Review:
So I was recommended to read this book by a work friend, and was quite excited about reading it. I got through it in four days, which for a non-fiction book is quite good for me!

The content of the book itself makes it quite difficult to get into and sometimes I felt like I was being lectured at. I mean some of the stuff these so called "perfect couples" say is just plain cringey. However, John Gray is not well-known for his writing ability but for being able to explain the differences between men and women and why they cause so many problems in relationships. His theories on the "man cave" and "men are like rubber bands" are actually quite interesting and since reading I have noticed these things in my boyfriend and in the other men I know!

Since reading I may have even tested out his theories on language usage and taken his on how get what you want, with actually quite positive results...

Rating: 8/10. My boyfriend will be reading this next!
