Summary: Absolutely Charming
Review: A friend gave me this book and to tell you the truth I didn't know what to expect. I knew about Ms. Hanover because of her public divorce to Mr. G., who for all his virtues was an unfaithful husband -- so I expected the book to be mean spirited and angry. But it's completely the opposite! It's warm, charming, witty and very well written. A delight from first page to last. I couldn't have been more surprised...or more pleased. I bought a copy for my sister (who likes uplifting, hopeful stories). I'm sure that she will love it, too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful Read!
Review: Donna Hanover beautifully conveyed to the reader how important love is in our lives. These delightful stories of reuniting with someone from the past serve as a beacon of hope for so many people who are alone. I particularly liked the format of the book and it put a big smile on my face. Donna's wit and charm are evident throughout the book. With so much negativity in our society today, it was a positive, hopeful read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Re-established Love
Review: Donna Hanover's, My Boyfriend's Back is a remarkable, touching tribute to renewed love. She shares her personal journey of reuniting with her high school sweetheart after decades apart, and includes other amazing stories from couples who have revived their relationships. I laughed out loud and couldn't put down the book until I'd read every last word.

If you think your romantic life is over, just read this book. It offers encouragement and a roadmap on how to find that long-ago special someone. My Boyfriend's Back shows the phenomenon that is now sweeping the country on how couples are reconnecting through the internet, at school reunions, or from just visiting with their neighbors back home. Ms. Hanover's book will encourage lovers of all ages to search for their former sweethearts. My Boyfriend's Back is a joy to read whether you're with someone or not. It touches the heart and renews the spirit.

Summary: Hopeless Romantic
Review: I just finished reading "My Boyfriend's Back" and a must admit, the hopeless romantic side of me was smiling ear to ear. Donna has captured the real essence of true love. At time when we are bombarded with negativity and hate, it's refreshing to read a tender love stories such as these. My class reunion is right around the corner and I can wait too see my high school sweetheart and who knows maybe I will be in the sequel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A refreshing mix of science and intimacy
Review: I loved this book! It seamlessly wove together scientific theories about how our predispositions in romantic relationships are formed at an early age, with people's personal accounts of finding love by looking back at their past. The psychology behind the book was extremely interesting, and the personal stories were inspiring. This book was a pleasure to read, and it left me thinking about my own romantic history, and how it might affect my future.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is a must have and it warms your heart!!
Review: I really enjoyed reading every page of this well written book. Donna has really managed to tell great stories and you really do learn something from everybody's experiences. It's a book that you never want to put down, it just keeps getting better and better. And the thing that really makes this book a "Home-Run" is that Donna opens up her heart and tells us her personal story of rediscovered love with her highschool boyfriend. Donna really has a gift for storytelling!! I am telling all my single girlfriends to read this book and then look up a boyfriend or two from the past. I am keeping my fingers crossed that they all will call back and say "My Boyfriends Back".

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: When Harry Met Sally Part 2 Etc.
Review: I was initially attracted to this book because I'm a hopeless romantic. I've always considered Donna Hanover a very intelligent and charismatic personality and found the whole idea of her reconnecting with her first love life affirming. I wanted to know more.
While this book does address her rekindled romance and subsequent marriage, her purpose in writing this book appears to be a primer for those people who have considered reconnecting and a great read for all of the hopeless romantics out there. While the case studies she presents chronicle the positives and negatives of first love renewed and places them in a sociological framework, the real hook here are the stories
themselves.
For the most part this is a feel good book. It is hopeful and positive and it is a great contrast to the cynacism
and negativity is a part of modern life.
If you loved When Harry Met Sally, you'll love this book. It abounds with happy (or at least hopeful) endings, and absolutely does not rehash the Rudy Giuliani thing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book!
Review: My Boyfriend's Back is a charming and uplifting book about happy endings. Donna Hanover has done an outstanding job sharing inspiring true stories that bring hope and encouragement to others. I enjoyed the book tremendously!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It Was All Just Yesterday
Review: My wife and I are in Chapter 8 of the book. We have also personally met two other couples in the book. Having interviewed with the author, we can definitely vouch for the accuracy, as well as her well thought out and careful presentation of each and every couple and the categories the author placed them in. She easily captures the thoughts and words of the couples within. Her book was a real pleasure to read, and definitely gives hope to those who would love to be given a second chance and meet up with a long, lost love.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My Boyfriend's Back
Review: What a wonderful look into rekindled romances. Donna Hanover has done a masterful job of weaving her personal story of found love with touching stories of many others - each one more endearing than the last. Stories that can only touch the heartstrings of every reader. Donna has managed to combine those romantic insights with the expertise of many knowledgeable professionals, but never being "preachy."
It was a "fun read" that left me smiling.
