About book Je Suis Une Créature Émotionnelle (2011)
EMPOWERING........I absolutely loved this book, it literally just opened me up. I am 19 years and I thought Okay this book is going to be for younger girls ,but it wasnt. This book really made me think about the possitive side of being a girl and inspired me. this book will have you so wrapped up in it ,in the midst of reading this book I immediately started praying for the girls all over the world who have been sex slaves ,sold into slavery,who have contracted diseases from the men raping them, and for the girls working for pocket change. I lieterally could not put this book down it was so moving and reminded me that I trully am blessed. I recommend this book to any woman even ifthey have already gone through puberty or whatever. Its a great read!!! En esta recopilación de historias ficticias se muestran diferentes monólogos que hablan desde el miedo de no ser aceptada por los demás hasta situaciones relacionadas con la esclavitud sexual contadas desde la perspectiva de jóvenes mujeres, lo que hace sentír esto un poco más real. La fluidez en la que se cuentan las historias así como los diversos temas de los cuales hablan hizo de esta lectura interesante e intrigante. Todas comparten el hecho del ser mujer desde distintas perspectivas. A pesar de ser historias ficticias, nos muestra cerca cara de la realidad que se vive en otros lugares en el mundo, así como situaciones que a veces creemos muy alejadas de nuestra realidad pero que en realidad ocurren, pero queremos no hacer caso a eso. Además Ensler nos invita a celebrar lo que la feminidad consta, sin importar los prejuicios o lo que la sociedad nos hace creer de nosotras mismas. Debemos enfrentar muchas adversidades durante nuestra vida, tal vez algunas chicas la tienen aún más complicado que otras, pero eso no cambia el hecho de que debemos luchar para lograr lo que queremos. La única persona que debemos hacer sentir orgullosa es a nosotras mismas, no importa la presión que podamos sentir, debemos librarnos de ese pensamiento de querer complacer a los demás.

I am not the audience for this book-it is written for teenage girls, not a 35 year old mother of three. But, I began crying as soon as I cracked the introduction because it was as if Eve Ensler knew the deepest, darkest parts of me. So, I read on. And the adult me disappeared more and more with each word until I was whispering the pieces to the awkward teenage girl that is still inside me. And, I heard her cry out in understanding. The book was like a balm to the soul of that 16 year old girl that was awkward and prone to tears and carried around a tome of Sylvia Plath poetry because it seemed that she was the only one that had ever understood the depths of emotion that she lived in. Thank you, Eve Ensler for writing straight out of your soul so that others can heal. Thank you.

This is one of those books that everyone needs to read. And no, I don't just mean "every girl". EVERYONE. Every single person with a beating heart. This book will move you to tears and make you really truly think about what it's like to be a girl. No, it's not all sugar, spice, and everything nice. It's painful and hard and crazy and beautiful. We're all emotional creatures when you get right down to it. Sometimes being an emotional creature is hard, but I've often heard that the most healing thing is to remember that other people feel this way too. Sometimes tomorrow has come and gone and things haven't gotten better. But my point is that you aren't alone in this crazy world and this book proves exactly that. Go read it asap.
