Healing with Books pt. 1

Hi! Welcome to my series.. Healing with Books where I share self help books that have impacted my healing journey. Book #1 is “Single On Purpose” by John Kim. To answer if this book is worth the hype.. I must say 10/10 definitely recommend. This was assigned to me by my wonderfully wise therapist after I went through a hard breakup. I struggled with truly knowing my worth and needed to do some major work on refining myself. This was my first self help book by a male author and I had some fears going into it. Looking at some reviews on Goodreads almost spooked me out of reading it but once I allowed myself to see what my therapist gave me this book to read, I was able to really learn about myself and the relationships I build with others. This book was more than just about romantic relationships to me. I thoroughly enjoyed the reliable stories and journal prompt questions. I still grab the book from time to time to refer to as I continue on this never ending journey of self love.

Have you read this book or is it on your TBR? What books are you reading to learn more about yourself on your path to loving yourself first?

⭐️Overall rating: 5/5: Add me on Goodreads to see what I’m reading. My name on Goodreads is Eboney Denaye
