Listen, I'm not your average Chicken Soup reader. (The books are fine. They're just not my particular cup of...tea, soup, or what have you.) But I have two other wonderful books by Marston on my shelf, namely her parenting book, "The Magic of Encouragement," and her book for midlife women, "If Not Now When,"---both of which I love and return to often. So, on impulse, I picked up Marston's Chicken Soup/Life Lessons book last night, and I'm already a happy grrrllll as a result. (A good self-help book that's also fun to read is truly a thing of beauty---and all too rare.) Okay, opening at random, page 201, "Create a Passion Kit," to bring "a sense of joy, creativity and playfulness back in your life.." Hey, which one of us wouldn't benefit from a little of that?! (And the book is packed with delightful stories to illustrate Marston's suggestions.) Page 194: "It's time to be outrageous. What do you have to lose?" What indeed? In short, it's a smart, charming, useful, extremely entertaining book. Buy it. You won't be sorry. I'm here on Amazon because I'm planning to buy a few more copies as gifts for friends.
