Every chapter was different yet each chapter was amazing. I found myself in tears, even while reading in public. A perfect read whether you are letting go now or still letting go from the past. 💙
Found this book at the perfect time. It’s a must read for everyone!
Awesome book! I shared this with my gf from work since she’d going through a tough time letting go of her toxic relationship. I’m a victim of domestic violence and toxic relationships so I understand how important this book could be to someone who truly doesn’t know how to let go. Thank you 🙏🏻
It was good
Took a while to finish.
I’m not sure how I didn’t realize that this is a compilation from many different authors, most of which were women. Which implies that it’s mostly men than break the hearts of others. This probably has a lot of truth to it, but it’s not the whole truth. I still got a lot out of it, even if it wasn’t what I expected.
Pretty good book could have, more lengthy chapters but worth a shorthead
This book opened my eyes- I loved every page the truth in these lines will give you another perspective 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 👍🏼
Loved this book, helped me so much!
amazing! loved it
Great Book!
A little dramatic, but if you can separate that, and take it the lesson, the drama in it is only to grasp your attention to receive the message.
I liked the book but didn’t like how it referred to the person I want to let go as a he.
loved it!
Reassures that is not easy, or romantic to fall out of love, but is a way to became a better person.
Just a collection of Whining women.
It helped me overcome my sadness; it was a great book to read and help you be a better person.
Love is mysterious sometime. Never underprice yourself. Always strive to be the best self, and what you deserve will be there for you.
teaches a lot!
In some areas of it it was very direct. Some parts were very true to the title of the book.
This is a good book.
Such an easy read and I just simply enjoy reading it over and over again.
Good quotes
It’s amazing how you are not alone in the world. That there’s thousands of people going through the same thing. Thanks to these words I found a lot of strength within myself.
One of the best books I have ever read!
This is a great book for healing your heart.
this was such a helpful book. I just got out of a relationship and helped me so many times not text them in a spur of the moment!
Great read!! Lots of insight and really has me thinking.. great writing piece!
Beautiful I loved the different story lines it made me feel okay to feel the emotions I feel
Suggested
Only because the ending was blah. The start of the book was wonderful and I was highlighting and screenshoting but then the book kind of just went stale.
This is def a must read if you’re dealing with a breakup or loss. Very direct and straight to the point! I LOVEDD IT and literally couldn’t put it down. Can’t wait to reread tomorrow 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love this book so much. It has very good details about a breakup and how to heal. It’s so good. I love it.
Amazing book!!!❤️
Lessened learned!
Didnt flow well
There were some grammatical errors, but overall I loved the book. The insight is definitely there and it brought reassurance to some things that I was already feeling.
This is the only closure I needed… thank you for making me realize so much plus my worth.
I am currently in the process of a divorce but I started reading this book when I saw the signs before the discussion/argument came. I would read a little then stop because of other life events but as soon as I picked this book back up, I read chapters on issues I JUST FACED. Like I was meant to stop reading where I did. I totally recommend to anyone facing a breakup, divorce, separation. It really does bring light to a lot of what we are feeling. Not only women but men as well. Great book!
Great book to read for letting go.
This is a wonderful book to give to anyone going through a breakup. It gives helpful insights and understanding into the different facets of “Letting Go”.
Everything in this book is the reason why I’m able to move on with a broken heart and still stand strong
I’m healing from the breakup with my first true love. This helped so much.
This little book is loaded with what you need to hear after a breakup. The essays are easy to read & Re very meaningful.
Amazing amazing book! Thank definitely recommend to those who are actively working on themselves.
Decent book. Great quotes. Highlighted some wonderful and meaningful parts. Overall, it’s a book for mainly women, on getting out of our head and learning to move on. It would have been a great book for me in my early 20’s, not as a middle aged married woman. I highly recommend it for late teenagers and early 20’s. Great concepts!
I loved this book for many reasons but the main reason is because when It was over I didn’t want it to be.
This book was really good. I could read it everyday. Short but good.
This book is amazing. I dont know why its free.
i absolutely loved this book! it helped me through so many things and i did t have to make myself read, i wanted to!! i am absolutely in love with this book!!❤️

It allowed me to do a lot of reflecting on relationships of the past. Realizing that everybody goes through some sort of heartache. That you’re not alone. How in someway shape or form everybody’s relationship ends just the same. Let letting go is not only good for your mental health but essential. There’s a reason why things are in the past.
It’s a good read for someone who doesn’t know all of these things, that it teaches you and how to let go when that’s the choice you made and have to live up to it.
Great collection of different perspectives on the subject
One of the Best reads!
Amazing book!! Helped me to come to terms and let go
A very though invoking and well written book. I only would have preferred it if the author being a woman; would have made the book a non-sexist perspective. By that I mean, using only gender neutral terminology rather than from a woman’s perspective. Very good book.
Helpful and good insight
My last relationship was the one where i put all my eggs into the same basket - The one that I was so determined to see cross the over the finish line because of the effort and time that I had already put into it. I had forgotten that the most important part of any relationship is my happiness (not to say that your partners isn’t important too) and whether it serves you well. I was too busy trying to keep her happy that I lost myself in the process. This book bought me back to reality at a time that I was lost. It bought me back to my senses. There’s nothing I could do to repay the author of this book for the amount that this book helped me. As I always say, take what you understand out of it and leave behind what you don’t. It’s not just a book to me but more so a lifelong friend, who reached out their hand to me when i was in a time of need. Thank you I’m forever grateful

This little book is a good read for those trying to get over someone as well as for those who wouldn’t mind a little wisdom or a pick-me-up. It’s quite short and completely free, so you’ve got no excuse for not giving it a go ;)
Just what I needed to read.
This book has helped me so much with a current issue I’m facing, I’ve grown as I person and feel wiser
This book is good, it really helps
Such an easy read... It really opens your eyes to see another way about things. It's not only helps you but it will help you dealing with other people that come to you for advice. I really enjoyed reading this..
This book is packed with situations and comforts you in knowing that you are not alone.
Good book
Solid advice from a range of sources addressing all aspects of heartbreak. A timely read for me, and a worthwhile one.
This book is hands down the best book I have ever read. Definitely a must read for anyone going through a break up. I'm about to read it for a second time.
I would highly suggest you to read this.. if you're having difficulty on letting go of the things or people arround you that you like or loved but you just can't let them go..
Very good but most of it is about relationships.
Great read put my current situation in to perspective
Regular
A good book for teenage girls who are going through breakouts or had one/more but ridiculously repetitive.
It helped a lot, I took some notes, it has some grammar mistakes but I enjoyed it. Thanks

best book ever. especially if u are going through a breakup!
A quick and must read.
If I would have read this 3 years ago, I would have loved it. I’m in a different headspace now but for the better. There were also many grammatical errors.
Very inspirational and I’ll recommend this to my friends
I honestly don’t know how to feel about this book. I feel like I didn’t get much out of it. The writer just spoke of her experience when men. I was hoping for a book that guides you in letting go not just past relationships, but also friendships, deaths, jobs, etc
Written from one point of view
Would have given 5 stars but skipped one chapter because it was a little hokie.
I think the book was very beneficial. Lol, I with it more so for both male and female but overall it gives you a ton of perspective. Loved it!
Great book perfect time in my life ☺️☺️☺️👌👌👌
It was a relaxing read , I shed a tear so I gave it 5 stars
Great book.. will recommend it to others
Lots of good points.
i loveeee thisss <3
Lightweight but that’s a good thing sometimes
I wish I had read this during my first heartbreak!
Very insightful and gave me lots to think about. This book is one to keep on hand and re- read when you doubt your gut and your sanity.
I hoped this would be about grief through a loved ones passing. It's about grief over being rejected.
This book was everything help me acknowledge my worth.J**y
Easy read with a wide variety of perspectives
Just what I needed to hear after my divorce.
Loved this book , opened my eyes to barriers I have faced.
A masculine male here who enjoys self help books/podcasts. I heard about this one through a few sources but never researched it for myself. With that being said, I had no expectations. I just started reading it the other day and it kind of caught me off guard due the writing coming thru the woman’s view point. However, there are gems that are still available to all individuals who remain open minded. After a few chapters, I did begin skimming through. I could feel the feminine energy with most parts of the book even after placing things into the masculine perspective but it only helps so much. I would still recommend the read. Offers great tips, especially for women (or men) of early adult, late adolescents.
One of the best books I have ever read!!!
great book and it was free 💞
I discovered this book while stranded for three days in Lexington, Ky. waiting for repair of my car’s failed transmission in the absence of decent reading material. The title led me to believe it would help me address my tendency to cling to things - memories, pictures, documents, recordings, souvenirs. (In a similar way, Fëanor and the Elves brought war, destruction, and death to Middle Earth in *The Silmarillion* with their desire to “preserve all things unstained” - first, the light of The Two Trees in The Three Jewels, and, then, their desire to punish Morgoth after he destroyed the Trees and stole The Jewels.) By the time I realized the book focused exclusively on relationships, I also realized I would have to look elsewhere for the counsel I sought. Nonetheless, I very much enjoyed the book and found many resonances with my own experiences. I even recommended it to our daughter, who is navigating the treacherous waters of a divorce from her husband of several years. This was my first experience with e-reading and (I must confess) I liked it. It allows me to access an entire library or bookstore from a device that fits in my pocket! Now - if e-readers can emulate the feel of a page as fingers turn it or the the smell of a freshly opened book, I’ll be in literary heaven...
Great read took a year to read but by the end of it I managed to break it off with someone I still do love and want and hope the best for This book may have not been an English lesson but it showed me I have to put my future before my feelings. And that the biggest strength we have is letting go(:
I really enjoyed reading this book. It helped me understand more on a couples of things that run through my head a lot. I highly recommend this book, especially for those who struggle with letting go.
Great book for girls in their 20s.. well done.. self help.. great tools to get moving after a break up.
Amazing!
Needed this
A must read for everyone.
Gives you a different perspective of life and relationships. It’s a real eye opener
Quick and easy to read.
This was an easy and empowering read. I read it over two days, including on a plane ride. It was beautifully written and had a lot of good quotes incorporated. As a mental health professional, I felt it reinforced a lot of good points as to how to prioritize yourself first in your healing journey.
This book was fabulous. It’s a great way to show coping mechanisms when learning how to move on. It’s a positive spin on such a negative time in peoples lives. Highly recommend!
Boring
I liked everything about this book! I wish I’ve read this book fifteen years ago.
This is such a good read so far. Cried a few times because it was so relatable. Found out that I really need to LOVE myself before anything. Thank you. I needed this.
i’m on page 35 but i’m obsessed!!! i’m so hooked it’s such an amazing book i would 100000000% recommend
I recommend for those that need closure, insight and understanding.
I cried so much. This touched my soul.
Enjoyed every word!
To understand life without stressing your mind 💋
I can identify with almost every word. And for writing what I believed in my heart to be true but my thoughts are so scrambled and unsure what’s real what is true I couldn’t confidently make a decision. If you can make sense of what I am trying to convey here. Reading this book gave me complete confidence in my thinking again. It helped me accept what I thought was true all along. The conclusion chapter Difficult Relationships , at the very least , has given me , so far half a day. Half a day feeling hopeful again. For me. For my life. For my future. Thank you , author of this book the Art of Letting Go. You helped me to allow me to feel peace. And Peace has always been what I have been seeking in this crazy world and crazy times. Thank you Higher Power, one more time you kept loving me until I was ready to love myself again. M. M. Thomason A very grateful person for all life’s good and all life’s not so good.
This was a great book! I really loved it! So inspiring, and very helpful! Great book
This was an eye opener. I definitely enjoyed this, Props to the women behind this. 💗
I recently went through a hard break up. 4 years together and out of nowhere he called it quits. Seriously. This books helped me grieve, and also just get a new and fresh perspective on break ups and letting go. Highly recommend it!
MY FAVORITE BOOK, this is the type of book you can read over and over again and learn something new everytime
Great read. Done within 5 hours. You can feel yourself heal while processing your memories: pain and nostalgia couple with a plethora of emotions that her practical advice and relatable quotes make you relive and feel. Worthy read. Helped me a lot.
