I'm a big fan of Jeff's, and this book didn't disappoint. It was voice-y and had something in it for everyone, regardless of what your relationship status is. Great, accessible advice, and it doesn't come off as preachy.

I enjoy following Therapy Jeff on Tiktok and was excited to see his book and the chance to spend more time than just a couple minutes in a Tiktok. However as I started reading this to review, I realized this just isn’t the right time for me and I decided to DNF. Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the free book to review.

I both enjoyed Jeff's Tik Tok presence and short stint on the podcast This Changes Everything, so I was excited to read his book. I will say, if you aren't interested in millennial references or Jeff's style, this may not be for you. However, I quite liked it! I thought I was prompted to think through some really important concepts as the reader. At the same time, the content was really accessible and easy to understand!

I had some mixed thoughts on this one. Overall, I think it was solidly in the middle. I don't think this will be for everyone-- if you're not familiar with his Tiktoks, Jeff has a very distinct voice and I don't think everyone will enjoy it. I love his videos and even I thought it was a bit much sometimes. But he's still an entertaining writer, and I swear I could almost hear him saying these things as I read them. That said, I think the topics and ideas covered here are pretty basic Psyc 101 type stuff. I didn't come across any deep revelations as I worked through this. (And to be clear, I committed-- I had a notebook with me and answered every question written in the book). Additionally, I read through this slowly, and went through a range of relationship statuses as I did so. I started completely single and am now hoping to cross that DTR bridge any day now. So while it was neat that I got to experience some of the different relationship stages as I read about them, I still don't know that this book was particularly helpful for the relationship. I think the prompts can be very useful but it will really depend how deep you're willing to go, and I don't know that many folks are willing to push themselves that far. I think this would be a good book to read in conjunction with therapy so that you can really dive into the answers you come up with for each chapter. But on its own, the weight it carries for its readers will vary quite a bit.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC!
I love Jeff and watch his content on TikTok so was excited to read his book. It delivers! It has all the quality advice mixed with humor that I’ve come to expect from Jeff.

what a fun, helpful book! i first heard of jeff on a podcast, and decided to check the book out to hear more. this book was so entertaining but informative at the same time. i loved both the questions that made me reflect on my life and the lighthearted tone and pop culture references. you wouldn’t believe how seamlessly it all worked together! great book for anyone in any stage of a relationship!
