I wanted to like this book, journal, study guide, self-help book whatever you want to call it, but unfortunately I didn't. Perhaps if I had been married or had kids it would have made a difference because perhaps then I would fit the profile the book is aimed at better. Perhaps if I didn't have a go... See full review

Larissa Ione is defnitely an author to watch! I'm amazed at her skill in creating such a fascinating and rich world, a world so vast that I anticipate spending a lot of hours enjoying the interesting and intriguing stories of her complex and equally intriguing characters.
