Reviews

[Kim M · Rating 4 out of 5]

I enjoyed this book as an expansion to the five love languages. Some of it was a bit repetitive, and some of the dialects seemed more similar than distinct, which is why 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, however, this book provides many helpful tips about relating to loved ones in a way that meets their needs and deepens relationships.
