Go Bravely is broken up into chapters with each one showing a different part that we are all struggling with. At the end of each character is a Think Critically portion where Emily poses questions or affirmations for us to do or remember as we are finding our way in the world.
Go Bravely is one of those books that I was skeptical of at first. But it turned out to be one that I absolutely loved.
Emily talks about some of the big things that affect all of us that are young people in today’s society. From bullying to social media, body image and trying to figure out your place in the world. She does this by sharing her own stories and life experiences while also showing us how to live the best life we can to help others and to be kind. While this is a book of faith, its teaching can apply to everyone. Not just too young women, but to everyone. We live in a society that is constantly pushing us to do more and more while enjoying less and less.
This book states, again and again, to live life through what you believe is correct while also making sure not to put anyone down if they don’t share your same beliefs of feelings on something. To me, this is something that is very important and has seemed to leave most peoples minds sadly.
So much of this book really resounded with me and I know I will be reading it again in the future.
