Let me first say, I am not a big fan of fiction books, I practically never read them frankly. This book, however, was a great exception. Sophia and the Seven Goddesses is a young adult book *I would say for younger girls and teens.* This fiction book was extremely well written, and captivated me as I began to read it. It is a very empowering book for younger woman. The book focuses on a girls journey into learning how to love herself, and empower herself. I am trying to be vague as to not spoil the plot of the book. This book hooked me after the first I think 20 pages, and that is extremely hard to do, since I never read fictional books. Each Goddess gives a gift so to speak to the main character, whos name is Sophie. An example of a gift would be Aphrodite gives the gift of self love.
If you have a young girl from the age 7-13 I would highly recommend this book. This book also gives you a tidbit into goddess mythology.Metaphysical lessons are also input in this book, which makes it interesting. This is a book that will make you feel better about yourself, and will put a smile on your face. We live in a society that the media puts women down constantly, or at each others throats over silly things. This book I think could help create a better culture for young girls, so that they can be respectful, and caring to one another. I feel like this book specifically will help the younger girls be stronger in this sometimes cruel society we live in.
Rating-5 stars
Well written, would be great for younger teens to read, before they get hit with an even stronger bombardment of media messages.
