Only relationship book you'll ever need
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
If you've had no luck on the dating scene then this book is for you. It's filled with tips on how to go about finding the right person and going to bars and online dating services are not going to help. Shapiro also focuses on why you need to see how content you are with your own life before you go looking for a relationship. She asks questions that might hit on what you've been trying to avoid-like if you're in debt, not ahppy where your career is going, or just not 100% happy with your circumstances right now. She says if you're in debt and in in a job crisis, why would somebody want to join you in your misery? She hits to the heart of why a lot of relationships fail. I liked her relationship examples too-I either saw myself or my friends in many of the scenerios. I'd definitely recommend this book for singles, but I think it could really benefit people in a relationship as well.
A Fresh Approach to an Eternal Question
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Shapiro gives away for free what so many "looking-for-loves" would pay millions for -- answers to how to settle into connubial bliss. If you are single and interested in being coupled, waste no time and try some of her suggestions pronto. What's great is that much of her advice -- connect with older marrieds whose relationships you admire, get some feedback from people you've dated -- is bound to improve your life even if you don't wind up settling down.
A Five-Star Fabulous Fix-Up!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This fantastic book is not only a how-to for finding that perfect someone, it's a step-by-step guide for living a rich life. The author coaches you to ask yourself what's most important to you, and gives you the confidence, courage and push to go out and get it. The book is filled with outrageously fabulous examples of how to navigate fixing yourself and adding spice to your life. Whether you're looking to meet your match or happily attached, this book is the perfect recipe for love, any way you slice it. The one thing to watch for, though, as you're reading, the author's rhythmic voice is so engaging that you may (like me) miss your subway stop or be late for a date!
Even if you have a match, this is a TERRIFIC read.

Shapiro's book goes way beyong the usual advice genre. This is an honest, heartfelt, page-turning offering. Get to the end and your reward is ten years worth of therapy in the guise of a fast-talking, straight-shooting brilliantly written book.I've passed it on to two of my single friends who have told me it already changed their lives (one started to date after a six year hiatus). As for me? Presently not single, I was entertained but more; I walked away with cogent advice for navigating life, even if I have the romantic thing down (for now, at least). What makes this book a break out is that her advice seems to work whether you want a lover, husband or attain a goal, whatever that might be.
