3.0 out of 5 stars Not What I was Expecting, September 21, 2006

By	drebbles (Arlington, MA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Humor for a Woman's Heart: Stories, Quips, and Quotes to Lift the Heart (Humor for the Heart) (Paperback)

When I picked up "Humor For A Women's Heart" I was expecting it to be filled with short humorous articles. And many of the articles are indeed humorous, especially "The Big Boo from the Balcony" (about kids not realizing they should only boo at sports events); "Yuck It Up" (about learning to laugh at yourself) and "Forget It" (about the inevitable forgetfulness that comes with age). But what I didn't realize until I started reading the book was that the book was published by a religious publishing company and it soon became apparent that the intention of the book was not as much to create laughter but to pass on a religious message. I felt deceived because nowhere on the front or back cover was religion mentioned. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against religion, but if I'm reading a religious book, I want it to be by choice, not deception.

5.0 out of 5 stars Humor for Women, April 23, 2009

By	Patricia A. Ellis "cat lover" (Snohomish, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Humor for a Woman's Heart: Stories, Quips, and Quotes to Lift the Heart (Humor for the Heart) (Paperback)

I found Humor for a Woman's Heart in my local grocery store just before Chistmas. I decided it would be an ideal Christmas gift for all the women in my circle, but before buying it in the store, I checked it out on Amazon. Was happy to see there are a series of these books. I ordered 5 then 5 more -- and ended up giving my copy away, too. Which I seem to keep repeating, so I keep reordering. I have two birthdays coming up, so have ordered more -- I haven't had a chance to read mine, but those who've gotten it have complimented me on making a good choice. One friend said it's a good book to read in bed, because it has short stories that can be finished in a short time.
