I loved this book. It’s all about setting healthy boundaries with certain types of people in your life. If you can’t say no to people or have relationship problems, this is a great book. It is an easy read also. It may be helpful to nip problem areas in the bud with certain types of needy people before they start. It covers more than just relationships; it is useful in any area of your life where you need to set boundaries. For instance if you are always the one asked to worked overtime or always asked to watched someone else’s kids then learning to set boundaries is a great tool. You have to take care of yourself first and if you don’t know how to handle a situation except to take it, you end up without time for yourself. To me this book would be great with “The Gentle Art of Verbal Self Defense”. A lot of women tend to have this problem with boundaries.
