COMMUNITY REVIEWS
If you have boundary difficulties, this book is worth a read submitted by kimberlina on June 14, 2020, 2:47pm Some helpful insight into why a person might have boundary issues and steps to take to begin to set boundaries. One of my favorite lines is, "boundaries are to keep the good in and the bad out".
Thought provoking submitted by Gr33nl3af on August 10, 2023, 6:56pm This book was very thought provoking and meaningful. I will be reading it again very soon! One of those books that you absorb more each time you read it!
