Celebrity Candace Cameron Bure's (Full House, The View) latest inspirational title discusses the power of living graciously and how developing one's faith can assist readers on the road to kindness. Each chapter delves into an area of life that women can improve on with a little more kindness; friendship, family, decision making big and small, and discovering purpose. In a society that has such conflicting ideals, Candace seeks to help readers discover God's true purpose for them and encourages readers to dig deep and discover truths that too often are kept buried. Kindness not only improves the lives of those around us, but it drastically improves the one giving it. A little kindness can have a ripple effect into the lives of others and Candace strives hard to make that clear though personal testimony and God's word, that kindness is truly the new classy. Expertly narrated by the author herself, Candace's sweet and charming tone leaves no doubt that's she's smiling and laughing her way though this great narration. This latest self help novel will find a large audience not only among her fans, but within church groups and women's bible studies.

Throughout this book Mrs. Cameron Bure touches on a wide variety of interesting subjects: kindness, faith, finding purpose, self care, feminism in Hollywood, marriage and many other topics. Unfortunately none of these important topics get much focus in this short book. She has the start of so many good conversations, but seems to either lack the experience or willingness to be vulnerable enough to really explore anything (besides her faith) in an in-depth manner. Although I don’t find this book to be helpful in making any changes in life, I do find Mrs. Cameron Bure to be a sincerely kind person which the world so often seems to lack.

Through scripture, stories, & reflection, Bure reminds readers that even though kindness seems to be missing in our society, it’s not too late to be the kind one. A quick & enlightening read that challenges us to think about how we should approach each other.

I really enjoyed this. It’s a faith-based self-help book peppered with personal anecdotes (which is more or less what I was expecting). I appreciate that she is a strong-willed woman, even though I don’t necessarily agree with some of her viewpoint. That said, she is refreshingly nonjudgmental. Her live and let live/golden rule philosophy makes the book relatable, and truly anyone (no matter what their religion/cultural background is) can learn a thing or two about being kind for kindness’ sake.

It’s an important and valuable concept that Candace provides some basic wisdom, advice, scriptural understanding, and personal experience to flesh it out.
It was an okay read; I preferred “Reshaping It All” more.

Thank you, Candace. Thanks for being my new friend. Thank you for reminding me of my faith in God. I will be reading you again in July. Being mean is easy, being kind is classy. I love this book so so much!
Reading the Bible, Bible app, taking deep breaths, pausing, forgiveness, writing down my prayers, asking God for help and guidance, and believing in Him more so now.
