"It’s a question we’ve all asked ourselves. Today’s age of everything-goes media messages and in-your-face sexuality has led to many teen girls grappling with self-esteem and self-worth. Author Daree Allen, MS guides girls through their young adulthood by teaching lessons shared from her own experiences in her debut offering, What’s Wrong With Me?: A Girl’s Book of Lessons Learned, Inspiration and Advice. She offers self-empowering building blocks designed to strengthen young women’s inner truths in the face of relationships with themselves, others, and God. Fundamental to the inner truths are the foundational blocks that allow them learn to love the skin they’re in, realize their dreams, and make a positive impact on the world.
In this part memoir-part self-help guide, Daree addresses the timeless issues most girls struggle with in adolescence, including:
  • accepting body image and dressing appropriately
  • handling feelings of inadequacy
  • dating and premarital sex
  • relating to family members
  • understanding personal finance
  • discovering life purpose
  • respect and personal boundaries
The companion book, the What’s Wrong With Me? Reflections Journal digs deeper into the contemporary topics discussed in the book What’s Wrong With Me? that affect teen girls’ everyday lives. With interactive, thought-provoking workbook-style questions and fill-in-the-blank exercises, girls can openly and honestly record their thoughts and feelings to help them release tension and understand the world around them. The self-discovery, revelation and release will lead to profound fulfillment and start their own life-long practice of journaling."

Mandi's Thoughts on What's Wrong With Me?


What I love most about this book is that Daree Allen doesn’t pack any punches. She is more than willing to tell it like it is, but in a loving, I’m telling you this because I care kind of way.
                This book talked about a lot of major issues that teenage girls deal with on a daily basis. She talks about everything from sex to eating problems to family issues. And she’s very honest. She open about her life and experiences, and she’s using them to help other girls grow into mature, healthy women of God.
                I also loved that she is honest about what she does and doesn’t know. She doesn’t claim to be an expert or the only opinion out there about these issues. She doesn’t talk about things that she has no experience with. And she doesn’t preach.
                I will definitely recommend that the girls in my youth group read this book, or at least refer to it in difficult situations.

Little Monsters By  Kara Thomas Published on July 25, 2017 Published by: Delacorte Press Source: Netgalley For fans of  Pretty Little Liars ,  Little Monsters  is a new psychological thriller, from the author of  The Darkest Corners , about appearances versus reality and the power of manipulation amongst teenage girls. Kacey is the new girl in Broken Falls. When she moved in with her father, she stepped into a brand-new life. A life with a stepbrother, a stepmother, and strangest of all, an adoring younger half sister. Kacey’s new life is eerily charming compared with the wild highs and lows of the old one she lived with her volatile mother. And everyone is so nice in Broken Falls—she’s even been welcomed into a tight new circle of friends. Bailey and Jade invite her to do everything with them. Which is why it’s so odd when they start acting distant. And when they don’t invite her to the biggest party of the year, it doesn’t exactly feel like...
