"An excellent breakup book that assists not only in dealing with the shock of a relationship ending, but also how to move past the breakup to become a stronger, better person in spite/because of it. Topics such as dealing with breakup myths ('I need closure!') and boundaries (how do I not get into this situation ever again) are refreshing and well-suited to the tone and style. Highly recommended."
