Chicken Soup for the Soul: I Decided I Could. 101 Stories of Women Who Turned Their Dreams into Reality by Amy Newmark
A Lively but Not Exceptional Collection of Uplifting Stories
summarizeEditor's Summary
I'm a huge fan of Chicken Soup for the Soul books, and this collection of uplifting stories about women's success and resilience did not disappoint. While it's not the most exceptional collection I've read, it's a great pick-me-up for anyone looking for a dose of positivity. I loved that the book is connected to a US women's protection organization, which adds an extra layer of meaning to the stories. The stories themselves are engaging and easy to get through, making it a great pick-up-and-put-down book. The writing style is consistent, but not particularly memorable. Overall, it's a solid choice for anyone in need of a morale boost.
