Women have been tamed for years. We’ve been told what a proper lady looks like, sounds like, acts like, etc. So what happens when someone challenges those expectations society has put on us? Untamed tells Glennon Doyle’s story of doing just that. Glennon ended her marriage to pursue the woman she fell in love with at a conference. That decision could’ve changed her life, her career, and her kids’ lives in an infinite amount of ways. Could it have been the wrong decision? Yes, but it proved to be the right one. Untamed teaches readers to ask challenging questions, trust their gut, and not live in fear. 


I DEVOURED THIS BOOK. Like literally couldn’t put it down. Glennon Doyle’s writing style pulled me in, and the topics she covered, the similarity of my opinions to hers, and her vulnerability kept me wanting more. I can’t believe it took me so long to read this book but I’m so happy book club brought it to me💜


I seriously think there are about 50 post-its in my copy highlighting amazing quotes. Therefore, I don’t think I can pick a favorite… but here is 1 of my 50+ highlights…. “Take good care of all of your selves. Fight like hell to keep yourself, and when you lose her, do whatever it takes to return to her.”
