Unglued by Lysa TerKeurst

Unglued by Lysa TerKeurst is a refreshingly honest read about the world of raw emotions.  She describes 4 different reactions that women can have when we experience a flood of emotions that have the potential to rob us of the joyful life that God intends for us (two different kinds of exploders and two different kinds of stuffers).  Her vulnerability and openness about the struggles and progress in her own life is an encouragement to women everywhere who want to change but don't know how.  She continues to cover a variety of other related topics to raw emotions such as managing jealousy and negative inside chatter.

Lysa provides hope and encouragement and realistic steps towards forward progress throughout the book.  The thing I appreciated the most about this book was the understanding that perfection isn't the goal, but progress in the right direction is.  Her real life stories are incredibly relatable and make women feel like they are not alone in the struggle to control their emotions, and she brings this often hidden topic into the open and makes it something easy to talk about.  A great book with lots of real life application.
