Summary: A Stepmom's Bastion of Strength!
Comment: If I could give SIX stars, I would!

Karon Phillips Goodman writes from the heart and mind directly to stepmoms everywhere in this comforting and logical walk through finding one's sanity in the din of blending a family! Rich with examples, worksheets and humorous outtakes from her own life, Karon's words teach us that simplification is a DECISION. Don't look for a 'big book of answers' here... better yet... look for a "Big Book of Finding the Answers for YOU!"

As always, Karon fires away at the myths we often harbour in her own accessible, human style - a 'must read' for every stepmom or stepmom-to-be!

Summary: if your THAT naive, read this book
Comment: I was in real need of some guidance and this book was rated high in a local parenting mag so I picked it up looking forward to reading someone's expert advice. But instead I felt like I was listening to a cheerleader give me advice. Enough already with the exclamation points. I get the basic premise. What I was hoping for was something more substantial backed up with facts and studies. If you have little emotional intelligence you will probably get something out of this book... i have an iota more than a little and found this book ridiculously simplistic.

Rating: 5
Summary: SO helpful and a great read!
Comment: Wow! I feel so much better after reading this book! I know now some suggestions to slow down and make my priorities. I know not to expect too much. I'm considering marrying a man I love to death who has five children (four of whom will live with us). It's a struggle. I adore the kids, and they love me like a mother already. At least THAT's not an issue! BUT they have some mental/behavior issues. I also learned tho they love me now, they might change in their attitude toward me as they grow up, and they may be pains in the rear! (I knew that already!)

This book showed me I'm not alone and gave me suggestions on how to make my priorities realistic and not expect too much out of children. It's been immensely helpful. I recommend this book to any woman considering the stepmother role!
