The Powder Box Secrets by Carrie Silver-Stock


Genre: Self-help/Inspirational

Doctors have their medical equipment, magicians have their tricks, and teenage girls have The Powder Box Secrets. Overflowing with encouraging messages, straightforward tips, and a lot of common sense, The Powder Box Secrets confronts topics that teenage girls may face from day to day. Being a teenage girl is hard. Not only do you have to deal with peer pressure, parents, grades, and boyfriends, you also have to deal with yourself. However, this well-meaning self-help book shows that it doesn't have to be so hard.

Every teenage girl will find this book relevant. What's amazing with this book is that every topic can be dealt with by just using the seven secrets introduced at the beginning of the book. I love how the secrets are utilized and explained in all the different situations. A thorough guide, this book offers real-life anecdotes from other teenage girls, small quiz questions to ask yourself, and knowledgeable tips. Even if you're not going through any life-changing events, this book will surely change your life after you've read it. The organization is so systematically designed that if you're ever going through any of the situations present in the book, you can easily flip to it for sound advice. Often times, we don't always like to listen to advice that is offered to us; however, this book convinces you to listen. The Powder Secrets is a friend you can trust with all your problems.
