"Break your glass slippers" is a book for those who break glass slippers as well as glass ceilings. This book takes the reader to the journey where one can relate themselves with (almost) all the pages of the book as if its our story at some point of time. Amanda in the poetic way pens down various sensitive aspects like abuse,toxic relationship and friendship,sexual harassment,eating disorders,trauma,fat-phobic, and suicide and preaches the need for practicing " self-care" !
Isn't that we try to find while getting our heads inside the books and what better is a way other than poem indirectly focusing on the issues and leaving us to think isn't this what we are doing nowadays, worried about how others think about us,what they feel about us No matter what we think, feel We make their opinions the fact of our life as if they were in our shoes, they have gone what we have!
Have you heard of CINDERELLA? what kind of question is this,isn't that what you thought? Of course you have I know that! The only thing I wanted to do was to let your brain remember her story. Don't you think we ,too, have set the expectation like that, a Prince would be there waiting for us with the glass slippers and a fairy Godmother spelling some chants and then a happy forever life! but this ain't true. WE ALL KNOW THIS BUT DON'T DARE TO BELIEVE! This is what Amanda do here, breaking those slippers, being a fairy Godmother yourself and your own Prince.

Reading this book is a full delight as one gets to question themselves as well gets the answers from the book itself. The book is basically divided in three section each speaking powerfully with a great visual delights! My book is more like 'notes' all the points resonating me highlighted. I,personally, liked the advises from Fairly Godmother in the form of poem which gives a perfect measure for self-love,self-care and the need to look out yourself more and giving importance to yourself than other peoples opinions.
Definitely a must read And if you are Book-o-holic I can bet this would finish in one go!
(like I did Believe me i completed it in most probably in 2 hours)
