A Different Kind of Love Story is a fabulously written personal life story from Landra Young Hughes. In A Different Kind of Love Story, Landra shares a journey starting in her teenage years to being a young mother. She was raised the daughter of a famous pastor and endured some turbulent times as a family that were very public, not necessarily by choice. Landra then went on to develop an eating disorder and went to treatment for her eating disorder. Although this book does share about her eating disorder it is applicable to many.
On page 122 Landra shares a label that women need to put on themselves. It is “Chosen By God”. This really resonated with me!
On page 148 Landra writes, “Maybe you need to keep your personal life private because that’s what’s been modeled for you. Maybe your parents never talked about spiritual or faith based topics and it’s just a foreign concept to you. Maybe it feels weird to let others in when you have doubts because you are afraid of looking stupid or weak or like you’re not a ‘good’ Christian.” Laundre then goes on to share how opening up your personal life will deepen your spiritual life.
A Different Kind of Love Story is full of wisdom, personal experiences and encouragement.
A Different Kind of Love Story is an excellent book that I would recommend. I was given a free copy from the publisher for my honest review which I was happy to do.
