APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
How’s this for self-examination: “I wasn’t crazy. I was a goddamn cheetah.” That’s blogger and motivational speaker Glennon Doyle, author of the Oprah-endorsed Love Warrior, near the start of this riveting memoir. Doyle’s path to cheetah-hood was anything but easy. With fearless candour, she describes how she overcame a once-happy marriage torpedoed by multiple infidelities, eating disorders and substance abuse. Her memoir also chronicles her gradual acceptance of her attraction to her now-wife, US soccer star Abby Wambach. Doyle’s unadorned, diary-like writing style places us right next to her as she bumps along this roller-coaster ride. Her solution to overcoming all of her obstacles? She stopped letting others (including her church) determine how she lived her life—a simple but challenging philosophy that reverberates throughout Untamed. More than just a revealing memoir, it’s an inspiring listen that made us want to tap into our own feral state of mind.
Customer Reviews
Unexpected
Galway through the book I am annoyed as every time the word “women” is used “people” should be used instead… and then I stood abruptly corrected.
Beautiful book full is wisdom brought forth in unexpected anecdotes. A must re-read.
Untamed - Glennon Doyle
A game changer. Compelling and totally brilliant.
The best book I have ever read
This book carefully pries your eyes open to how life is tough yet beautiful for everyone. Glennon explores her life experiences and analogies that have helped her grow, a gateway to developing yourself as a woman. A book I will keep with me until the end of my days.
