I bought a book two weeks ago and now I can’t keep myself from not reading it. This book is called Why Guys Like Mean Girls and the reason why I got this is because I have never experienced a healthy relationship with a man. I have always been the one who has struggled, who has been abused, who has been manipulated and lied to all the time and that’s why I decided to read something new so that I could improve myself and so that I can understand why I could be the problem. For now it’s been two weeks since I started reading it. There are around 240 pages so it’s gonna take approximately a month for me to finish reading it since I also have other stuff to do like school, university applications so that’s why it’s gonna take a longer time for me to finish reading it. It’s a kind of book that helps you to understand the problems and cons of yourself that you might not notice. For me I personally bought this book because as I said I want to become a woman who is actually gonna put men in their places and I want to become a woman who knows how to do that so this is kind of a book that you need to buy if you really have struggles in relationships or in having bones with a guy. I would for sure love to read something similar because I feel like they help me with my character development and they help me to understand myself more. With the help of these books I understand what my disadvantages are in myself and I try to improve myself by this way.
