unfortunatly today many people reading books take the words of books as absolute truth and that scares me a little with this book. In one chapter Leslie is talking about a break up with a boyfriend and mentions she was experiencing a pain she was never meant to experience. Hello!!?!? are you kidding me Leslie? Of course you were supposed to experience it, if you hadn’t, chances are you wouldn’t be where you are today! They kept talking about “God taking the pen in their life” He always has the pen. . . you think you do but you don’t. . . this book bothered me in those ways, but they did have some good things to say, such as their chapter on why you should want to keep your purity instead of making rules about it. overall. . i wouldn’t recommend this book.

Although I thought the messege of the book was good, I thought that it was written for someone who couldn’t read very well. A good book for kids and people who cannot understand big words or do not read very often. But for advanced readers, I wouldn’t reccomend it.

This book is for the perfect — God’s chosen. If you are not all that you could be or if you don’t have everything in order like these two — people loving you, a perfect family, a perfect daddy to say “Yes, you can win my daughters’s heart. ” It is not for the broken-hearted, discouraged, melancholy, depressed, lonely, rejected or suicidal soul that cries herself to sleep every night wondering if she will ever have a chance at love. It is only for the one’s that God really(x 1 million) loves. I have had to face it that God does not love me like he loves the rest of his daughters. I’ve accepted it, but I still love him even though I am not perfect. I have had some real battles in my life, and it would have been all but wonderful to have a husband who loved me and cared about me to help me get through it. To put their strong arms around me and tell me that it would be okay. It is a extremely cold out their — but this book can help but its only for the perfect.

I bought this book thinking that it might help me discover the path that God has mapped out for my life. Instead, I was made to feel judged, dirty, cheap and beyond redemption. I found this book to be way too far right, coalitionist for me and not practical for everyone. Younger singles, under 25, may gain insight from this book but older singles should steer clear of it. I found the other book I ordered at the same time by Michelle McKinney Hammond, “What To Do Until Love Finds You: Getting Ready For Mr. Right”, much more practical and much less judgemental.

Quote from the book:”And, more than that, He [God] wanted to write my love story for me. . . without my help!” p58Since when are human beings supposed to halt all living and simply wait for God to work out their lives for them? If the authors can go so far as to apply this warped concept to dating, why not further? Why don’t we all just sit around and wait for God to do our dishes, clean up our mess, raise out children, love our spouse for us, and pick out our shoes? Where does this concept of letting God do things for us come from? Quote: “. . . loneliness is a gift from God” p126Please tell me how exactly loneliness is a gift. Certainly we all grow during hard times, but the hard times are not “gifts”, they are _hard times_. The type of attitude expressed in this book is basically giving a nice pat answer to people who are in real suffering and need to be understood. This book is written poorly with cliches gracing nearly every page and a significant number of generalizations are made based on the authors own experience. The book was obviously not carefully planned as it contains a great deal of contradictions. There are certainly many good points made in this book, but for myself the faults are too far away from truth to excuse. For these reasons I would find it very hard, if not impossible, to recommend this book to others.
