This book had me crying from beginning to end and helped me process and validate an extremely isolating and traumatic experience that I don’t think I will ever recover from .

Informative, but focuses heavily on romantic relationships with narcissists.

Very deterministic and generalizing. Not only towards the narcisits but also the victims. It feels very much like her own story, projected on all victims. I could forgive this because the advice sometimes was very good and it told messages victims really need to hear. But she lost me when she started to talk about empaths en Myers-Briggs indicators, pseudo-scientific generalisations bordering zodiac signs. No nuance is not the right way to give tools. It might give some short term hope, but it rarely makes a long term impact with deeply wounded victims.

This was great and exactly the book I needed. Saved me in a lot of ways and made me feel like I wasn't crazy. Sometimes repetitive in some places but this is brilliant.
