5.0 out of 5 stars Kim writes an excellent book on mental and physical health, June 13, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: A Model for a Better Future (Hardcover)

Kim Alexis writes a wonderful book that has really made an impact on my life. As Kim tells her life's story she talks about how she has been able to survive the pressures and stress put upon her as a model, a wife and a mother in a crazy immoral world. This book carries Christian themes since religion is her major lifeline, faith is what keeps her strong. In reading this book one feels if Kim can be a morally strong and physically healthy person I can too. Kim shows us the way. This book is more than a beauty book, it is about being whole from the inside out. If you are looking for a book on beauty tips this is not the book for you, however if you want to live a healthier, happier more fulfiling life Kim tells you how and gives numerous examples of how she accomplished it..

5.0 out of 5 stars Pleasingly truthful and straightforward., February 4, 1999

This review is from: A Model for a Better Future (Hardcover)

Kim Alexis and Jim Denney present a surprisingly straightforward account of Ms. Alexis' beliefs and her faith in God. Ms. Alexis is not afraid to say what she truly believes, and she does so without trying to offend others. I don't read much anymore, but I'm glad I read Kim Alexis' book. It is great to hear someone stand up for God in an industry that despises Him.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful lady of poise, elegance, unyielding!, April 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: A Model for a Better Future (Hardcover)

In my second book review, as my first was done so as I had found the book, in february 15,1999, and after reading it. The lady that became an in demand glamorous model,as which I came to know about, as she was in her eighth year as a top model, I was a girl, and admired her so. I admire her still, as she has remained unrelenting in her convictions, and will remain so. Kim Alexis has sincerity that is rare, and she writes with such warmth and humor, she knows right from wrong, and doesn't elaborate in her writing, that will make her story an invaluable story for years to come. And, I hope it will be an inspiration for others girls for years to come, as she has been to me. It is a book, not only to be read at the library in a home town, but one for sitting on a shelf in a home, for one to read it, every once and awhile, each time learning something new, about the author and oneself.
