"Arianna Huffington doesn't mince words and she has written a book about embracing life as a woman, in all aspects. A couple of chapters are a little tedious but overall the book is great. Clearly she walks the talk as the Huffington Post is her success. " — Jennifer (4 out of 5 stars)

“[A] call to arms against the forces that would keep women ‘sacrificing our personal truth to go along, be approved of, or just plain be nice.’”

“Veteran TV commentator Huffington has an outstanding grasp of the many ways young women doubt themselves, fear conflict, and shrink from feeling more competent in their roles at home and in the community…Candid and humble…persuasive… Her security with these ideas creates a low-key message that is inviting rather than imposing.”
