yoomian 's review for:
Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother
by Amy Chua
I had read countless arguments, articles, and reviews about the book so I knew what was coming but I still can't believe this book was published as is. At first, I laughed because my parents raised me in a similar way. And as miserable as I thought I was then, I am now eternally grateful for what they did and I love and respect them so much. But then halfway through, her book went over the edge. She was no longer a tiger mom but a crazy one. And at the end, it was apparent that she never did figure out how to end the book or what her point was. It ruined it for me. If I was her editor, I would have handed it back like she did when her daughters gave her the sad, last minute homemade birthday cards and told her it wasn't good enough. A disgrace.
