Breaking Up: From Heartache to Happiness in 48 Pages

I purchased this book for myself YEARS ago during a break-up and it was cute enough to keep on the shelf. I've since made it a point to send this book to girlfriends who have had break-ups. It's a fun read during a sad time.

I bought a copy of this little book over 15 years ago in a small Hallmark store, and re-read whenever I feel down! Even though it has a playful tone, the overall message is clear: whats-his-name isn't good enough for you, so take some time, cry over the loss of love and companionship, but snap yourself back to reality after awhile so that you can find the terrific partner that you really deserve (or the great life that you can have on your own). A wonderful book for smart women. I'm buying a few more copies to pass along to my friends!

I was really surprised to see negative reviews of this dear little book. Its not meant to be a 300-page psychologically-charged guide on getting over someone. Aren't there enough of those out there? This book just says it all, simply. I think it perfectly and adorably states and illustrates the stages you go through when you are dumped...and most importantly, that you will be OK and are strong enough to make it through. I just went through a break-up myself, and I look at it daily, just for that little pick me up and a smile.

Awesome book for a smile when you dont have one..great to give to friends who need a lift...

Cute little book that tells you to get over it and that it's OK to be alone sometimes. I like to keep 2 or 3 copies around to give out in desperate times - everyone seems to break up sometime...
