Summary: Thanks for the advice, Mrs. Jones.
Comment: I do not recommend this book for women, especially teenage girls. While it offers some tips on manners and clothing choices, these ideas can be found in any conventional book of manners, without the harsh snobbery that accompanies them. The author is judgemental toward anyone whose manner of behavior and dress appear anywhere below perfection and even suggests that if a woman is not clean-cut, slim, and well-groomed, she is disgracing God. This book has been known to drive young girls toward eating disorders. Reading the section on weight management (her favorite term is "control") it's not hard to imagine why.

Summary: Sets women back 1000 years!
Comment: This book on what the author calls "Christian beauty" is really nothing more than a guidebook for keeping women in their place. It's all about projecting the "proper" image for your man and God, with such wonderful advice as "don't change anything about your appearance without your husband's or father's approval first." While I'm no fan of mainstream women's magazines, this is far worse. Purchase today and be opressed tomorrow!
