5.0 out of 5 stars To Overcome not Be Overcome, November 15, 2004

This review is from: Victorious Woman! Shaping Life's Challenges into Personal Victories (Paperback)

VICTORIOUS WOMAN By Annmarie Kelly
This is not just another book dwelling on sensationalism but instead the author masterfully captures each woman's personal story. She brings out a true appreciation for each woman's consistent persistence to overcome and not be overcome by the challenges in their life. My attention was captured by each woman's experience ...and I found myself not wanting to put the book down. The author lays out a blueprint for the reader, women or men, `a track to run on' to guide you to becoming Victorious in your life journey. I highly recommend this book..... it will create new awareness's and insights for you to help you grow.

5.0 out of 5 stars Victorious Woman, February 21, 2008

This review is from: Victorious Woman! Shaping Life's Challenges into Personal Victories (Paperback)

This is a book I would recommend for any woman to read, and especially women in difficult life situations. Annemarie Kelly has shared true accounts of women who have overcome difficult situations and has provided a resource that can be used as a means of support and encouragement. I picked this book up for that reason, and it's one I would buy as a gift for a friend rather than just loaning my copy out.

Kelly herself is a victorious woman, not only as an author but also as a motivational speaker and advocate for women. If you haven't visited her website at www.victoriouswoman.com, you should take the time to do that as well.
