Customer Reviews

The Venus Chronicles

Carol Gee's book, The Venus Chronicles, is a delightful collection of coming of age stories. Even though her growing up and mine were worlds apart, I found we share many of the same memories and I enjoyed reliving them while reading her book. We are all members of the same sisterhood!

Women Are From Venus

Carol Gee's The Venus Chronicles is a poignant, humorous and uplifting look into the hearts of women. For those men who, like me, needed to understand why more than 3 pair of shoes are necessary or why women simply have to go to the bathroom together, this book is a must read. For women who need a refreshing reminder of those joys and sorrows unique to their gender, this book is a must read. Enjoy this book and get it for your friends and family members so that they can enjoy it too.

The Venus Chronicles: Stories for Men and Women

Carol Gee's "Venus Chronicles" is a collection of incredible life stories written about women, but designed for both genders. Her insight and humor provide us with the abilty to question our own stories as well as laugh at ourselves. Her short vignettes of experiences in the life of women are archetypal in nature and give us clues to how to travel a path of heart. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is wanting a break from our current events as well as a gift to all your friends who want to renew their spirits.Kevin "Doc" Klein, President, ELI International
