Beautifully Said: Quotes by Remarkable Women and Girls Designed to Make You Think (Volume 1) (Everyday Inspiration, 1)

If you are a member of my family or circle of friends, stop reading this now unless you want to know what you’re getting for Christmas or birthdays. “Beautifully Said” is written by the authors of Quotabelle, a website that’s known for its well-researched quotes by women and girls. Now they’ve stepped out with a book that’s both smart and special. This isn’t just a book of quotes. Authors, Pauline Weger and Alicia Williamson also provide backstory on each woman and girl. The writing style is pristine, contemporary and approachable. “Beautifully Said” is a distinctive size; 7x7 inches and hefty with nearly 300 pages. It’s never dull, with color throughout, lighthearted design touches and classy typography. My copy of “Beautifully Said” arrived this week and I cannot stop picking it up to read a few pages or entire chapters. This is a book to keep, to give and read over and over again.

A timeless book with messages for women of all ages. I bought a copy when it was first published in 2017, and recently gave copies to my four nieces - ages 14 to 31. I love that it features both quotes and background information from so many diverse and interesting girls and women. An easy history lesson, and true breath of fresh air in our world of social media images. The perfect gift for a high school or college graduation, new job, new adventure, or just a nice addition to a coffee or bedside table. I highly recommend!

I am a quote collector. My walls at work are covered in quotes. I am always looking for something to inspire me or my students and this book is truly inspirational. I strive to be authentic in the quotes I use and I always hesitate to use a quote when I am unsure of the source. The ladies at Quotabelle have done all the hard work for me. The quotes are organized by category (She Gives, She Teaches, etc.), with a brief biography of the source, providing context and content in a visually appealing style. The best part -- the quotes are by women, only women, from all walks of life. There is truly something for every situation in this book. The pages are so beautiful, I think I may need another copy so I can frame some pages for my office.

Good for a gift.

I am so impressed with what the publisher has done to create a special book. It is sized just right to be convenient sitting on a coffee table or in a book shelf. The content is concise and nicely displayed with typography that matches the eloquence of the words. I think the editors did a wonderful job of researching, categorizing, and selecting inspirational content from a range of important women and this book is a worthy reflection of that effort - a stylish gift at a modest price.

Let me start by saying THIS IS THE GIFT OF THE YEAR! hopefully my peeps aren't reading this review because they are all receiving a copy from me. Young women, young girls, all ages - this book has inspiration and thought provoking subject on every page. It compiles and sources quotes from women. It includes women from a variety of different backgrounds, both historical figures and those still alive. I am so excited to share 'Beautifully Said'. I got my pre-orders this week!! Makes for a wonderful book to pick up for great moments of inspiration. Can't wait to gift this to my 15 yr old granddaughter and many other very special and ever so strong women in my life! P.S. Kudos to your art and design team for coordinating with my breezeway decor. LOL

"Beautifully Said" is Beautifully done!! Every aspect of this book from cover, interior graphics to content is eye, mind & soul catching. I opened package in presence of 2 women I didn't know as couldn't wait 'till I got home & their gasps of appreciation & delight echoed mine. Second "ah ha moment" was when young, single father of 2 young girls I care for, picked up my copy so very gently & asked "How do I get this?" then proceeded to ask about its history and the story behind QUOTABELLE. What more validation could one ask for ???

Liked book but cover was scuffed up on back and on title on the side. I’d ordered fir a gift but can’t use.

Definitely beautiful quotes love this book

I liked the book. I did not like the condition it arrived in. It was intended to be a gift.

Schönes Buch, sehr dickes Hardcover = stabil. Habe es schon oft verschenkt und es kam immer sehr gut an :)
