This review is from: True Love: How to Make Your Relationship Sweeter, Deeper and More Passionate (Paperback)

I bought this book at the end of my last relationship (a little too late) and realised that barring any major problems in the relationship this little book actually emphasizes all the essential things that a person needs to look at concerning relationships. She writes in very small workable sections that get your mind going. For instance she might use two pages for an introduction then 2 for a forward then the four chapters are made up of 2-3 page topics. Every topic for instance one might be on "small ways to show appreciation" <for example but I don't have the book in front of me> These little topics contain in a very simple forward way how to get back the trust and love in a relationship or how to get the blood flowing in it. I suppose if you are already in a healthy relationship or think about being in a healthy relationship I would suggest the book just as much because it gives you the insight to recognise all the healthy ways to look at a relationship... This book isn't preachy or flat intellectualism, it is a good read. If you need help in a relationship this book makes the idea of bring back life in it very barable. Blessed Be
