You're Not Enough (and That's Ok): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love by Allie Beth Stuckey

challenging emotional informative inspiring reflective sad tense fast-paced

5.0

This book shattered every fragmentary thought and rigid principle that used to hang loosely in my head. It affirmed logic, reason (not feeling), and the Almighty for what we believe in. 'You are not enough, and you will never be, and it's okay because God is.' This phrase guided the path of the book, and every chapter prompted self-reflection on our own self-ejected miseries and journeys to self-discovery, often leaving us with more questions than answers. In our pursuit to gain control, we become miserable. The book imparts simple yet effective lessons that, at times, we might have taken for granted–how uncertainties lie in our lives and how the author's experiences carry readers through relatability. In the end, God is the finishing line, just as He was in the beginning. Bible verses and scriptures intertwine throughout the chapters, and it's rare to find one that presents points well, encouraging us to reflect and ponder.
