Favorite quote: "I teach the world how to treat me by the way I treat myself, and the way I present myself" SO TRUE. I am going to try harder on this! Honestly, the title of this book turned me off at first. Who has the authority to tell me how to love an American Man? BUT WOW. This book was beautiful because it involved a strong relationship between the author and her grandparents. I am a SUCKER for grandparent relationships, as I love my grandparents to death. They are my WORLD. Kristine beautifully describes how her grandmother's generation and her own generation clash, and how they learn from each other. Everyone thinks their grandparents are the wisest people on earth, but the grandparents can learn so much from their grandchildren. I read this in an afternoon. I really enjoyed this book and Krissy's story. I'm jealous of how close she is with her grandparents, but grateful that she shared her grandma's advice with this book. While I don't always agree with what her grandma did during her marriage, I appreciate everything she had to say. Her opinion on how to be a woman (not just a wife) is something every woman should hear.
loved it - packed with great insight, but such an infuriating ending!

Not worth reading, once you get the main premise.
