Self-help book reviews

I’ve been reading since I was very young - there have been times when books were the only “friends” I would let in.

I love books! And I love sharing books.

My goal, in Square-Peg-Stacks, is to share - with you - my excitement about books that have touched my heart. To create a place you’ll come looking for self help book suggestions - encouraging words for the journey of life.

Books have offered me hope, when I felt there was none. They have shown me ways to get past blocks, or work through pain. Books have normalized my emotions: let me know that I wasn’t the only one who felt a certain way.

And books have kept me from spiraling down and out of human reach. They have been a bridge to the world - that has allowed me to walk out of isolation into connection with others.

Many times when I’ve been able to recommend a book that I thought was a good “fit” for someone, or would be helpful in what they were going through, they would come back to me and say things: “That book changed my life!” or “That was just what I was looking for.”

I hope that you will find something helpful for your situation in these book reviews.
