you pick up a book, dont read what its about, and realize the timing and the book were meant for you in the season of life youre in.
Bianca talks specifically to single millennial women about navigating life, how to move from a girl to a woman, and healthy responses to many situations that you will face.
Pulling knowledge from the book of Ruth, she carefully crafted wisdom, stories, facts, and biblical knowledge into a single book that will impact many, I listened to the audiobook and highly recommend that path, Wow! A must have handbook for all young women, Not only does this book break down the book of Ruth, it does so in a way that is relatable to our present day but doesn't take away the original message from the Bible.
Throughout this book there is practical advice and 'gems' that you can refer back to time and time again as you go through each season of your life.
Challenges are not sugar coated but empathy is shared and practical guidance given in a fun, and friendly way, Reading this book I've laughed, I've shed a tear or two on a busy train! and I'm fuelled with food for thought,
All I can say is 'THANK YOU', I will definitely be refering to this book regularly through my journey of adulthood and beyond, I absolutely love Bianca.   When I first started my religious journey, her words spoke to me the most,   This book was difficult for me to get into simply because it seemed to be written for women at a different stage of life than what I am currently in.
  Overall, it still had lessons that I could learn and was a good book, Great book, but not for me in this stage of life, I would absolutely recommend this book to a young, single woman in her twenties possibly earlys, Shes funny, down to earth and relatable, Good read if youre young and just starting out into your adulthood, Im not the millennial target audience for this book, so I dont feel like Im the most qualified to rate how “good” it is, It was an easy read, full of practical and Biblical examples, But she writes for young women starting out on their adult lives and careersnot me, “Goodbye childhood, hello womanhood”!

Ugh, this book it resonated with many things my heart and soul desires, For being in my mids, it was a perfect read, I wish I found it sooner because it would have made a huge impact in my early career, It teaches you how to get rid of childish habits and make steps on how to achieve your career goals, It demonstrates how to be STRONG women, Lastly, this book makes you like about the legacy that you will leave for future generations,

Regardless of age, every women should read this! It goes beyond young adult, There are deep questions that I think a lot of people need to read, This book combines two of my favorite things Bianca Olthoff and the book of Ruth, I have had the pleasure of seeing Bianca preach a few times and she is engaging, funny, and communicates the Word of God effectively, The story of Ruth is my favorite Bible story, So when I heard of this book, I was excited to dive in, Olthoff takes the story of Ruth and illustrates how it has applications for everyday life, She uses Ruth's story to give Biblicallybased, downtoearth advice on a range of topics, from relationships to how to grow in your career, I laughed, found myself nodding along, and felt inspired to make changes in some areas where I have been feeling stuck, This is a great book and I highly recommend it for anyone who is feeling stuck or wanting to reflect on different aspects of their life.
I loved this book!!! I loved how she was so openly honest and explained the story of Ruth in the best way to make it relatable in a way that makes you laugh, cry and then really look at what youre doing in your life!!!
Highly recommend it!!!!!!! Wish I'd had this in my's.
This is the kind of stuff Rachel Hollis WISHES she was dishing out, Girls/ladies do not be deceived by the shallowness of that girl, Bianca may be young but she is on fire! Can't wait to see what she writes as she gets older, Ive seen Pastor Bianca Olthoff speak twice and listened to a lot of messages online that were poignant and powerful! Her book Play With Fire had a huge impact on my heart for ministry and for the power of the Holy Spirit.
How to Have Your Life Not Suck blew away all of my expectations and truly related to the season Im in right now, I recommend this book if youre a woman at all, but especially if youre in your twenties and in any period of transition or waiting! Its funny, fresh, empowering, and jam packed with lifegiving, Biblical truth.
Thanks, Pastor Bianca for another game changer, Great book, but I'm not the intended audience, Definitely recommend this book to a young, single woman, Shes funny and down to earth, Neither myyo son nor I am in the target audience for this book, and I was somewhat off put by the title, Still, we both ended up quite enjoying it,

I had previously heard Olthoff preach, and her speakingslashwriting style is engaging, My son said she comes off as “a little bit of sass and a lot of love, ” We listened to the audio version, read by the author, during our commuting time together,

The section on dating is well outside my current interests, but I think that discussions of friendship, work, faith, and redemption have universal applicability.
The Book of Ruth from the Old Testament provides the foundation for the entirety of Olthoffs message, I laughed, I nodded, I highlighted, I exclaimed,"YES!" with this one, Bianca Oltzhoff is a firecracker who keeps it real in "How To Have Your Life Not Suck: Becoming Today Who You Want To Be Tomorrow, " I made lists of people who I wanted to recommend this book to and learned a lot from it myself!

We have many within our society who, honestly, haven't had the support and encouragement they need to move forward into healthy adulthood.
I know at different times in my life I wished there had been people who could step up and help, giving me healthy advice, Bianca is that adult who can tell it like it is and still be kind enough to encourage you towards positive change,

Through the anchor of the biblical story of Ruth and Naomi, Olthoff shares specific reasons why Ruth is someone we should follow after, learn from and draw inspiration from.
The complex story of what Ruth walked through is broken down into subjects for chapters,

Olthoff shares the stories of unique people she has ministered to through the years as well as examples of the struggles everyone deals with as they become an adult.
The book addresses so many things that it is difficult to list them all, but be assured the important things are fully covered, Olthoff also gives insight into how our view of ourselves and who Christ sees us as can often differ, I love that she's not afraid to address difficult topics along with adding the insight from a therapist at the end of each chapter, This book is for anyone who has had issues with accepting the truth that adulting is hard to navigate!

One of my favorite parts of the book centered around her family's powerful story of redemption, second chances and new life in Christ.
You will want to keep that highlighter handy, trust me!

If you've never heard of Bianca Olthoff, get ready, She's a powerhouse of a Bible teacher, honest and vulnerable, She has a great sense of humor and a passion for loving people, She has served in many ministry capacities and does not shy away from tough issues, She serves as pastor alongside her husband in Orange County, CA at the church they founded, The Father's House, She is also active in the non profit world, running a prision ministry called In The Name of Love, If you enjoy this book, then also take a look at her prior book, "Play With Fire, "

I was excited to read an early copy, thanks to Zondervan Publishing, I chose to review and all opinions are my own,.cute book, a student of mine was reading it and I started the read to get a feel for what she was reading, as I was just getting to know her.
I read it off and on for about a year, I enjoyed the easy to relate to stories and the incorporation of the story of Ruth woven into the lessons, Some parts were a bit cheesy but it made the read fun at times, I felt that the message at some points teetered on having some “bootstrap” theory backing, but I dont think that was on purpose, I think its some peoples way of explaining things and what helps them get through tough times.
Overall, cute read. This book reads so quickly, I have heard Bianka speak before, and she writes just like she speaks, She packs a powerful punch but also brings a laugh, and add some serious wisdom in between, At first I was worried that this book was covering too broad of a topic, until I learned that it follows the book of Ruth, Bianka takes the biblical book of Ruth and pulls out modern life lessons in three main categories for young women, The categories are dating, faith, and Adulting, It is a good look into this book of the Bible, and a good opportunity to reflect in your own heart, Bianka also ends each chapter with comments from a psychologist, I admire the way she acknowledges the need for an expert in talking about heavy topics, Love this book! And love the author pretty sure we're soul sisters and would be best friends in real life, haha,

She takes the book of Ruth from the Old Testament in the Bible and uses it as a guide

for how to live life well, from dating and relationships to being a successful person in the work force to trusting God in all things.


Equally hilarious, downtoearth and with words of significance and impact, this is going on my faves and willgiftittoothers lists, This book felt more along the lines of "selfhelp" than Olthoff's first book, but many of the situations she was writing about, I've already been through.
While reading her first book prior to this one obviously isn't a requirement, I was glad I had because it gave more details to some of the situations Olthoff wrote about in this book, but didn't get into the nittygritty of.

I liked how Olthoff incorporated the story of Ruth in this book because it made me dive deeper into that book of hte Bible and notice some new things about it.
But, it's a small book which means that after a while Olthoff got a bit repetitive in her examples from it,
Overall I think this book would be great for someone younger high school or college aged, It just felt a little young and not as relevant for me, .
