Oh wow. I'm kind of embarrassed to have this on my book list, but at the time I read it, I found it therapeutic. Messy breakups can make you not yourself.
Pretty good book. Describes all the different way women fit love into their lives and as with her other book talks about how LOVE is too important to be "half-assed".
