Summary: Not just a book for women with Alcoholic husbands!
Review: This book will also help anyone who has grown up in a hosehold where an addiction has been present, having a profound effect on your adult relationships. Being a guy in his 20's, I was embarassed to read a self help book with such a flakey(?) cover, but it has changed me immensly, and for the better. I understand a lot more about myself now, and I can work on myself and better myself--because if you don't work on you, who will! I wish I had read it years ago.

Summary: An Excellent book for all, alcohol problems or not!
Review: All I can say is that I wish that someone had suggested this book for me 10, 15, or more years ago. I have lost more than a nice woman in my life because I was a "rescuer", and a "codependent", and wanted to give, and give, and give, without receiving anything back, until it was all fore granted, and I got no more to give, then things would take a noise dive. She would be very unhappy, and unsatisfied with what she was getting; it became not enough! Read this book two, three, or more times, and let it sink in. I wish academic schools, colleges, and universities were teaching us this kind of material.Sam H in Michigan

Summary: An inspiring book
Review: This book was recommended to me and reading it was like discovering a hidden treasure chest on an island. The wealth of information and practical exercises offered were very effective in my life...they changed my life for the better. This is an inspiring book! Another excellent book that I highly recommend and goes hand in hand with this one, and is also very helpful is Dietmar Scherf's "I Love Me: Avoiding and Overcoming Depression."

Summary: This Book Started Life Change For Me
Review: This book was suggested to me during a session of my divorce recovery class. It truly has started my life in motion toward progress and healthy change. Just becoming aware of the topics in this book has made a phenominal difference in my life. In new relationships, I no longer follow my old habits. I'm far from figuring everything out, but awareness is wonderful. A huge weight has been lifted. My book is getting a work out being passed among friends who have these common traits.

Summary: AMAZING
Review: I first read this book after attending a "codependent" support group. It identified why I was so unhappy and "needing" and helped me cope/survive the damage I was doing to myself. Since then I have lent my book "Codependent No More" to several friends and family members. I have also bought it as a "Gift" for friends who I love and feel they will benefit from this book. Today I am buying another one for a dear friend of mind who is struggling over loosing her boyfriend who was very controlling. I would highly recommend this book to other.

Summary: A Guide To Help Identify and Change Unpleasant Emotions
Review: I finished reading this book and turned back to the front and started reading it again. How could anyone describe me so perfectly and give me the help and guidance I need when they don't even no who I am. The best self help book I have ever picked up especially after living with an alcoholic for 32 years. It will be a crutial part of making a new, healhty woman out of me. Thank you for this book!

Summary: Highly Recommended!
Review: An excellent guide to achieving peace of mind for codependents who want to begin to take care of themselves. I especially liked Melody's definition of codependency. If you are not sure whether you are a codependent, you need to read this book!

Summary: Finally I understand after 21 years of lies
Review: This book is very well written. I could hardly put it down. I've been in therapy for nearly a year, and inch by inch I have gotten to the point where I admit that my husband's problem is perpetuated by me. I don't know what will happen in the future, but at least I think I can reclaim my happiness. I am grateful for this book!

Summary: This book was the jump start to my journey in recovery.
Review: I finally found out that I had the right to be happy. I also learned that I was powerless over people, places, and things. I can't express what a differenc this book made in my life. Since reading it I have continued to read the other books Melody has written. "Language of Letting Go" is a must for anyone who has read "Codependent No More". I have given it away five times. I'm forever grateful to Melody for her honesty and the gift she continues to give away everyday.
