## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not a current study.
  

*by C***J on Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2016*

Interesting stuff but being that the study was conducted in the early 1990's, I wonder if everything is very relevant today. In many ways, I hope not. Internet and social media issues are not touched upon at all since the book was written before these issues were a part of the teenage landscape. I found a lot of how girls viewed themselves and others rather disturbing and looking back to how my own Midwestern 1980's teenage years were, either I had incredible confidence, my part of the country I grew up in was just different or the middle-class girls in this study were particularly lacking. I just don't recall it being as bad as it was portrayed in the book. It would be interesting to do a follow-up with the participants to see how they all fared as adults and what they are doing to raise their own daughters to be strong and confident.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great read.
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2014*

This book was published in 1994, but every bit of it is still relevant to today's young women.  I was actually expecting something else, but the book has exceeded my expectations.  While reading it you can't help but mentally take yourself back in time to your own life back when you were in middle school and even high school.  There are so many infuriating moments, and "Aha!" moments you will have with yourself if you are a woman reading this book.  You will tell yourself, "Well, no wonder I turned out this way," or such similar things.  It has helped me understand myself more and how we as young girls grow up in such a different yet similar environment to those around us.  There are also moments while reading when you're disgusted, or the "WTF?" moments.  It makes you want to stand for change in the growth of young girls from all walks of life.  I apologize for possibly being all over the place in my review, but it has evoked so many strong emotions and feelings that it is difficult to express them how I want and all at the same time.  I am just a single, white female, I do not have children of my own yet, but think that every man, woman and child should read or be aware of this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    the surprising world of teen-age girls.
  

*by P***T on Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2016*

Surprising and sad. That is the world of young women today who seem to be under so much pressure to conform to boy's expectations of them and struggle with their self-esteem. I loved this book which pulled the cover back on a world few of us know about. How do these young women survive to healthy adulthood? It is a mystery, given what you learn in this book. But they do.
