This book overall was average. The writing style and the author's narrative throughout was not my favorite. The information presented about the strength, dignity, and grace of a woman was good.

I did appreciate the content shared starting with chapter 2 and going forward. The information presented demonstrated the true elegance of a woman. It gave me comfort to understand and continue to practice these behaviors and attitudes.

My take away is that women have power without being aggressive, controlling, and manipulative...all of which are derived from anger.

More importantly, the presence of an active, strong, and spiritual father is essential. Esther had that in Mordecai. The importance of a father bonding with i.e. raising, teaching, and yes molding their daughter is often times missing -- in the late 20th century and current 21st century family structures.
