This book got recommended to me by the author popping up on my fyp (for you page) on the app TikTok. In the book, it feels like the writing has been 'dumbed-down' - as if she is writing to a bunch of Valley girl teenagers. There are a few grammatical mistakes and spelling mistakes in the book, that make you question the editing.
Some of the information in the book is good, but a lot of it is rambling about the same thing - whether to enforce a point or because it's simply poor writing, I do not know.

Reading a CBT book alongside this would do one well, as then it gives you proper actions to put into place. The book does have some relatable topics I found, but because of the nature of the writing, can lead you to feel very childlike.

I read this book after finding Chantal on tiktok and watching her lives. I really like her philosophy and the advice that she gives, but the style of writing makes it hard to read. I find that the examples about what men can do should you not be careful (sucking all the money out of you until you have to furlough your house) seem a little overexaggerated for the average person and the overall writing comes off as slightly infantilizing.
That being said I will probably be purchasing No More Assholes because the actual advice given in this book was all stuff I needed to hear. Remember ladies, men GIVE and boys TAKE.

This book is more about learning to love yourself before finding love rather than the horror stories of catfishing, which isn’t a bad thing. This is a free ebook on Chantal’s website, which I found through Tiktok. There’s some pretty good advice, but it’s fairly simple. Of her two books i’ve read, I’d recommend No More Assholes over this one.

Not to sound corny but this book is a life changer! Learning how to meditate and how it has calmed my anxiety, cleared my head, given me energy, allowed me to be comfortable with myself and improved my sleep was the first big “Wow” moment of SO many whole reading this book! I have had 22 years filled with more dysfunctional relationships and in those relationships was 2 failed marriages. I recognized a lot of the old me in many chapters and see the woman I am becoming because after my most recent divorce I saw the patterns that got me in that relationship and have been working on myself to never retrace those steps. After reading this book it has strengthened my foundation and I can’t wait to read the others. Thanks to this book I am finally in the most important relationship I have ever been in and that’s with myself! Read the book and you’ll find out why that is crucial. Even though this book is geared towards women it translates for men too. No matter you’re age or where you’re at in your relationship status, I highly recommend picking this up!

So far, I’m not impressed. While the author does give good advice, it reads a little like an article in cosmo magazine that takes real information and dumbs it down.. yet also making it less effective and harder to understand for readers who are looking for a deeper understanding or need that.
It’s easy to read but a bit of a quick-fix-vibe. The blueprints are there but I don’t know if it’s as helpful as it makes out to be for the average reader.
I bought this because of her TikTok where she I actually asked questions in the live chat and saw others ask similar, they weren’t addressed. I think her method has holes in it and she doesn’t seem to fully explain her reasoning.. I’ve yet to finish the book and if I get there I’ll update my review.
