Review: I only gave this book 4 stars because of how late I found this book in relation to my divorce and some of the chapters were not useful to me...but the chapters I did read....I took notes, journaled about what I read and I am much more joyful and peaceful about my divorce and life because of the insight gained from this book. GIVE IT AS GIFTS TO ANYONE YOU KNOW GOING THROUGH DIVORCE OR FRIENDS/RELATIVES OF SOMEONE GOING THROUGH A DIVORCE!!

Summary: The best book for young divorcees!!
Review: I read this book twice and am now on my third read - it helped me immensely. There were a lot of terrible feelings I had that I thought only pertained to my situation, my divorce - it was extremely helpful to read all these other women's stories and to know that I was not the only one out there going through it all. It helps with the legal questions but also on dealing with the social implications of being divorced. It's an entertaining read too!

Summary: Such a GREAT read!
Review: Not even 30 and struggling with ending my marriage only 3 months old has left me with a myriad of feelings. Coming from a family of divorce I obviously did NOT want to go down the same path. Not Your Mother's Divorce has shown me that I'm not alone in what I am about to go through and in "real world" terms. I found that other books tend to focus on bitter custody battles and how to cope as a single mom- neither of which applies to me or anyone else going through a "starter marriage". Moffett & Touborg give a perspective that I could completely relate to - reading this book is like having my best girlfriend sitting next to me encouraging me that what I'm about to go through will only make me stronger and that I WILL in fact survive and be better off for it and a MUCH happier person! I can hardly wait! I can only say that I am grateful to have read this book at this point in my life. I've learned a lot about myself, what went wrong in my marriage (before we got married!) and this book will with out a doubt help me face the world as a delightful divorcee!

Summary: This book helped me through the rough spots
Review: This book was so helpful when I was going through my divorce. I encouraged my family & close friends to read it so they could get a better understanding of some of the challenges I faced. The book is well thought-out, compassionate, hip and humorous. Chapter ten will lift your spirits. Cheers!!!
