Whose Apple is it, Anyway: Empowering Purpose to Achieve your God-Ordained Destiny is a motivational self-help book by Linda F. Williams. The book is specifically aimed at Christian churchgoers who may be experiencing a loss of faith as life takes them in a direction that they didn’t ever plan for, and whose futile prayers for change seem to be falling on deaf ears. Part devotional guide and part self-help instructional manual, Whose Apple is it, Anyway seeks to highlight wisdom from the Bible as interpreted by the author, and use those morals as guides for self-improvement. The volume also contains examples from the author’s own personal life that inspired her to find her purpose and develop the book so that others may do the same thing.

I’d say that you really have to be a devout Christian to tackle the concepts of Whose Apple is it, Anyway and, if you are, then the book will certainly reward you for your efforts. For myself, I found the central messages to be a little too over-conceptualized and, though the book is exceedingly well-written, I did find myself having to re-read many sections to actually get their message. That said, the message Linda F. Williams conveys to her readers is one of true empowerment, and her personal stories combined with Biblical elements make for a full and insightful read from cover to cover. If you’re already well versed in the world of self-help psychology, then Whose Apple is it, Anyway is a perfect read to add to your collection.

Whose Apple Is It Anyway, in my opinion, is a phenomenal rare gem! This is a book that I've actually prayed for after reading several self improvement books that I just didn't get or struggled to get finish. Through Linda's incredible story of her path to healing, I was not only able to understand every bit of her story, but I could not stop reading. I laughed, I cried, and there were a few times I yelled out 'YES!!' because The information was just clicking and hitting home for me. After reading Whose Apple Is It Anyway, not only is my mindset a whole lot better but I feel as though I have found my true self. I have a better perception of who I am and why I react to certain situations. Armed with my APPLE inventory and FRUITS principles, I know exactly what I want and how to achieve it. If there is only one self improvement book you read this year, I highly recommend Whose Apple Is It Anyway!

I devoured this "apple" like a starving woman with a full-grown tapeworm! I found myself nodding and exclaiming, "Yes!" over and over as the book peeled back my blinders and the truth became evident. The book is well-written in straight talk so it's easy to understand and incorporate into one's knowledge base, but make no mistake: this apple has a lot of flesh. This is no ordinary "self-help" book. Williams dives right into the deep waters and shows us how to swim.

With striking honesty, Williams shares painful lows and triumphant highs with which so many of us can easily identify and gives us the real-world tools we need to combat negativity and find our true purpose in life. I laughed, cried, and took notes like crazy. I cannot recommend "Whose Apple is it, Anyway!" highly enough. For anyone who has experienced difficult relationships (e.g., family, friends, coworkers, self) and behavior patterns we just can't seem to break, this is a MUST READ!
