Having heard Barbara talk on relationships I found her vibrant, insightful and thoughtful comments engaging and interesting and so decided to buy her book. It was easy to see why she was so popular hearing her voice and the energy and enthusiasm she projects. Unfortunately after reading this book cover to cover I found it lacking in substance and too similar in writing structure to the John Grey books and lacking in enough original thought. The book was easy to read but overused quotes, metaphors and stories grabbed from mainly Eastern philosophy which were more like padding. The discussions and comments about "grief" was interesting but 200 pages into the book. As someone going through a life transition I found the book light on real original thinking and I could use a couple a throw away lines like "It's always darkest before the dawn" or "Follow your heart" which would sum up most of the book. I am also tired of other authors of a similar genre who provide jacket promotion quotes. I wonder if they really read the book.

But didn't make any kind of profound effect on me. Just ok, the usual motivational stuff - just from a different person.
