About the book-
Heart Sisters is for women who want to both be and have better friends and want a helpful guide to take them through the process.
Author Natalie Chambers Snapp uses her own and others' stories of successes and failures to illustrate what she has learned about girlfriend relationships. Healthy boundaries, honesty, tact, sharing, and agape love all play a part in being and maintaining a circle of close confidants. She also deals with the inevitable challenges that face many relationships including how to handle conflict; life changes like a new baby, move or divorce; and when it is right to "break-up" with your friend.
My thoughts-
I remember growing up, I always had trouble forging and keeping close bonds with other girls. I had a few close relationships, but I always had a desire to have more friendships with other girls. Even as an adult sometimes it can be difficult to establish (let alone keep) close friendships with other women because everyone is doing their best to keep up with appearances instead of being their authentic self. I try my best not to be this way, but I'm afraid I am even guilty of this from time to time. Heart Sisters is a book that helps us with ways to make sure we are doing our very best to hold up our end of the friendship bargain with strategies and tactics for doing so. She makes a great point in the beginning saying that many women will try to get their husbands to fill this hole where we need girlfriends. I couldn't agree more. We are wired for deep, meaningful relationships, but I think we also are so afraid of being authentic that we miss out on what could be fantastic lifelong friendship. Heart Sisters gives us some ideas we can use to break down these walls and be the best friends we can be. I enjoyed reading this book and would recommend it to anyone seeking to sharpen and strengthen their current friendships or who are looking to make the first step towards new friendships. This book would make a great book selection for a women's group or book club!
