About the book:
Ariel Baxter has just moved into the neighborhood of her dreams. The chaos of domestic life and the loneliness of motherhood, however, moved with her. Then she meets her neighbor, Justine Miller. Justine ushers Ariel into a world of clutter-free houses, fresh-baked bread, homemade crafts, neighborhood play dates, and organization techniques designed to make marriage better and parenting manageable.
Soon Ariel realizes there is hope for peace, friendship, and clean kitchen counters. But when rumors start to circulate about Justine’s real home life, Ariel must choose whether to believe the best about the friend she admires or consider the possibility that “perfection” isn’t always what it seems to be.
A novel for every woman who has looked at another woman’s life and said, “I want what she has,” She Makes It Look Easy reminds us of the danger of pedestals and the beauty of authentic friendship.
My thoughts:
Never got this book to review so I don't have an opinion to share.

Yes I have been jealous of someone else's life. On the outside it seemed this person had it all but it was all a front. That taught me a big lesson. If I accept my own life I will be a much happier person and I am!! I found out life is not greener over on someone else's side of the fence!
She Makes It Look Easy sounds like a great read. I'd love to win a copy of it.
Blessings!

Too many times. Things are seldom what they seem.

I don't remember being that jealous of another that I would want their lifestyle. But there have been times when I have envied some particular aspect of another's life.

I have had people tell me they are jealous of me or think that I have it all together and I think, "If they only knew!!!"
I have been jealous of other people, I have had to realize that often people look better to outside people than they real are, so I try to keep that in mind!

Oh my, yes, I have to confess - I have envied another's life until we became better friends and began to reaalize why God had put us in each other's lives. There is purpose in his actions. I like the title of this book. Thank you for this giveaway and the chance to win it. I hope I win!
