Untamed: Stop Pleasing, Start Living

DNF

This is not a book meant for me. This woman is the personification of post-modernism and the chaos that it brings. This woman believes everyone else was “keeping her locked up” for the bulk of her life, and while there may be deep trauma from her first marriage and issues in her childhood that led her to feel this way, this book dives into none of that, in fact, I don't think the author has dived into that in her actual life.

Glennon Doyle is a full grown adult that acts like a 20 year old who is finally finding herself, you can be happy for her, but you're also rolling your eyes at her “wisdom”. The piece of this book that made me set it down is that Glennon claims to be Christian, but goes ahead and makes up whatever she'd like and calls it “truth”. Instead of realizing that she will never be perfect, she makes up a religion that says she already is - this woman needs therapy, not a publishing deal.

Small note; listening to the audiobook read by the author really helps you feel the cringe and self-absorption that radiates from this woman. Rachel Hollis, do you have a sister?
