That\u2019s about all we know so far, but I have a couple of guesses about what to expect.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It will be an advice\/self-help book. Jill has mentioned that her favorite book is <em>Waiting for Prince Charming: A Guide to Radiant Purity<\/em> by Sarah Mally. The book is about the way that some fundamentalist Christians approach courtship and marriage. I\u2019d bet on this book having similar advice for women, although none of the Duggar girls are married or betrothed yet.<\/li>\n<li>It will be published by Howard Books. That imprint put out of both of Jim Bob and Michelle\u2019s books, so it\u2019s likely that the family has an existing relationship with the publisher.<\/li>\n<li>It might be a while before we actually see the book. Jill said that the project was being completed on \u201cDuggar time,\u201d which is the show\u2019s euphemism for \u201cwhenever we feel like.\u201d In other words, the girls have a lot of cooking and cleaning to do before they can get started on writing.<\/li>\n<li>Cousin <strong>Amy Duggar<\/strong> was apparently not invited to the book party.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Does this mean the girls will get to do a book tour on their own without dragging their entire family along? Something tells me that\u2019s a no. If one of them wants to hijack the project and write a juicy tell-all, though, I will be first in line to buy it.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar already have two books under their belts \u2013 20 and Counting!
