I found my nonfiction book this week, Growing Up Duggar, and I am very pleased with it so far. Growing Up Duggar is written by Jana, Jill, Jinger, and Jessa Duggar. The four Duggar daughters from the TLC show, 19 Kids and Counting, wrote this book to talk about relationships. The kinds of relationships they mainly focus on in the book is your relationship with yourself, your parents, your siblings, friends, guys, your country, culture, and with the world.

I read about what they spoke on about a relationship with yourself and I was very impressed. Jana wrote about how she'd see what her sisters were wearing to go somewhere and change into something more like what they had on. I immediately connected to her because I have also done that before. Today,  many girls focus on making sure they wear the cutest outfit or don't want to go out not looking nice. They'll ask what their friends are going to wear. Then, compare it to what they are going to wear. I think that we get so caught up in the fact of comparing ourselves to others. It's very normal to do that, but we lose the idea of what we actually want and focus on impressing others instead.

These girls are wonderful writers and I'm so happy to be reading this book. I found a book that I wanted to read about, and that is people impacting others in a good way. This is the first book from the Duggar's that I am reading, and I'm excited to read more about what they have to say. They definitely have impacted me and I only just started reading it.
