Summary: Skip It
Comment: Desperate for comfort when my marriage caved in, I picked up this book, despite my misgivings. Written by two freelance writers, (not professional therapists), it suffers from the clunky, impersonal, humorless style of a bloated magazine article, and is about as helpful. With advice like, "Some people find it useful to reconnect with their friends. Others like to spend time alone", and other simplistic and obvious platitudes, this book describes the hell that women go through afer a break-up, but offers no real help getting through it. There are no exercises, no resources (such as where to go to get counseling, or phone numbers for suicide hotlines), and no real focus. Most of the professional advice that is given from therapists and counselors is taken from other books. These women didn't even do their own research! A quick search through the Amazon Relationship book section will turn up half a dozen more promising books. Don't settle for this one, you'll be wasting your money.

Summary: My Woobie
Comment: I picked up this book and was immediately comforted. I searched through shelves and shelves of books before I found this perfect piece of work. I carry it with me where ever I go to shed light on each day. What's great, is reading this book really makes you feel like you are doing something to help you move forward after a painful break up. I found it especially interesting all the different types of people, ages, sexual orientation, etc. that went through the exact same thing. This book breaks barriers and had my smiling during a time I thought it might never be possible again. Thank you to the authors for giving me back hope.

Summary: A helpful find
Comment: This book soothed me during a bad time. It's so great to read about breakups from the point of view of people who've gone through them instead of just getting the opinions of experts (who sometimes don't seem to know very much). Reading this book was a lot like basking in the comfort of friends.
