There might be very valuable insights in the book, but I have trouble sifting through all the anecdotes. Almost everything is explained in example dialogue of random Dianes, Alexes, Charlies, Carries, Sals and Teds. Even in helpful lists, like the list of daily rituals, there are examples to "illustrate" the point; I don't care about the way "Pete and Mara" ask each other to share their feelings. The book can probably be condensed to 10 pages, if the author would not hide their main points in paragraphs of counseling session screenplay.
