This book was recommended to me by a black woman. She said it was a book for black women but it's really for all women. It will help you understand the misfortunes in your life and why we go through the same pain over and over again. When I started to read it, I found myself relating to a lot of the stories these women went through. And then she would explain why we choose the people we choose and why we go through it anyway when we know it's not good for us. I thought it was amazing. I have been recommending it to every woman I know ever since. It's an inspiring book and helps you become strong or stronger. It helps you empower yourself to controlling your life the way you would really want to live it. Definitely a book to read and have in your collection!

This is truly one of the best books that I have ever read. From start to finsh, the author captivated me with her spiritual and inspirational style of writing. It is also one of the few books that I did not want to rush to get to the ending. I wanted to savour every last drop of inspiration and knowledge this novel had to offer. I recommend this book to any woman who has ever gone through trials and tribulations in her life. And I don't know any who have'nt. I wish I could have read a book like this a long time ago. I know I would have had a different outlook on life. After reading it, I gave it to my 23 year old daughter to borrow until her copy comes in that I purchased. This is a book you'll want to refer back to time and again. The "valley" she talks about in her book, is what one goes through in life. The "value" is what one learns, when she comes out of the valley, if she truly gets it. There is a whole lot of "value in the valley". This book has really changed my life, and made me a better person. Too bad the rating ONLY went up to five stars. If you or someone you know find yourself in the valley, do yourself a favor and get this book. You will not be sorry.
