 I'M VERY IMPRESSED April 30, 2007

I'm not easily impressed by advice books such as this, but Kathy Feston has written a concise, usable, understandable guide and I highly recommend it. In fact, I'm recommending it to at least two of my female clients who are in their 30's. Pamela D. Blair, Author The Next Fifty Years: A Guide for Women at Mid-Life And Beyond

This book is SO much deeper than I expected. I've spent a lot of time and energy trying to get the rleationship thing down, and this book really hit home for me.
It just rings true -- the relationship isn't going to go well if you're not well and at peace with yourself. Talks about how to relate in healthier, more loving ways. Some of it is common sense, but then it goes MUCH deeper than that. Great read. Very insightful. Best of all, hopeful!
 Wise Words for Singles! April 27, 2007

This book is right on the mark. I couldn't agree more about the importance of working on yourself in your quest for a soul mate. Until you know who you are, you will not attract the right kind of people. In my book, that is a mensch....someone decent, responsible, with a big heart. There is no challenge to get married. The key is to be married and happy. And, I'm all for empowering books like this that can help you get there!
LOVED IT April 23, 2006

I loved this book. Originally got it for relationship help. Found it to be truly helpful in that department.
What I didn't expect was that it delves into the mysteries of life at the same time. Deals with very deep issues, kind of parallels the mystery of being with your soul mate relationship. The two go hand in hand...
Forgive me if I'm not making sense. The author does make sense!
 Infuriatingly unbiblical. This is NOT a Christian book. June 26, 2007

I bought this book because I thought it would provide some biblical perspective on romantic relationships. I could not have been more wrong or more disappointed.
This book quotes random people rather than quoting Scripture. Worse, it makes unbiblical claims. For example, there is a pervasive idea that Spirit (that is, God) is not a person, but something that is in everything. Or the idea that every person you encounter is an angel. Or the idea that in God's eyes, every person is perfect. Even the example "prayer" in the text is just self-inspection with no regard for God... with an "amen" tacked on at the end.
The book has some sound advice, such as reflecting on one's own outlook... but it is buried by all the feel-good false teaching. I strongly recommend that you do not buy this book.
