You Can Judge a Book By Its Cover I think I would classify this book as a teaching memoir because it’s so much more than a personal account of the author’s healing jourbey. She shares the prayers, steps and tools to find peace for yourself. The journal prompts are so insightful and the “Melting the Ice” chapter encourages deeper reflection. I appreciate the curation of honest self-inquiry and action steps for those of us on the journey. Read more
