There is a theme that the moment you lose a person you think you are in love with you either sink into a sense of self dispair or you get revenge by living life to the full. I broke up with two girlfriends and regretebly broke their heart but turned out to be brilliant as both these quiet women with not much going on went travelling and get degrees. Thank goodness I did. This is a book about those radical changes although love keeps back in. I'll be honest, I am not the intended audience for this book and you would have to pay me to read it. That doesn't mean its not good. Just not a rim com fan
