Laura Walker has done it again. In this, her latest collection of fall down funny reading, she offers us her laughter-filled take on the ups and downs of female friedship. Sorry guys. Girl Time is just for us. This book kept both me and my nineteen-year-old daughter (who was intrieged by the darling cover) in stitches. Laura's commentary on friendships between various members of the fairer sex is right on. As a woman from the Texas, she nails us southern gals. (Bless her heart.) This book would make a wonderful gift for a friend or female family member -- would especially be great to take along to give as friendship gifts on a girls' night out or weekend away.
Girl Time
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
A "6 Star" laugh your butt off book! The cat & dog stories had me "Howling" (no pun intended). If you love animals, you will laugh out loud! It is rare when any book makes me laugh out loud. And even rarer when I laugh at the same parts over & over again! Reading 'Girl Time' brought back my own memories of friends, places and times I never want to forget. I called my sister in Oregon, we laughed together as I read her several sections; she finally told me to "shut up" and send her the book. She "didn't want me to spoil the ending". I told her there is no ending. When she got the book; she called me and we "howled" together again. Laura Jensen Walker now has two devoted fans!

And get ready to laugh, nod and even shed a few tears! This tale of slumber parties, changing relationships, girlfriend groups and friends old and new is just plain fun. Each page made reflect with joy on the women God has brought into my life and swell with anticipation (well, I was already swollen, but you get the idea) at the new friendships God has for me. If you can't think of the right gift for one of your "girls", this is it. Buy a stack of 'em!
A Book Every Girl Needs

This book was a fun and easy read! Laura really knows how to make a light moment of the things that "girls" are into. I especially love her stories of her southern friend's need to "balance" her jewelry--something a Texas girl can relate to. Laura's self-deprecating humor is such that you don't feel the need to feel sorry for her--you're too busy laughing alongside her. This is a fun book to give to your sister, mom or friend and it makes for great beach reading.
A Must Share Book!

I love my husband. I really do. But sometimes I just need to spend time with my girlfriends. Thanks to Girl Time I feel like those hours I spent with girlfriends were not only fun, but somehow prepared me for life. Since I have more living to do I guess I still need my girlfriends. I love Laura Jensen Walker's writing, but I am a bit miffed at her right now. Thanks to her wonderful book, I will have less money for food and electricity because I need to buy this book by the case so I can give a copy to all my girlfriends. I love the stories, the humor, and the excitement on each page. I especially like the girl pearls and the wonderful quotes sprinkled throughout the book. This is a must share book for any women who has ever been or had a girlfriend.
