In a review by Amy Lignor for Reader Views, she writes:

"Catherine L. Owens, and this incredible book that felt as if it was written just for me has managed to make my 'top ten' list of 2021.

Strength and boldness are taught to us by this author, who splits her book into collections where you will find poems, statements, famous quotes, and more that will address the wide range of subjects that females face.

On each page, the author shows how to transform disappointments into opportunities; she teaches ways that women can escape the 'cage' society puts them in and allows them to see the incredible person they were born to be.

'Shine On You Crazy Diamond', I believe, has no equal on bookshelves today. I would recommend reading this and then passing it to all generations of females in your family."
