    <body><![CDATA[A very religious family member gave this to me as a wedding present. I knew it had to be good, and read it aloud to Nate in the hotel room on our wedding night- seriously. This book is so ludicrous and offensive. I had to give it 5 stars because of the hours of entertainment it's provided to myself,...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/69507013">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I was not impressed with this book.  Actually, I was given this book by a friend, who was earnestly seeking to encourage me in my pursuit of &quot;housewifing&quot;.  I found the author to be brash and critical of women in general. Believing this author's heart to truly please God in all she does, I...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/9120386">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[VERY hard to read.  She is harsh.  But in my opinion, harsh in a positive and necessary way.  Our culture of &quot;my rights&quot; and &quot;I deserve&quot; dulls us to our need to continually surrender having our way and getting our needs met first.  Motherhood has reminded me more than ever how se...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/7506785">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I am actually reading this cover to cover.  It's one of the scariest things I've ever done. It would be hilarious if it weren't for the fact that women actually embrace it.<br/><br/>Again, of all the books I've delved into so far, this is the deepest rabbit hole my research has taken me to.<br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/75903044">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[You have to read this book with an open mind and realize that it's not in our culture to be wives like this book advocates being.  But even if you don't agree with everything (I DO like my part time job and I also like that my husband does dishes and cleans) it give you plenty to think about and mor...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/40811203">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a good book. The author is very hard on the women. Sometimes to hard. I think she lives in la-la land. She is way over the top on some things. But other things she hits it right on the head. <br/>The basics are covered, respect, honor and obey your husband.
