I was shocked when I saw how short the book was. There's a little over 60 pages of the actual book and it is in BIG print with a BIG space between each paragraph and BIG sidenotes. I literally read the whole thing in about 2 hours. The book is basically a teaser for her seminars, it gives you enough to want to know more but not enough to really make any huge changes. Unfortunately, the seminars are about five hundred dollars so out of reach finacially for a lot of people. If the author would put all the information from her seminars into a "real" book it could help a lot of people. Other self-help books are much less expensive and have much more content. I feel ripped off. Do not buy.

I was disappointed with this small book. I have listened to Allison's tapes and truly enjoyed and gotten alot out of them. This book seemed like it was written to get people to take her seminars. I was looking for much more depth and insight from this author...which I believe she has.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing Read, December 11, 2008

This review is from: Making Sense of Men: A Woman's Guide to a Lifetime of Love, Care and Attention from All Men (Paperback)

I love the In Sync With the Opposite Sex CD's. So, I had high hopes for this book. Unfortunately, it fell far short. The book is expensive for only being 70 pages long and in big, big print. There is just not much substance to the book. It's an ad for her seminars. She mentions wonderful things like - there are ways to motivate men to change without criticizing them and then leaves us hanging with no explanation of how to do that. She describes what attracts men, but gives no substantive explanations of how to attain that. Save your money.
