I really like the concept, but the execution feels dated. Still, some interesting ideas and an intriguing bibliography.

Pretty antiquated and sexist themes

[Tabby Shiflett · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book is for people who follow the Catholic faith. I found it a little pushy; however, if you can read it with an open mind, the book is put together well and has some good suggestions for mother-daughter dates. It almost reads like a devotional. I do like the mini-biographies of saints in each section that acts as a potential role model. Overall, decent work if you want to connect with your daughters.

Michaelann Martin's "Girls' Night Out'" was a FIRST READS win for me. Although my daughters are grown and on their own, I entered to win this book for my daughter and her teenaged daughter who are having some difficulties communicating and sharing good times together.

After reading this book myself I am thrilled to say I thinks this will help them with many situations.

I recommend this to all Moms who feel their daughters are slipping away and they are out of ideas. Give it a try

This was a book with some good ideas about things to do with your daughter that are God centered. Not a bad book, but I have no children yet, so I will have to keep it around so I have it when I need it.

I want to first say that I am not Catholic. Secondly I have different views than the author. I feel that everyone is entitled to their own views and if it works for them then they should go with it. The book was well written though.
