Summary: Extremely wonderful book!!!
Review: This is one of the greatest books when it comes to understanding others (and yourself!) and loving others well! Everyone should read this book so that they will be able to better recognize the way that their friends and loved ones receive love best! What speaks love to one person may not to another!---Or maybe just not as well!

Summary: This book changes lives! For you AND your loved ones!
Review: Did you ever know in your heart that someone loved you, but you just didn't "feel" loved? And then he/she would do or say something that just made you feel like a million dollars! This book has happened upon a secret of the ages. Each of us "feels" love in different ways. We intuitively "give" love after the same fashion we like to "receive" love. Once you know each other's preferred style, you will glue them to you forever! It's an absolute guarantee!

Summary: THE TRUTH ABOUT OURSELVES
Review: This book helped me discover many things about myself, especially my primary and secondary language of love. Moreover, I discovered my mother's languages and even though I am a choleric/sanguine type, and she is a sanguine/choleric, it turned out that both of our primary and secondary love languages are totally different. Wish I had known this before, because we would not have had so many missunderstandings. The knowledge gained with this book helps me look at people in a different way and approach them through the languages they understand. It helps at work, too. Try it, it's worth a shot!

Summary: The Best Book I Have Ever Read
Review: This is, without a doubt, the best book I have ever read. Dr. Chapman writes at the very end that he wishes he could give a copy of this book to every married couple. I have to agree with that statement wholeheartedly. The concepts as he presents them are so simple and basic yet incredibly profound. I cried as I was reading when Dr. Chapman described couples with problems that sounded almost exactly like my marriage. My husband is reading the book and we are once again beginning to communicate our love for each other. We still need counseling to work everything out, but Dr. Chapman's book may have almost single-handedly saved yet another marriage from the brink of divorce. I think everyone with a loved one (and I certainly hope everyone has SOME loved ones - children, parents) can benefit from the simple and understandable concepts in Dr. Chapman's books.

Summary: very thought provoking
Review: One of my close friends in college gave this to me as a Christmas gift. The simple language, the strong and moving words and teachings from the Bible have a profound effect on the reader. This book will definitely give answers to "Why pitfalls in relationships".Personally, it has helped me to see how people around (let alone significant others) have their own way of perceiving love and acts of love and performing them. Adjusting to other's way of love can help a lot in life...

Summary: How to Give Your Husband a Clue About You
Review: Probably the best thing that has come out of our reading and study of this book was that my husband learned ways to express his love to me that were important to me after years of being discouraged when I didn't appear to appreciate his ways of showing love. I hope that I, also, have learned better how to communicate love to my husband. Of course, we still have work to do on rekindling the relationship, and expect that to come in time. It is important for the reader to understand that just one reading or one study does not do magic, but a lifetime of commitment in the right direction does. This is perhaps the most important message of the book. The book is definitely worth reading. Most importantly, if you are considering divorce, you can't say you've tried everything until you've read this book and really tried this approach.

Summary: Answers Questions you didn't know you had.
Review: Everyday we are faced with Romance Questions. Why it works? Or doesn't? how can "I" make it work for me? What does he want? she want? What does it take to be loved? give love? Find love . . ? Gary Chapman's book does not have all the answers, but he certainly gives you a cheat sheet to look them up. Breaking down basic love needs into 5 "languages" Chapman takes the reader through a series of parables he experienced while counciling countless married couples. His humor and depth make for a fun easy read. Honestly, without this book, I would not be able to talk to someone, and figure out what it is he or she needs to feel appreciated, and more importantly, what we all want . . . loved.

Summary: Unbelievable simple yet so logical!
Review: Having trouble understanding your partner? Who doesn't? But Gary D. Chapman comes to the rescue and explains us how: The five love languages. It will help you understand why things are so cocked up at home. Simply because you don't do the things that the other partner want you to do. This book explains how you can identify what that mysterious thing is! And understand what it takes to please yourself as well. Finally I get proof for not being self-indulgant for always saying "I only do the dishes because I love you" (ok, that was before I bought a dishwasher, but anyway...) A much simpler theory and approach than the Mars and Venus books - a worthy complement. And easier to follow. It will not solve all your problems (like when we guys want to dig deep into our caves and run away for some time) but it is one hell of a good start!

Summary: Can you be that mate?
Review: I thought this book was very insightful. It made me realize that different people show "love" in different ways. Touch, words, acts of service, quality time, and gifts. I have not found my mate yet. But I realize that I love holding hands, and hugs . In order to have my love language met I think it would help to find someone else who has that same need. Then the love language will be easier to compliment.
