Hope Road

Girl Talk by Carolyn Mahaney and Nicole Mahaney Whitacre ****

I’m giving this book four stars not for its original content, but for its faithfulness to good biblical principles and doctrine. It is an excellent introductory primer on biblical womanhood, especially for mothers and daughters. Because of its broad span of topics, the book isn’t able to go in-depth about some of the issues I’m most interested in. It keeps everything pretty basic. But it is unfailingly uplifting, wholesome, and helpful, especially for teenage girls and their mothers, or for those who are just getting started in learning about what biblical womanhood entails.

Recommended age level: 10+. There is nothing inappropriate in this book. But the topics it discusses would be best understood and interacted with by pre-teenagers and teenagers.
