The Body Is Not an Apology" by Sonya Renee Taylor : In-depth Review
I'll be honest with you – I picked up this book at a time when I was feeling pretty terrible about myself. You know those moments when you catch a glimpse of yourself in a mirror and immediately look away? When you spend more time criticizing your reflection than appreciating what your body actually does for you? That was me, and I suspect it might be you too if you're reading this review.

The Coddling of the American Mind" by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt : In-depth Review
I'll be honest with you – when I first picked up this book, I expected another dry academic treatise about education. What I got instead was something that felt like a mirror held up to our entire society, reflecting uncomfortable truths about how we're raising an entire generation. And frankly, it left me questioning everything I thought I knew about protecting young people.

White Fragility" by Robin DiAngelo : In-depth Review
Let me start with a confession: I picked up this book thinking I already knew everything I needed to know about racism. I considered myself one of the "good ones"—you know, the type who has diverse friends, votes for progressive candidates, and would never dream of using a racial slur. Boy, was I in for a wake-up call.

Let me start with a confession: I used to be one of those people who lived perpetually in my head.

Let me start by saying this: if you're looking for a light, romantic beach read about a perfect wedding, you've picked up the wrong book.

And honestly? That's exactly what makes this book so compelling.
