Picked this up on a whim, and found it to be quite honest in it's assessments of the relationship problems women get to hurdle today. Cove travels through some of these very sticky subjects with a sense of humor and deep understanding, which i appreciated. Her bottom line is 'seriously it's okay whatever you decide, just make for damn sure you know what it is you really want and don't let anyone tell you otherwise', and i totally second her opinion.

I loved this book. It spoke to me on a totally personal level. There is a chapter in here for every non-married woman. I will continue to refer to it in the future when i need a reminder, that I am the one to make myself happy.

A fairly positive book, as self-help books go. A quick read.
