Summary: A Dissenting Point of View
Review: I DID NOT ENJOY THIS BOOK! She writes in metaphor incessantly, the major one being "cleaning house" and offers very little by way of concrete advice. I'm still not sure what she is trying to say. "You are the love that you need" -- wthat does that mean? If this book helps others, that's great. But I didn't get it.

Summary: Truly eye-opening
Review: This book has made me open my eyes, my mind and my heart. Her words have touched my wounded heart and soul. I have only started the book and I have already started to change. I hate to admit that I didn't love myself. The healing has begun. Words cannot express my gratitude to Ms. Vanzant for such a wonderful book.

Summary: SPLENDID
Review: I have just started reading this book. I was amazed to see how insightful this book is. If you feel like you are lost, with regard to "what you want" and "what you need", I would recommend this book for you. This book is not only about how to be successful in relationships, but also about how to "live each moment in life and appreciate the beauty of life."

Summary: A powerful, insightful, inspiring book!
Review: Iyanla, you saved me from a place where I thought I was doing pretty well. I was not truly doing well in this area. I actually thought that a certain man "loved" me, even through all that I was going through with him. I also thought I truly loved myself. How could I, when I was working so hard to please him, and not to please me? Amazing when I think of it now. I have grown leaps and bounds due to this book and due to the sharing of your insights and knowledge. I was in the audience of Oprah when you were on recently, and you are amazingly powerful in person as well. Thanks to you, Angel Iyanla, for sharing your powerful God-given insights, which I'm sure will continue to help readers throughout the years.

Summary: someone has finally spoken the truth!!!
Review: Of the many self help books i've read, this is definitely one of the best. Iyanla Vanzant gives the truth regardless of how painful, depressing, or crushing it might be. She gives helpful advice on identifying what the meantime is, how to know when you're in the meantime, and how to make the most of the meantime while you're in it. This book is so enlightening, it's a must read.

Summary: THANK GOD FOR THE GIFT IYANLA HAS
Review: I AM JUST BEGINNING TO READ "IN THE MEANTIME". I AM IN A RELATIONSHIP NOW THAT'S A MEANTIME EXPERIENCE. IT IS SHOWING ME HOW TO GET OUT OF IT FROM A SPIRITUAL POINT AND TO LOVE MYSELF AND KNOW THAT I CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS. I THANK GOD FOR IYANLA AND HAVE READ ALL OF HER PREVIOUS BOOKS. I THINK SHE IS WONDERFUL AND GETS STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. THANK YOU IYANLA.

Summary: An upbeat, reality check told in matter-of-fact language.
Review: A book that is refreshing and enjoyable reminding us what life is about--love. It is the bottom line. Iyanla writes as fast as she talks and really gets to the heart of the subject. I was pleasantly surprised that it is not a mealy-mouth so-called 'how to' book.

Summary: Inspirational, great book to pass on !!!!!
Review: I have gone through three "meantime" relationships in the last two years and this book has been a God-Send!!! I cried through the first two chapters because my life reflected the "basement" type behavior explained in the book. This book is great for those women on a quest to find happiness within yourself. I highly recommend it and beg that you pass it on to other women that find themselves "making the same mistake again" in relationships.

Summary: Second, only to the Bible.
Review: In just the two days of reading this book my life was changed. Iyanla forces us to look at our lives from the opposite side of the coin, we all have a habit of putting the blame of our unhappiness on all those whom have wronged us, when in fact we are the only ones who is in control of our happiness. We can choose to stay in the "meantime" or take a whole new approach to life, starting with loving ourselves and believing that this is the most important thing. I am a new person because of this book and my outlook on life has been completely changed forever. I love me and I will be happy. If God loves me and wants total happiness for me, then who am I to choose different?
