For married women needing to rekindle romance

What did you like best about 30 Days to Love? What did you like least?

I liked the points it brought up on gauging peoples reactions. How to use compliments to survey attention and activity while following up with the proper reinforcement.

Which scene was your favorite?

Lesson given early on, the rest centered on romantic advice for prudish couples.

Did 30 Days to Love inspire you to do anything?

It changed the way I respond to peoples reactions.

Nothing new here

Nothing new here. Actually this seemed a little outdated. Unless you've been living under a rock and are clueless, this might be helpful to you. The main point is to just do it.

The author kept throwing out 'BF' and 'GF'. would sound more natural if the reader / author just said it.

Painfully horrible performance by the reader

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

There were some good points in the book, but also some very out of touch weird choice of words. For example, obsessive use of the word "yummy" when referring to sex. I don't know who she targets the book to, but nobody I know would relate to that syntax, or take any advice that followed seriously

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator was snarky and read the book more like a story than a self-help/advice type of book. Her constant change in vocal inflection, inappropriate use of "up speak", and emphasis on all the wrong words was distracting. I can't imagine why the author would have approved this recording, or for that matter - since the author also does public speaking - why she wouldn't have simply recorded this with her own voice.

Was 30 Days to Love worth the listening time?

All in all, no. Closing on the use of gemstones stripped her of any credibility she might have built in the earlier chapters.

Any additional comments?

If this is the work a PhD publishes, I'm glad I didn't spend any more time in school.

Terrible

I couldn't even finish it. The author spends more time praising herself than offering anything remotely substantive.

Great Advice

This book actually works to bring you and your partner closer together. It reaffirms the positive in your relationship, and I enjoyed listening to that simple advice. But, the author is correct-all steps must be taken for this to truly work in a fragile relationship, as many can be.

Advice that really works

Would you listen to 30 Days to Love again? Why?

Its an excellent guide to relationships that can be listened to again and again.
I have bookmarked the most essential points and i listen to them frequently.
My relationship has improved from the first day i listen to this book.

Not bad until the "higher power" (HP)

What would have made 30 Days to Love better?

Any author claiming scientific evidence for the supernatural ought to lose 100% credibility immediately. It's a litmus test for me. I was revolted. This is 2014. There is no evidence in the supernatural. If I wanted a faith-based book, I would have been shopping in the religious section.

Has 30 Days to Love turned you off from other books in this genre?

Somewhat.

Which scene was your favorite?

Subjects 1 - 3 were decent. Subject 4 was horrendous.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from 30 Days to Love?

Subject 4 was sloppy and deceitful. When the author suggests "mediation" works because it likely connects to the "higher power"... or that prayer has been scientifically shown to help those prayed for even when they are unaware... I had enough. Science knows much about how mediation works, and there is no evidence for the spurious claims of the author. And science has studied prayer, and there is no evidence of benefit to the prayee (although there can be for the prayer). Listening to this chapter made me feel like I was gullible and poorly educated.

Any additional comments?

This book is likely an insult to the faithful and the unbelievers. The tired mechanism used in AA (alcoholics anonymous) of the "higher power" that can range from "nature" to the Christian "god" is used significantly. This book ought to have 2 chapter options - one for the faithful and one for the rest. But I do not believe the author could assemble the latter. I might recommend Waking Up by Sam Harris as a primer.
