Review of advance copy received from Goodreads Giveaways
Even though I am not the specific target demographic for this book, I read it with my three daughters in mind, and I can see the immense value in it. Dannah Eve provides solid, actionable advice on trusting your instincts and staying safe. While the writing can be a bit redundant at times, that repetition actually works well here—it reinforces the logic across different situations to make sure the lessons stick. I’ll definitely be passing this knowledge on.

Solid advice in an approachable format. Easy to read and well organized. I don't want to live my life in fear or paranoia, but this gives some good guidance for what to do if I find myself in an unexpected situation.
