Title Tuesday: The 500 Hats of the Modern-Day Woman
Today is Thursday, but we are going to treat it like a Title Tuesday,
my favorite day of the week. This day is dedicated to book suggestions and
reviews. I write this portion of my blog because I am a
big believer in the motivational speaker Charlie Jones'
quote which says, "You will be the same person in five years as you are
today except for the people you meet and the books you read.” With that being
said, let us jump in and get started.
Today I will be reviewing The 500
Hats of a Modern-Day Woman by Joyce k. Ellis. This 231 page book tackles a
collection of issues. Ellis discusses the roles of women as Christians, wives, mothers,
and more. Without giving too much away, I can say that she does a good job of
covering many angles. I read the entire book but there are definitely chapters
that will apply more to some than to others. Ellis’ colorful writing style and
humorous anecdotes help to make potentially awkward and serious issues more palatable.
The 500 Hats of a Modern-Day Woman is
a guiding light for women looking to figure out the complex life of a
modern-day woman.
All in all I rate
this book an A+. I would recommend this book to new mothers, empty-nesters, and
the soon-to-be-wed. This
book is written as a standard book with questions for discussion at the end of
each chapter. So I would say that this book is really best suited for group
studies.
