This book checks all of the boxes that you would expect a Christian self help book to check. The author Ann tells stories about her own experiences with discontentment against the backdrop of raising kids and living in faith. The stories don't always match with the title of the chapter, but that's ok. She refers to bible passages or other religious figures to add to the point she's trying to make.
Ann's writing seems to be more serious than some of the other authors in this space. She doesn't tell over the top embarrassing stories to make you laugh out loud because that's not her style. She'll throw in an oldie but goodie reference (she made me want to go find and watch the movie The End!) and joke here and there to make the reader smile, but overall she sticks to the seriousness of the problems of discontentment and mental health issues. There are certainly readers who will relate to her and gain wisdom from this book.

Do you realize you may believe what our culture says is fulfillment. Do you know how empty comparison leaves you? Do you really know how to be fully content? If you answered these questions with a no then I’m going to suggest you read this book. Ann sits down with you as if she were here face to face and places her hands on your cheeks and tells you how to find contentment the real Godly kind that is there even when life unravels and doesn’t go how you think it should!!!

I just did not like this book. I am not sharing this review on social media because it doesn't seem fair to hate a book because the author rambles and just tells story after personal story without really tying it to anything heavier or more meaningful. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but I didn't find anything original here.

Feeling discontented?
Pick this book up and read it as the author shares her experiences and the way to move out of discontentment.
Very good read. We could all use these Biblical truths in our lives.
Thanks to the publisher and netgalley for allowing me to read and advanced copy. This is my honest opinion.

bought this book thinking it would help me with my discontentment. The author spoke about her struggles with it and made some good points, but I felt it was lacking in concrete steps to help with discontentment. I was hoping that at the end of each chapter the author would have some Bible verses associated with the topic and questions to go over about them. She included Scripture throughout, but I was looking for something more applicable and less a story of someone's life. If you know from the onset this is what you get, you may enjoy the book more than I did.

Very satisfying read. It helps you see you are not alone and your feelings matter. In this book, Ann C. Sullivan shares from personal experiences and from other sources about finding satisfaction in life. I believe that Ann Sullivan shows us that there are other ways to become satisfied in life with God.

"Unsatisfied" is a book that encourages the reader to see past the fluff of what the world offers to seek true contentment. Author Ann C Sullivan contemplates the longing that few seem to be able to satisfy: that of being content in our current station in life. Scripture mentions this often, usually attributed to Paul, who talks of being in plenty and in want, yet still feeling content with either status.
Ann shares her battle with a panic disorder, trying to discern what her illness was and how to treat it for 13 years. She speaks of her life before and after her diagnosis. Finding contentment is not a quick process, but it can be a manageable one if we commit to it. Far too often we continue to wish for more than we need, or envy those that have what we want. Could we really be satisfied with less? Do we already have too much?

Within her stories of friends, community as well as her own private, personal battles with learning to find the silver linings while finding comfort in the imperfect, Ann's writing can be all at once personal and encouraging. I found myself highlighting and marking quotes to share, even those I feel I may need daily reminders of in my office or home. I have never heard or read any of Ann's work prior to this, but I am excited I had the chance to be an advanced reader thanks to the author and #Netgalley. All opinions are my own.

Many people say they are not satisfied with their lives. But, do they pause and consider the reason? In this compelling book, author Ann C. Sullivan shares from personal experiences and from other sources about finding satisfaction in life. This is a good book to read more than once. I received a complimentary copy of the book. No review was required.

Very satisfying read. It helps you see you are not alone and your feelings matter. Dig a little and you can find your contentment in whatever situation.
