About the author

Melody Beattie

81 books999 followers
Melody Beattie was an American self-help author best known for her groundbreaking work on codependency. Born in 1948 in Minnesota, she endured a traumatic childhood marked by abuse and early substance addiction. After achieving sobriety, she became a licensed addiction counselor and began writing to help others navigate emotional recovery. Her 1986 book Codependent No More became a bestseller, selling eight million copies and helping to bring the concept of codependency into mainstream awareness. Over her career, she authored 18 books, including Beyond Codependency, The Language of Letting Go, and Make Miracles in Forty Days. Though her work is often associated with Co-Dependents Anonymous, her books were independent of the program.
Beattie’s personal life reflected many of the struggles she addressed in her work, including four marriages and the loss of a son. Her writing often drew from her own experiences with grief, addiction, and healing. In early 2025, she was forced to evacuate her Malibu home due to wildfires and died shortly after at her daughter’s home in Los Angeles from heart failure.

My feelings about this book are very mixed. It was not at all what I was expecting and I’ve come away feeling I didn’t really learn anything I didn’t already know about codependency. Some of the material seemed outdated and IMO this book focused too much on religious aspects and seemed written from an extremely Christian point of view. Did a lot of skimming due to that aspect. I do however think this book could be extremely helpful to those who are deeply religious.

I love this book. I read it over and over and over again over the many years since the 1990s. it helped me stay grounded and on the right course. I highly recommend it for people that grew up in a very dysfunctional household, and have struggled with self identity.
