I CRIED AND CRIED AS I REALIZED WHY I GET IT SO WRONG AND WHY I SABOTAGE MYSELF SO MUCH

I’m a 59 year old man. I listened to this fantastic book and I was shedding tears non stop as I started to understand where I had made mistakes and why they kept being repeated… why I ended up being a partners rebound relationship and why it had no chance of success and why I hadn’t done the work to understand my attachment style and learn to become more secure. Why I didn’t spend the time figuring out what was important to me and how that could result in a successful long term relationship… thanks Mathew for opening my eyes…

I have hundreds of books on self development.. I have probably only given 2 reviews..
I usually suffer from obsessive behavior when entering new relationships which usually ends up in self destructive behavior on my part.
Having read this book and by applying this very simple process I have been able to retrieve a situation that was going very fast downhill and been able to bring my obsessions under total control.. wow every time the thoughts appear in my mind.. 5,4,3,2,1 and I cannot believe the shift in focus and emotion I'm feeling - a phenomenal book

"Forty-four percent of the American population is convinced that Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead sometime in the next 50 years," writes Sam Harris. "Imagine the consequences if any significant component of the U.S. government actually believed that the world was about to end and that its ending would be glorious. The fact that nearly half of the American population apparently believes this...should be considered a moral and intellectual emergency."

What the world needs to hear. I rank this alongside Professor Bart Erhmann's work on The Great Courses. Very revealing.

The thought-provoking new novel from the international best-selling author whose words change lives. Linda knows she's lucky. Yet every morning when she opens her eyes to a so-called new day, she feels like closing them again. Her friends recommend medication. But Linda wants to feel more, not less. And so she embarks on an adventure as unexpected as it is daring, and which reawakens a side of her that she - respectable wife, loving mother, ambitious journalist - thought had disappeared.

Worst book from Paulo Coehlo

Worst book from Paulo Coehlo
Reviewed: 09-28-14
What disappointed you about Adultery?
There is simply no value in this book. Some attempt at a 50 Shades of Grey. Disappointed with Paulo Coehlo as he has put out fantastic work in the past such as the Alchemist.
What could Paulo Coehlo have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Nothing really
What didn’t you like about Susan Denaker’s performance?
Far too slow

The New York Times best-selling novel from Garth Stein - a heart-wrenching but deeply funny and ultimately uplifting story of family, love, loyalty, and hope - a captivating look at the wonders and absurdities of human life...as only a dog could tell it.

The Real Purpose of Parenting is a series of stories and life lessons from the world of a therapist, known as The Parent Coach. Very well-intentioned, well meaning parents are at the point of crisis with their kids because their own best parenting efforts are NOT producing the children they want them to be. And there, according to Dr. Phil Dembo, lies the problem. Dr. Dembo shows simple family “turn around” strategies that reframe the real purpose of parenting and gives each family, and child, their own salvation.
