Living Whole Without a Better Half

Rating:
Summary: Look elsewhere
Review: This book is a general discussion of life's hardships in a heavily scriptual context. It has very little to do with the problems encountered by singles in day to day life. The author apparently considers herself an expert on being single due to a recent break-up with a fiance in her mid twenties. Unfortunately, her experience is not particularly relevant to people who have been single for many years or are single in their 30's or 40's, which is significantly different from being a single 20-something.

Summary: You MUST pick up a copy of the book
Review: This is by far the best book I've ever read. I get so tired of hearing people say to me "God has someone special for you" or "What? You don't have a boyfriend? You're not married?!?" Why continue searching for your "better half" when you can live the life that God has for you. I can't tell you all of it. You have to purchase a copy for yourself.

Summary: A DEEPER ENCOURAGEMENT FOR SINGLES
Review: WOW! Wendy does a great job of honestly going deeper on a difficult subject. Although she doesn't trivialize the pain involved in living with unmet Godly desires, she does uncover the fact that these struggles aren't new to mankind. This is a deeper bite than Table For One, but just as good. Not for the faint of heart--be ready to wrestle with God. Huge encouragement for singles. Even though the author is apparently young and comes from an amazingly supportive family she is no stranger to lonliness. Excellant job helping us stay focused on God. Hard to be disgruntled with your life when you have an attitude of gratitude, even if this isn't the life we had hoped for.
