Loved this book

I love this book so much that I loaned my copy to my niece. Every woman can benefit from the words of wisdom.

An excellent book on relationships

So often we are looking for a book that will aide us in finding the right person. Often this challenge is more of learning about ourself and then deciding what is best for us as an individual. This book is wonderful for that. Nailah Shami writes with such passion and such common sense, you will walk away knowing more about yourself, and being able to avoid persons that aren't right for you. She is clear and concise about you taking care of yourself, knowing yourself, and then and only then are you going to be able to find the right person. As you will gain the insight and power to decide who is a frog, and who is the keeper. She writes with much passion, and she gives you exercises to go through to help you find the right person. This is a must read!

A Must Read

This is the smartest bad relationship recovery book I've ever read. The author has a great sense of humor and terrific values/common sense. Its not just another quick and easy self help book that doesn't work: The author recognizes that real change takes time, and tells you to take your time with the book and the exercises. I've read the first 50 pages three times, and keep finding something new.

Wit, whimsy and lots of wisdom

This was one of the best books for finding the "prince" of every woman's dream with practical, funny and spiritual advice. Ms. Shami talks to the reader like one of your best-girlfriend's who's not preaching, but, tells you how to avoid the "7 type's of frogs" whom you know she or her friend's have had both temporary fun and misery with, without male-bashing, while promising, that you too, can be on the road to recovery with journaling exercizes, affirmations, stories about friends who have found true "princes", and ways to pamper the queens and princess' that we are without shame or self-pity. No more worts for me as I'm not into toads, because I've found my fairy god-mother in Ms. Shami!
