The book is about learning what constitutes "Cupidity" in a relationship. According to the authors there are emotional, mental,physical,social and spiritual cupidity. From the first chapter "..acts of Cupidity aren't disastrous, and they are most often reversible.They're what some like to call opportunities to "fail forward." Every failure at love is just a chance for you to learn more about what not to do. And that's not just the case in dating; the first year of marriage is often full of close-quarters Cupidity." Cupidity is about the differences between a man and a woman and how each gender handles certain things like women wanting romance and a man wanting a soulmate. Each chapter gives advice as to how to avoid these Cupidity challenges, aka stupid love, and to have the relationship with your significant other that you want . Along with the relationship advice on how to deal with the cupidity there is spiritual advice as well. A lot of quotes from the bible to help you on your way to changing your lives. I found, for the most part, this book to be interesting. Did I disagree with some of it? Yes I did, I have been married to my husband for 27 years and together for 30. We raised four children together from the cradle and assisted them in flying from the nest. A marriage is a partnership and both genders are equal in my mind. The book states,as in the Bible,that a woman should honor and obey a man. I think that the man and woman should honor and obey each other. Again, my opinion. This book was easy to read and uplifting in a way, but not a book that I would use in my life. Would I recommend it to others? Yes I would. There was some humor in it and like I said a lot of reference and quotes from the bible that that in itself helped me to understand the message that the authors were trying to tell the reader. Oh yes, I liked cover and the font is a maroon color instead of the usual black print....This book would make a great gift for the upcoming Valentine's Day!!! aucune critique | ajouter une critique

I find most of the information in the book to be believable, however, I do also believe that this book won't pertain to every one. Each person is different, so each relationship must be as well. I am happy that these tips worked for Hayley and Michael, but it may not work for you, so don't live for it. Learn from it.
The one criticism I have is how jumbled the thoughts were inside the book. In the middle of a paragraph, it jumps to some cute drawing with tips inside, then you confusingly find your paragraph again. Happened a little too much for my liking.
I have to say though, I really loved the way the authors spoke candidly while writing. It was almost like having a conversation, not reading. (Minus the blips in paragraphs here and there.)
All in all, this book gets a 3/5 from me. Some will love it, and others will hate it. Really you have to decide for yourself. ( )
