The Joy of Imperfect Love : The Art of Creating Healthy, Securely Attached Relationships. This is an in depth book exploring attachment issues, self love, personal growth, and developing healthy and happy relationships. It encourages you to see that imperfect love is the healthiest form of love, and notes that real love is messy and flawed and always a work in progress. The book is full of good advice, exercises, food for thought and some really relatable case studies and examples. It is quite a heavy book and needs to be read slowly in order to digest it all, but it is a hopeful read full of really useful advice. Highly recommended for everyone as we are all part of relationships with other human beings.
