4.5

Important, challenging and necessary. Some of this has been more thoroughly covered in the previous book, "The Great Sex Rescue", but still good. I think the lens of addressing moms of daughters maybe bypassed me a little, and the authors may be guilty of strawmanning the opposition a little bit, on the whole I thought it good and I would 10/10 recommend.

This is written for an evangelical audience, but I read it because evangelical culture and Mormon culture have overlapping areas of concern. Actually, I wish this book had been around when my daughters were younger. It's a good resource for Christian parents who want to raise girls to be strong in their faith and confident in themselves.

Whether you have a daughter, or you have influence over someone's daughter, this book is for you. If you are an adult woman who grew up influenced by best-selling Christian books on gender roles, this book is for you.

I grieved and rejoiced reading this in preparation for taking my own daughters through it. I have come to believe that much of what I believed about the roles of women and girls and modesty and purity and more is not only wrong, but actively harmful -- to everyone.

My daughters deserve better, and this book is the right tool for the job.
