Her first book was great but this one was all about her journey following pagan rituals. BLECH! I threw away the book so no one else would have to read crap like this!

I've ready Melody Beattie books in the past, but this one is just awful. The writing style is poor and I found it condescending and aggravating versus helpful. I was so disgusted I actually threw this book in the trash, something I've never done before. My suggestion to others is to look somewhere else for guidance and comfort. This book will insult your intelligence.
