“As a grandmother of two beautiful girls, this book scares me. "Bullying" was much more subtle in my day and while I could never "name" it, I recognize it in these pages. What's more, it has infested the workplace, again very subtly, due to business protocol. Parents and teachers owe it to themselves to read this book and become aware so they can help both the victims and perpetrators of this "hidden" social plague. Silence is not an option.”

“This book is an excellent read for anyone who has daughters, nieces, or just plain cares about girls. It brought back a lot of memories for me. The book has some good advice for helping girls deal with bullying and keeping their self-esteem as they move through school.”

“This is an interesting book for young women and grown women to read especially if they have ever experienced bullying, perpetrator or victim, sometime in their life. The testimonies are eye-opening. It reveals many interesting ways and reasons why girls are bullied/bullies and how it affects women into their adult lives. A worthwhile, educational read. ”

Started this book last night and it is a quick read.
My daughter has been bullied by her best friend when they started the new school together. It is terrible of me but I have still so much anger towards my daughter's "best friend". They were friends from kindergarten!
She made life hell at school for my kid.

Forgot to make a JE. Finished it 2 days ago.This book did open my eyes and not in a positive way. To be honest I was kind of shocked but the author is right about lots of things. Especially how girls use each other and how they do not want to confront others. I still am very bad at confrontations and try to avoid arguments. Instead of arguing we learned to ignore people in my family. I hated that so much I decided at about age 20 to stop doing that.
Very interesting read.

“An excellent book for understanding bullying among younger adolescent girls. Helpful for parents as well as for women and adolescents who experienced bullying when they were younger. This author has written other books for the younger girls to read themselves, though I have not read them yet.”

Provides some good strategies for handling difficult friendship situations, but mostly highlights the problem. You'll never want to be popular again.”
