A review by sofibatt
Untamed by Glennon Doyle

2.0

I think the book brings up great points to chew over, but there are themes that have me questioning the book throughout. It’s a book steeped wholly in individualism, which might be empowering to some on a surface level. But to disregard our human need for connection and community by not giving a damn about others? Yeesh.

Several times Glennon talked about right vs wrong and how they’re just indoctrination tactics. Yes and no. I could see where she was trying to go with it, but it was so poorly executed that someone could’ve easily walked away with the message that morality is crap and just do what you want with no consequences. Morality demands more context and deeper connections than blanket pseudo-motivational statements.
