This review is from: Coupleship: How to Build a Relationship (Paperback)

My therapist turned me onto this book many years ago. It was so wonderfully written and helpful that I found myself turning to it again and again. This book gives you hope that your relationship is so valuable, even when you feel like running away. It is very easy to read and understand. She gets right to the point and really helps you to see what areas in your relationship need to change in order to form positive and happy relationships. After all, who's relationship is not a challenge? If you want to save your relationship, GET THIS BOOK and read it with your partner!

This review is from: Coupleship: How to Build a Relationship (Paperback)

I found this book while going through a box of old books to throw away, re-read it, and decided to keep it. I first read it years ago when grappling with the decision of whether to end my marriage, but unfortunately therapy had failed and I already had one foot out of the door, so its practical, wise advice on revitalizing a marriage fell on deaf ears. I am keeping it because of its clear, simple, no-nonsense advice, its great fun little drawings, and its descriptions not only of what should be avoided in a marriage but of what should be cultivated. Just in case I get another chance! Here's to second chances!

This is a wonderfully comprehensive look at the self and how we uniquely engage in relationships. It provides a path of understanding and follows up with guidelines for how to be successful in relationships. A must-read for personal growth junkies.
