How to Be Cherished: A Guide to Having the Love You Desire
Marilyn Graman, Maureen Walsh. Life Works Books, $22.95 (288pp) ISBN 978-0-9718548-6-4
In this guidebook written specifically for women, the directors of the relationship workshop company Life Works offer advice on reviving a stagnant relationship or simply adding another dimension to an already satisfactory partnership. Reminding women that they are powerful and have the savvy to redirect the course of their relationships, the authors urge introspection and understanding. A key recommendation is to keep a diary detailing your feelings and to remember that love is power. Although the advice is valuable and the authors' ego-boosting approach may appeal to some readers, the choppy and repetitive writing diminishes the book's readability and potency.
