Not Your Mother's Divorce, aka NYMD, was a very helpful and empowering book for me.
It dispelled the following myths:

Useful things I learned:

A lot of the divorce books I browsed through had topics on things that don't really pertain to me and my situation. This one really did touch on most things I am feeling and going through - kind of how a girlfriend in a book would talk about. Good for those going through a divorce.
