FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

We have no intention of explaining how this correspondence which we now offer to the public fell into our hands.

Inside you will find letters exchanged between the diabolical Madame Hoaxrot and her junior devil Hemlock, who are scheming against a young woman’s relationship with her Creator.

They plot to sabotage every feature of her life from sex to female friendship to empathy, motherhood, and aging.

Ladies, this book will give you the eyes to see the feminine vices that hide behind feminine virtues.

I bought it for my wife and she loved it!

Since my wife and I was familiar with Screwtape letters by C.S. Lewis and found out that this was a spin off of that book, I decided to buy for my wife. At the outset she was already excited about the creativity of making a Screwtape letters type of book for women. Tilly Dillehay did not disappoint in making this book. I never saw my wife read a book so quickly, she just couldn't put it down. It was so good as a husband hearing about the things she was learning from the book. From a husband to another husband who may be thinking about buying this book for your wife, you will not regret your decision.

Phenomenal Book!

Absolutely loved this book! I wish I had ordered more, I’d gift them to all my Christian, female friends! Would recommend to anyone honestly, SUCH a good read! I love how Tilly reminds us of so many ways we’re subtly lured towards sin (and how we so often justify it to ourselves), but she also highlights the strong, glorious potential God put in us. You won’t get stuck feeling hopeless or irredeemable, as you’ll be reminded that God made us women with a wonderful purpose, and He’s there every step of the way, sanctifying us and using us for His great plan, despite the best efforts of the enemy!

Worth a serious read, Ladies

Tilly Dillehay has written a masterpiece every bit as worthwhile as Screwtape Letters. Focusing on the specific challenges facing women and how we are attacked differently, the book lays bare the excuses we make for the sins we commit.

Not Lewis, but darn near close

I absolutely love Lewis’ Screwtape letters, so it was a hard sell to believe someone could fill those shoes. Tilly absolutely lives up to the hype though and makes your squirm from the moment you open the book.
