So Close to Amazing: A Review

This book is authored by KariAnne Wood and contains stories of a DIY (Do it Yourself) life gone wrong and learning to find the beauty in every imperfection.
While this book is specially written for women I enjoyed it very much.

The author says:

This book is a celebration of you and me- the incredible, awesome, yes –we-sometimes-mess-it-all-up you and me. It’s my own story of figuring out that perfection is overemphasized and overrated, of learning from mistakes and rejoicing over every victory, no matter how small.

Because when you embrace the imperfect you God created you to be, you’ll discover the amazing that was there all along.
KariAnne tells how she and her husband living in Texas decided they would like to move to the country and so they moved to Kentucky!

So they need to sell their house-read about how a couple knocks at their door and looks at the house and says they want to buy it.
A few interesting quotes from the book to describe KariAnne and things she learned.

Embrace the you God created you to be and discover the amazing that was there all along.
God has been there all along. Waiting. Inviting us to pause and listen.

We were here for the lessons we were going to learn.
Every house needs a happily-ever-after.

We can make our own plans, but the Lord gives the right answer.
Sometimes what looks like trash is actually treasure.

Through my vulnerability I had opened an unexpected door for friendship.
When the river is rising and sandbagging is in your future, it’s time to call a friend, Or a town.

But in the end Truly, all we needed was a little faith.
