What a girl wants

by Kristin Billerbeck

This was such a wonderful book and the second time I've read it. It's about Ashley Stockingdale who is a patent lawyer in Silicone Valley. She is part of a singles group she calls the Reasons. I think it's mostly about the her trying to find out who she is, while battling with being single at 31. It's not about the fancy car she drives, or the fancy town she lives in, or the fancy clothes she likes to shop for. Life is so much more then all those things, although shopping seems to fix everything for a girl! She has a best friend named Brea who has recently married, which is another reminder of just how single Ashley is. Ashley has a low self image and doesn't see what a gift she really is, and seems to miss the gifts that others really are, especially ones that are right in front of her. She prayers and prayers and tries to remind herself to give it to God. In the end, when things can't get any worse, she puts her faith in God.

This is the first book in a 3 book series. The other 2 books are 'She's out of control' and 'with this ring I'm confused'.

I definately recommend this book.

Now onto book 2!
