Review

“Setting Boundaries with Difficult People provides excellent insight and step-by-step action for every reader. I highly recommend this book. In fact, you should probably buy at least two of them―one for yourself and one to give to someone else. It is that good.”
―Terry Whalin, publisher, editor, and writer

“Allison Bottke has written a helpful and inspiring book on how to live with and manage difficult relationships at home, at work, and in our community. We all have people in our lives who challenge us, and yet God loves them as much as he loves us! So the task is to be kind, loving, grace-filled, and firm about how we wish to be treated. After reading this book you'll be well-equipped to do all of these things.”
―Karen O'Connor, author of Gettin' Old Ain't for Wimps and The Upside of Downsizing

“Setting Boundaries with Difficult People by Allison Bottke is an easy-to-read, encouraging book for those dealing with near-to-impossible situations and relationships in life that strain us beyond measure. Filled with heart-catching insight (you'll see yourself and your own situation here!), this helpful book brings ‘S-a-n-i-t-y’ to the situation and offers deeply spiritual and down-to-earth, practical advice for handling the tough-but-tender relationships in life. I am pleased to heartily recommend it―and any other publication by this wonderful Christian writer.”
