Book Reviews
"Happily, Ever After... is not what I thought" is written by an amazing woman who lived through trauma and transcended to a new level of courage, awareness, and wisdom.
Elizabeth documents her journey from an intelligent, independent, professional woman to a woman in despair and her journey to a new life in an inspirational and easy-to-read story. She is a wonderful role model of strength and resilience. Enjoyed it immensely."
"I identified with every word. Lovely seems like an odd word to use to describe a book about abuse and recovery, but the word feels right. It is well-written, and approaches a difficult subject with a constructive, healing, approach. Great book for those with questions about their current situation, those recovering from abuse, or those seeking to understand the experience of a friend or loved one."
"A story of hope and a brighter future.
Very well written account about a professional, high achieving woman’s personal journey about getting out from a suffocating abusive marriage and regaining her independence and sense of worth and well-being. Her sincere hope is to help other women who may be going through similar struggles and educating them, so they won’t have to live through what she did."

“Christine Sarno-Doyle’s book, Your Inside Shape, provides a gentle and positive nudge in the right direction for children of all ages. Its pages offer cheerful, bright illustrations and clever verse designed to help youngsters realize and celebrate not only their own unique potential, but that of those around them. Highly recommended for parents to share with their children!”

“Your Inside Shape delivers an important message to children about how special we all are. It’s a great book and perfect to read with my classes. Older children will enjoy it too. A picture book may be geared toward
younger children, but the message in this book is one that children of all ages will benefit from.”
—Andrea Couvee, Elementary School Teacher, 25 years

“Another splendid and amazing book by Christine Sarno-Doyle. We absolutely loved her previous book, Your Inside Shape. This book delivers what every child needs to hear – it is ok to be you and be unique.
She nails it with by asking, “Who’s going to be you if you want to be someone else?” This book brings along characters, like Perry the Porcupine, to help Darcie realize how special she is. A chapter book for the older children that continues to encourage children to be comfortable with who they are.”
“Once again, Christine Sarno-Doyle has her finger on the pulse of what today’s kids need to hear. Last year this author gave us Your Inside Shape, a brightly colored book for younger children, celebrating their inner selves over outward appearances. In Who’s Going to Be You? Ms. Sarno-Doyle carries a similar message of positivity and self-acceptance to kids roughly between the ages of 8 and 11. Your mileage may vary – even as an adult I found the book’s primary messages - being open to listening to inner wisdom and nurturing one’s own inner strengths – to be an inspiration. In a day and age where even elementary school children are caught up in comparing themselves to others and struggles with self-esteem, Who’s Going to Be You? is a welcome voice in helping kids feel good about themselves.”
