It’s finally here! Untangle Your Emotions comes out tomorrow in stores and online for purchase. Due to my needing to have the book read out loud to me, I haven’t completed the advance reader copy that was sent to me. I can’t write a review on the entire book, yet. Based on having only heard a little over half of the book, I would definitely recommend it.
Untangle Your Emotions, written by Jennie Allen, is written for people who have difficulty identifying, experiencing, or expressing emotions. It’s also written for people of faith who believe that God doesn’t want people to feel anything but love, joy, peace, and other “comfortable” emotions. Others who might find this book helpful are those who wrestle with the purpose of emotions that cause upset.
Untangle Your Emotions is written in a clear conversational tone. While reading the book, the reader is made to feel like they are having a one-on-one conversation with Ms Allen over a cup of coffee or tea. Ms Allen shares examples from her life that are very relatable. She comes alongside the reader and walks with them through this journey of emotions. Ms Allen doesn’t preach or talk down to her readers. She pushes and encourages them to help them through their experiences, which may be similar to her own.
I look forward to finishing Untangle Your Emotions. I will post a full review when I do. Look for Untangle Your Emotions wherever books are sold. If possible, please seek out an independently owned bookstore near you. Supporting a small business is a great way to be engaged in your local community’s economy!
