No soy de leer este tipo de libros, solo porque estaba época en la que estaba deprimida por un ex-novio que me había dejado jajaja ahora es gracioso recordarlo. Es un buen libro, no me enganché como pensé pero, da muchos puntos de vista con los que estoy de acuerdo y creo que, muchas mujeres han o pasarán por este tipo de situaciones en algún punto de sus vidas.

This was the second book I had read by Chris Prentiss. Zen and the Art of Happiness was written very simply but touched on the right points for finding zen in everyday life. The Laws of Love is also written very simply. I was able to get through it in a couple of hours and to find the areas that I need to work on in order to be successful at attracting a relationship into my life and to be able to follow the Universal laws of love in that relationship. I also learned about the root of addictions and how they can impact others. I learned a little about saving space and why it is important as a partner to do so. Finally, there are those certain ways of coping with life's lessons and deal-breakers. Prentiss offers very simple solutions that I think as humans we tend to forget in the hustle and bustle of daily living. I will come back to this book when I need a refresher or guidance. All in all, it was a very good read that I think I would even like my own intended partner to one day read.

A HORRIBLE BOOK! It basically says that if your partner disapproves of your best friend or any family member (even if out of his/her own insecurities with no valid reason) you should cut ties with them immediately to prove that the relationship is your priority! Same applies for work opportunities/hobbies..TRASH TRASH TRASH! It was given to me by a friend otherwise I would have never went through with it.

This book is an easy read & easy to comprehend. A pre-courser to A Course In Miracles. Mind-opening.

Another Great Book from Chriss

This was a wonderful book that will help your relationship grow, but will also give you clear guidance on when to leave. It will become immediately apparent why previous relationships did not work out, and will give you tools & tips to improve your current relationship. You'll be moved by the letter that he wrote to his future wife, before she was known to him.

[Diamond · Rating 5 out of 5]

I find this book empowering with the theme being: you are in control, you are responsible, you are the author. It also brings accountability to yourself in what relationship is real to you, and what you should tolerate or see as a healthy relationship, as well as, bringing accountability to your partner to do the same. Cause & effect, trust, putting your relationship first, understanding deal breakers, knowing that your life is full of purpose and nothing is coincidental.. Definitely jam packed with goodies, gems, and refreshers. Applicable to all relationships, not just romantic.
