I’m so honored that Publishers Weekly recently featured a review of AWAKE: “Jen Hatmaker’s Memoir of Love and Survival.”
Here’s an excerpt from the article:
Honesty isn’t a problem for Hatmaker, who is the author of more than a dozen books chiefly aimed at Christian women, some of which were taken out of print back in 2016. This new memoir is a change of direction, addressing the dark side of purity culture, of male-dominated church hierarchy, of how women were taught to diminish themselves and not trust their instincts or their bodies.
Awake is also an emotional dive into her discovery of who she is as a single woman, mother of five, sister, daughter, friend, and follower of Jesus. Chapters can be several pages long or one paragraph, poetry is scattered throughout, and it ranges from hilarious to tearful.
