3.0 out of 5 stars Love it AND hate it...., July 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The 10 Second Kiss (Mass Market Paperback)

Ellen really has her crap together about her life and going through her personal trials like dealing with cancer....MORE THAN ONCE. And she has some good, practical and effective ideas about relationships that make you think "Hey! That's so stupidly simple! Why haven't I thought of that?". THAT'S why I love her book...Now, why do I hate the book? The majority of text in her book was nothing more than unbearably brazen upsells to order MORE of her "relationship aid" materials/programs or to attend her seminars...(for starters, there was an ORDER FORM in the back of the book). It almost made you feel as if you were'nt getting the COMPLETE experience unless you DID....The book in itself SHOULD be enough...With all her advertising material WITHIN her OWN material, it feels a billboard is put in front of my face, preventing me from continuing what I'm reading...reminds me when I surf the net and have to deal with pop-up ads and windows that prevent me from continuing on my way....She strokes herself more than the average hormonally-driven teenager. And that's why it's collecting dust on my bookshelf to this very day...on my shelf UNFINISHED I might add....

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it all., July 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The 10 Second Kiss (Mass Market Paperback)

This is a wonderful, touching and inspirational book that made me laugh and cry. She saves the best for last and her last chapter called "The 24 hour Day," has completely changed the way I live my life. If you want to be motivated to make changes in your life and relationship, read her last chapter and Conclusion first. She gives you a sense of power over your own life and the choices you make. It made me see the light and I will never forget her message. Whenever I am down, I reread that chapter and feel so lucky to be alive. Ms. Kreidman doesn't give you a lot of sychobabble like all the others I've read. She talks from the heart and not from the head. She makes having a great relationship so simple. For a few dollars her book did what thousands of dollars and years of therapy couldn't do. Our communication and sex life is better than ever. If every couple read this book, marriage counselors would be out of business.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can You Handle a Challenge to Kiss?, October 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The 10 Second Kiss (Mass Market Paperback)

At first I thought this book must be insane, challenging people to kiss for 10 seconds, but this book truly is hard hitting, head on, thought provoking reading. I have tried it in my own life and the results are exciting, to say the least! Tips on the 10 second kiss are not the only gems in it...This book is a "must read" for anyone looking to keep their relationship full of spark!
