What Every Woman Should Read

I used to be the type of woman who had more male friends then female friends. Men were just easier to get along with and women were always so messy, petty and hard to befriend. This book really helped me deal with that and has left me excited about the beauty of female to female relationships. I love the way Alicia delicately exposes the root of the problem and allows the reader to evaluate their own character without chastising, condemning or presenting another "what women need to do" list. She really spoke to the heart of the matter in away that left me enthusiastic about being a better sister and friend and excited about being a woman!!! This book not only helps you with your female relationships.. but really helps you grow in all your relationships by allowing you to really evaluate your character without feeling ashamed, condemned or discouraged to change. I recommend this book to all women who want to better their relationships and live in the fullness of their feminine identity!

For Women of All Ages

It's easy to think of others before reading this book but Dethroning The Queen deals with the "queen bee" and mean girl within every woman. Not only does the author do an excellent job at exposing bee-like tendencies but goes on to provide the necessary tools to exterminate them. At the end of every chapter there's a study guide with things to memorize, reflection questions, an action plan and more...making Dethroning The Queen an excellent personal resource and a great book for group study. While the issues discussed in depth in this book would also apply to many men, because women of all ages are higly relational beings it truly speaks to the core of what so many women experience and deeply desire to get rid of in order to fully embrace life and one another.
