1.0 out of 5 stars It's freely available in Big Sur, January 9, 2008
This review is from: How to Survive and Thrive in an Empty Nest: Reclaiming Your Life When Your Children Have Grown (Paperback)
I'm a single dad, my youngest has just 'left', and I was in a great funk and did the usual search through Amazon. I don't know why I landed on this book, but bought it. Read/skimmed it in 1 day and, unfortunately found it completely unhelpful. Advice like, "Think good thoughts", "Don't get depressed" etc. did not really get to the core of my feeling bad--I felt like the authors were quite pushy in their advice. The good part of the book was the reassurance that I wasn't alone, but their advice for feeling better was simplistic at best. Anyway, there's a free library at Deetjen's Big Sur Inn, where I 'donated' it. So if you're on HWY 1, about 50 miles south of Monterey, stop in and look at it, and I think you'll agree with my assessement.
