The Same Sweet Girls' Guide To Life: Advice From A Failed Southern Belle    by Cassandra King Order:  USA  Can Maiden Lane, 2014 (2014) Hardcover     Reviewed by Jessica Maguire This unique read from author Cassandra King is packed with useful advice, particularly for the the young generation heading into the real world. What makes this book so unique, you wonder? Well, The Same Sweet Girls' Guide To Life was delivered by King as the commencement speech at her alma mater, the University of Montevallo. King's speech blends humor, poignancy, and practical advice drawn from her own life experiences. Each of the six points of the speech begins with a relevant quote ranging from notables such as Ralph Waldo Emerson to John Green. Perhaps the best advice is about books: 'some might say that we lose ourselves in a good book. In truth, we find ourselves.' I couldn't agree more. Released just in time for Mother's Day and Graduation, The Same Sweet Girls' Guide To Life will make a perfect gift for that special someone. A portion of the proceeds from book sales go to help fund the University of Montevallo's Same Sweet Girls Scholarship Fund.
