Getting over John Doe: A Story of Love, Heartache, and Surviving With Style

Rating:
Summary: A must-read for both genders!!
Review: Even men will enjoy Suzanne Yalof's book. Ms. Yalof puts a funny spin on falling for the wrong person. O.K. so maybe men don't go shopping or call their mother when the going gets rough, but there are parts of John Doe that every person can identify with!! I laughed out loud.

Review: i picked this book up for friend who was just given the heave-ho...but ended up having to buy her another copy because i wanted to keep this great read for myself. not just funny and witty--love the bracelet anecdote and mom's golf analogy--but also surprisingly moving and powerful.

Review: LIGHTHEARTED - DON'T THINK IT'LL CURE YOUR HEARTBREAK. Cute book, but not one that will heal a heartache. Easy read, can be read in one sitting. Upbeat and cheery - can relate to some of the accounts mentioned. But if you are looking for a book that will truly heal a heartache, this is not your book. I ordered this book hoping for advice and testimonials that would help me get over him - this book does not deliver that. A fun read most women will enjoy.

Review: My ex-american boyfriend? Definetly a "Connecticut" in bed. Susan gives us a break, by showing single girls in the dating jungle that the problem is NOT with us. There are LOTS of frogs out there. I had my "longest flight back to Brazil" to find this hilarious book waiting for me at home. It was the first time I smiled after my trip. Thanks Suzan!!!

Summary: I'm out of my funk and back into life!
Review: Thanks, thanks, and thanks again to Suzanne Yalof for this hysterically funny, and surprisingly helpful book. It is, in so many ways, the story of MY life. For weeks my friends have been telling me to "just get over him" but not until I read John Doe did I understand what I had to do. Spurred on by Yalof's advice, I realized it wasn't my fault (as she says, there are just a lot of frogs out there) and so I tore up his photos, triple pierced my ears (he had forbidden me to do it) and set out to rent a movie and have one last good cry. And guess who I met at the video store? Prince Charming! No kidding! A message to my fellow "dumpees": Read this very funny book. It will change your life!

Summary: I Love This Book!
Review: This book has helped me much more than any one ever has. If you have ever been dumped by someone that you thought was the "one," this book is definatley for you to read. Two years ago, I broke up with a person that meant more to me than any one ever has and it was the hardest thing that i ever had to do. But when i picked up this book one day at a local bookestore, it impacted my life in the most positive way. I learned that i had to grow from this experience instead of wallowing in my own self pity. Thank you Suzanne for writing such a fabulous book!

Summary: Not What I Expected--Shallow
Review: This book was so great-finally a book to talk about getting over someone that is so realistic and hilarious at the same time. My friends and I rolled over laughing -we've all been through it and it's great to laugh about it. Getting over someone can take a long time-this is a good read in the meantime.

Summary: Not What I Expected--Shallow
Review: This book will be of no use when dealing with the break-up of a serious relationship. One of the suggestions is to go shopping. Great, not only will I still have a broken heart, but I'll be up to my eyeballs in credit card debt too. This book is only good for a few laughs when dealing with the break-up of a short and superficial romance.

Summary: Quick entertaining read - NOT for those seeking a how to
Review: This is a "feel better because someone else has been there" kind of story - I read it in a couple hours after long-ago getting over my own John Doe,. It is amusing and maybe a little inspiring to know that almost anything can get published should I decide to write a get-over-it book...

Review: You will read this book in 1/8 the time it takes to get shipped to you-- and that's with express delivery! This book speaks your language if you've ever experienced post-bliss in a relationship or just plain been dumped. The great illustrations are a bonus. Get it, read it and then give it to your best friend.
