 | Some good advice Jul 20, 2006 |
| Just like any other parenting book, you'll have to take what's helpful and leave the rest. I want to stress that I did find a FEW very helpful parenting suggestions in this book. If you're thinking about reading this book just be aware that it has a fairly strong religious tone. A great read for someone seeking faith- based parenting views. One to skip for someone who just wants a parenting book! | | |  | Author Response to Review Accusation Jan 17, 2006 |
Dear Ms. Willman (and other readers/reviewers),
It is my habit to check online reviews two or three times a year in hopes of keeping tabs on the thoughts of the reading public. I came across your review and immediately pulled a weather beaten copy of She's Gonna Blow from my office shelf and turned to pages 68 and 70. Indeed, in the first sentence of the third paragraph it reads, "I lived with my two younger sisters..."
You, my observant reader, have managed to catch an editorial oversight (also referred to as "an error") which up until this time has managed to slip by the eyes of countless editors and myself.
Ms. Willman, the authenticity of my personal character and writing is of utmost importance to me as a writer and woman. My passion for communicating via spoken and written words was, is, and forever will be, built upon a core foundation of authenticity and truth...even when revealing it is personally painful or less than flattering.
I want to assure you, as well as the hundreds, even thousands, of men and women who may read these review pages, that the personal stories I reveal in my books are far from "manufactured sad scenarios," being used in a manipulative attempt to prove something.
No, Ms. Willman, I have no need to make up stories for my real life is filled to overflowing with twists and turns, losses and gains, heartache and redemption. Rest assured, save for the typographical error you found, the story you call into question was indeed true--as were dozen others. I did lose my older sisters at a very young age. I did watch them leave my foster parents home without me. I did (still do on many occassions) mourn their absence. Their leaving had a profound effect upon my heart. I reveal and peel away these places of my heart and life in order to let other women--other mothers, know that they are not alone. No matter how hard that may be to believe.
Please know I have contacted my publishing house and the typographical error will be corrected as soon as possible. I trust you will accept my response with the same measure of grace by which it was offered. Should you wish to contact me, please feel free to email from my web site, juliebarnhill.com.
Warmly,
Julie Ann Barnhill | | | | Author Falsifies Her Own Past! Jan 2, 2006 |
I will say that this book has the potential for helping people (moms) with anger issues. However, there are some major discrepencies in the stories the author tells of her own past that have turned me off the book completely.
On page 68 the author relates a heart wrenching memory in which her 2 younger siblings (ages 4 & 5) are adopted out of the foster home all 3 were living at.
At the end of page 70 the author has the audacity to claim she was adopted at the tender age of 3 after spending only a year in foster care.
I'm sorry but manufactoring sad scenarioos and passing them off as truth in order to prove a point is wrong. I find it manipulative to say the least. Unfortunately in my eyes it totally discredits the author & her book. | | | | Saving Grace Nov 12, 2005 |
Finally, a book that told my story! From page one I could relate to this author. She is candid in the book about her own life and struggles with anger. The book essentially has four parts: what anger looks like (where you find out you are not alone!), what may have caused it, what you can do about it in the long term (real change!) and what strategies you can use in the meantime.
The book is Christian based; the author reminds and encourages the reader to turn to our Lord for assistance. She does not preach, reprimand, or lecture. She points out places in the Good Book that will renew your energy and confidence in your own parenting.
I did have a hard time with the part about where the anger comes from, since I have not experienced any abuse as a child. I felt a little guilty that I shared such a devestating problem with people who have a much better excuse than me. However, the author is sensitive to this and reminds the reader constantly that all types of reasons could have lead to this issue.
The title of this book jumped off the screen for me, because it so fittingly described me. I constantly felt like I was on the verge of "blowing". The short and long term strategies have helped me crawl from that desperate feeling onto more confident ground. I still have a long way to go, but I am eternally grateful for this book's honesty and resourcefulness.

| Congratulations and thank you Julie Barnhill for writing such a wonderful, helpful book and for having the courage to admit you made mistakes so that all of us may learn from them. My son is just now becoming a toddler and I was just beginning to feel the frustration and anger so I am very thankful to have heard of your book at MOPS before I had very many chances to really screw up. You have made me a much better parent and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. | | | Write your own review about She's Gonna Blow!: Real Help for Moms Dealing with Anger
