I liked this book, but I didn't feel it was as unique as it claimed to be. I enjoyed the focus on letting yourself love, and be vulnerable, and all that, but felt there was too much emphasis on wounds inflicted as a child by imperfect parents, and not enough on wounds resulting from previous relationships. My parents weren't perfect, but I've already come to terms with that. I was looking for something a little more.
Despite my reservations, I am giving it four stars, since there were some useful activities, and it's one of those books where the act of reading it is itself enjoyable and useful. I think I'm going to go back and re-read Thich Nhat Hanh's book on Love, though, which I think I remember being a little better. I guess I'll let you know. ...less
