1: Wonderful Book! Good for everyone looking for a little insight!
This book is good for anyone looking for a little insight! I'd recommend this book to not only women, but men as well. We could all use some insight into how we act around others as well as when we are alone, how and why we think the way we do. Once you get a taste of the wild woman, you won't ever want to let her go!

2: Absolutely Buy!!
Originally found this book years ago at used book sale for $1. Has been one of my favorite books ever since. Dr Estes gives great insight into the lives of women thru myth and then explains it as it relates to everyday life. Every woman needs to read at least once. I continue to buy copies for my girlfriends because I'm afraid if I lend mine, it might not get back to me.
Perfect gift for any woman.

3: Pretentious and deluded
The stories are interesting and a nice read in this book, but some written or even televised fairytale shows can deliver a lot more than this book, without the preach.
|
4: Medicine in words
If you need to find yourself... you may want to give this book a try, you will definitelly see yourself in one of the stories at least.
Enjoy

5: Poor print quality, couldn't finish book
I bought this book some years ago following a rave recommendation, and the title really grabbed my attention. Once I got home to start reading it, I got the black smudges all over my fingers, and the really poor quality of print made it close to impossible to concentrate on the reading. I managed to get through some 50+ pages but just couldn't finish the book. I tried two or three times, to covercome this problem, but the paper color was quite brownish, and I just gave up in the end. I realized I couldn't give this book to any of my friends, and had to let it go. The one memorable part of the book was something about Ugly Duckling, and "unmothered mothers" theme.
Also the written quality of the book is such that it is quite chatty and repetitive. I think I might've preferred a condensed version of this book. Just my two cents. Thanks.
