Summary: Truly spoken!
Review: How often do women hear from their mothers and other females when they are going to get married or why don't you have a boyfriend? And what are the reasons for getting a man? In my past and present experience, I have listened to relatives and friends tell me I need a man when I am trying to build a life for myself. A man is no guarantee that your life will be complete. I am in my twenties and living with my family. I don't have a boyfriend and am not in the position of looking for one. It seems to me that the only way to get a life is to get a man instead of being on your own. As women, we need to build our own lives before even allowing a man to enter ours. I am glad that Ms. Bawden has written a book for the single female who is looking for love without having to lose herself.

Summary: I think it is great book but also want to ask your ideas too
Review: I have read "The Rules" and "The Real Rules", and when I bought this book, I bought "The Real Rules" as well. Actually, I really liked both of them, as they were totally different from "The Rules", and I really like "Be honest", I think it is very important for all to be honest with esp people you love and care. But somewhat, The Real Rules or this book, written in USA or Canada, but I am originally from Asian country, but currently living in Scotland for my study.. Of course, we all are the same human being, we are the same inside, but of course, there is somehow cultual influence... Well, the country I am from, if you are woman and not married after 35 years old, people definitely think " she hasn't married.. maybe there is something wrong with her.. etc" I know it is important to have my own life but very very important for me to get married, not because of society though.
But I'd like to know what and how men think of this book and also people from other countries not only USA, or Canada or UK ..
But for me, I think this is great book, I like this idea.. couple's relationship should have emotionally and physically intimate and needed to be balanced. It was said in the Real Rules as well. I totally agree this idea..

Summary: Thoughtful, insightful, accurate
Review: I must admit, I approached this book with some cynicism - after all, so many of the so-called self-help books on this subject are little more than the lame bleatings of middle-aged soccer moms who've suddenly discovered Prozac.
This tract is different. Laced with sublety of thought and incisive wit, Jennifer Bawden cuts to the heart of what it means to be a modern women with her own hopes, dreams and above all, ambitions. It is a practical and straightforward manifesto on how to not only define what you want, but also on how to get it.
Clearly articulated and incisive, this book is catalyst for any woman to develop courage and desire to truly change her life and I have no hesitation in giving it my unqualified recommendation.

Summary: New Millenium Woman
Review: Jennifer Bawden's book is extremely helpful in motivating women to listen to themsleves instead of to cultural programming. It is the foundation I wish I had had earlier in my life to tell me I could really be all I wanted to be and that relationships should be something we co-create...something that is just one component of a fulfilling life. The author's perspective is very healthy and women of all ages should listen up!

Summary: Jennifer tells it like it is.....
Review: This book is not just about "getting a man". In fact, that is one tiny commodity you can acquire from taking in the information Ms. Bawden speaks of. I don't mean merely reading the book and thinking about the suggestions offered. I'm refering to a project of allowing the words to become saturated in the brain, to become soaked-up like a sponge, and to be utilized in life. This is no "Rules" dating book. This book has integrity and a passion for life. It is truly about changing the way you look at yourself, gaining confidence, and not settling for anything less than what you deserve.Ms. Bawden is eloquent in her quest to inform us all on life and men. You can't get a man without getting a life first! Quality is key! Who doesn't want to live a life of quality?
