It’s really a shame that this man’s creepy face kept me from reading this book sooner. It was a powerful book for me and the first personal development book I ever read. It’s also one of the first books I suggest to people who truly want to turn their lives around.
