Book Review - Mee Thinks


I have seen Mary Ellen Edmunds name linked to things like Time Out for Women and Women's Conference but have never read or listened to her before reading this book, which is a compilation of some of her most popular talks. After reading this, I want to see/hear more!

Mary Ellen Edmunds, or MEE, as she calls herself, is delightful. Full of wisdom, humor, insight and inspiration, it is impossible not to enjoy her perspective. Go on, I dare you! I received this book as a gift and read a chapter here and there as I felt like it. It was very enjoyable and uplifting. A great gift for any one, but especially for those special women in your life.

I hadn't read or heard of her until a few years ago at Women's Conference I just sort of by accident ended up in her class, and I was pleasantly surprised by her spunk and wit and still the real inspiration I felt in hearing her.

(I'm a little bit horrified that I somehow made that all one big sentence. But, I'm too tired to fix it. So, just enjoy an epic run on tonight on me.)

I love listening to her speak. She came to the MTC and talked to all the sisters while I was there -it was a breath of fresh air after hearing a little too much of the sickly sweet "sister missionary voice."

She was one of my nursing professors at BYU. She had spunk then too and was fun to listen to. I also like her book!

Thanks for the recommendation. I have a friend going in for surgery in a few weeks and this seems like a good gift for her as she recovers. A book she can pick up or leave at will.
