Every Woman Must Read This Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book is a must for every wife and mother who feels it's never her turn to live an interesting, exciting life. The author tells a story of her remarkable journey and self-discovery with simple elegance of a good writer. Reader beware: after turning the last page you might be tempted to turn on your computer and buy an airplane ticket! A great book to take along on a plane ride, too!
Extraordinary story and beautifully written!

This was one of the best books I have read in a long time! Ms. Shalom's book reads like a piece of fast-paced fiction; however, it tells the true story of a middle-aged woman really looking to find herself and rekindle the spark of a long, staid marriage, and she is completely rewarded in the end. I loved hearing about all her travel adventures and wish that I could tag along with her on a trip sometime! One of the amazing things about this memoir is to read how she sets her mind to doing something and then to read about the daring, sometimes scary, sometimes hilarious ways she ends up accomplishing this goal! She does not take "no" for an answer! I truly admire Ms. Shalom; what a feisty, spunky woman - a real dynamo! Her story is simply remarkable, and she delivers it in a totally readable, uplifting and enjoyable way.
A Marriage Sabbatical by Sabina Shalom

There are not enough words to express how much I enjoyed this book. The author was writing from her heart. I truly felt that I was having the experiences and was on the journey with her. She brings you into her book. Cheryl Jarvis' book, The Marriage Sabbatical, does not compare to the wonderful book by Sabina Shalom. I noticed and I think it is unfair that Ms. Jarvis' book gets listed before Ms. Shalom's book especially since Ms. Shalom's book was written prior to Ms. Jarvis. I wish everyone would buy and have the experience and the joy of reading "A Marriage Sabbatical" by SABINA SHALOM.
Outstanding

This is a book I read a few years ago and have shared it with many of my friends, men and women alike. Without exception, all reviews are 5 stars and more. This vignette of an adventuresome, middle age woman brings surprises at every turn. Describing her trip around the world with nothing more than a backpack and a few hundred dollars, her writing style is exceptional and colorfully descriptive. A must read!
