 Review of Whose Life Is It Anyway August 9, 2008
This is an excellent book. I'm on my second reading of it. For anyone who wants to develop better boundaries and relationship skills, especially if the tendency is to be co-dependent or easily hurt by others -- this is the book for you!

Detailed and practical this book is filled with great information and exercises to get you thinking about the ways we invite and the ways to work out of the grasp of the varied vampires, Machiavellians, narcissists, sadists, or combination there of that might have infected YOUR LIFE.
Chapters
1-Overwhelmed, Enmeshed and Manipulated
2-Emotional susceptibility and Seduction
3-YOU ARE NOT ALWAYS RESPONSIBLY FOR OTHERS (I LIKE THIS ONE A LOT!)
4-Let others have their feelings. (Brilliant! Yes What a concept!)
5-How You Play Into Others' Hands
6-Psychological Strength
7-Emotional Strength
8-Your Creative Self
9-Your Inspirational Self
10- Better Relationships
References
More than 10 exercises dispersed throughout the chapters to do or not. If you don't do them it won't effect your ability to get through the rest of the material either.
Just what I needed to boost me out of the caregivers rut and narcissistic family.
Read and get on with YOUR LIFE! ;-)

I took the title of my review from someone else who wrote about this book.
I expected intelligent essays and all this book has is a shopping list of ideas. The author does not explore any of her ideas.
This book is a sorry excuse for a book; it is more like a brainstorming activity or a better phrase would be, it is merely like a shopping list.
I read it twice and was afraid I was missing some gems. The fact is the book is missing any real content. It is a real joke that the publisher put this book in print.
One of my favorite authors is Elaine Aron who wrote the Highly Sensitive Person. Elaine has more useful information on her web site than Ms. Brown has in this book. Save your money!!!!!
Worst self-help book October 10, 2006
6 out of 10 found this review helpful
Save your money and invest in other self-help book that is much easier to relate. The author seems to paint a very grimm picture of human relation. Many parts of this book writting were very confusing. I could not help but think book was written as an outlet therapy journal for author herself. There are much better self-help books out there in the market. Check this book out at your local library before investing your money on buying one.

This book is amazing. They say that the support group for children of functional families is the smallest in the world. This book is for the rest of us. If you have ever done something you didn't want to do because you lacked psychological strength of self and adequate boundary control, or if you have ever had someone else violate your boundaries in other ways, you need this book. It will help you identify the reasons you have allowed boundary intrusion, and will teach you how to mature into a self-directed person with healthier relationships.
