Summary: Not worth it
Review: I was pleased with the book -- it's well-organized and upbeat and the lists of questions Rosenberg asks are helpful. I do think she is overly rigid on her views about what she considers unhealthy "addictions" but her point is well made that those of us who want to get married ought to examine compartmentalizing our work lives better. She also seems to have a very limited view of peoples' relationships with their pets -- in my opinion the guy with the dog "Elvira" was fortunate that his relationship with the author didn't progress. I got the sense that she views relationships with animals as very "second-class" and I certainly don't agree with that. Overall, though, I am glad I ordered the book and expect to loan it to friends.

Summary: Read THIS book!
Review: I'll admit I didn't expect too much when I purchased this book. I thought it might end up to be very superfical and blame me for not being married at my current age. How surprise I was to find out that was not the case at all! This book puts getting married in to proper perspective. Without blaming anyone or giving quick fix advice on how to "find that special one" it breaks down the ultimate objective step-by-step. The books asks you some hard questions - "Do you want to get married or does someone else want you to get married?" It makes you examine yourself truthfully and gives control where it belongs - in your own hands. I am very eager to try out what I've learned. Read this book - it'll change you like it changed me!

Summary: Read the Book - Met the Guy
Review: This book changed my life. It helped me to identify the things in me that were blocking me from getting married. It helped me to clarify what were important qualities to hold on to and what were superficial qualities to let go of when looking for a mate. It helped me to define for myself what I really wanted in a guy and to recognize when I was getting it and when I was not.
It completely revolutionized my thinking and years later when I met someone who possesses the qualities I held as important, I did not let the fact that he did not have the superficial qualities, I once thought important, get in my way. We have been together for almost 5 years now and I recommend this book to anyone over or under 35 who complains that they can't find a nice guy.

Summary: Not worth it
Review: This book is a lot about the psychological issues for unmarried women. It's very long-winded. I was hoping to learn some specific tips on how to find the right man-- hoping for some new advice. I didn't get that here.
