4.0 out of 5 stars When You're Living in a Step Family, May 21, 2001

This review is from: When You're Living in a Stepfamily (Your Pocket Therapist) (Paperback)

I liked the book and found it very accurate, based on my own life, and easy to read. If you are looking for a very good story full of truths about step-families and how one such family worked through the bumps, this is for you. It, however is not a "how to" book so if you are looking for worksheets or questions and answers to guide your own dilemmas, this doesn't provide that.

This review is from: When You're Living in a Stepfamily (Your Pocket Therapist) (Paperback)

This little book, written by Dr. Hawkins, isn't like many of the books written by Ph. D's. That is all theory and very little use in the real time world.

Hawkins cuts through it all with a very simple story following a couple that go through some very real issues.

Clean cut and very easy used in the real time world. Small enough to finish in an evening or sitting in the bathroom throughout the week.

You'll like the less theory and more applications than some of the other stuff out there. This was a good read for me. I followed the story from beginning to end.

This review is from: When You're Living in a Stepfamily (Your Pocket Therapist) (Paperback)

This book is short and sweet and offers some great advice that you don't have to wade through chapters and chapters to find. I recommend this book for EVERYONE who is in a step-family situation.
