Couldn't finish

I was so surprised that I just couldn't make it through this book. Found it a bit self centered.

Scattered topics - many odd & rare

Difficult to get into because many of the topics Deepak covers were strange and disturbing. Not his best work

I'm sure some of it is helpful to somebody...

I only made it to ch 7, I might finish. But I couldn't get past the style of the book. Basically sounds like a never ending dear abbey column, I didn't want to hear quite so many testimonials. Not sure what I was expecting.

Educational and interesting

Any additional comments?

I liked the question and answer format as it made for something different to listen to during my long drive. The content was excellent. Listening to Deepak Chopra is always enjoyable for me as I enjoy his voice but I found the woman narrator who he paired with annoying to the point of wanting to turn it off and did several times. I thought she added too much drama and overly emoted the reading of the letters. I know many of them were quite emotional but for my tastes it was too much.

Want To Feel Good? Avoid This Book!

What would have made Ask Deepak About Love & Relationships better?

This should have offered more realistic relationship advise and featured less twisted stories that most listeners could never ever relate to, even if they tried.

Has Ask Deepak About Love & Relationships turned you off from other books in this genre?

Many other books in this genre offer much better advise than this book. Going way back to author Barbara DeAngelis, or more recently Gary Chapman's books, both of those authors and others have more realistic stories and much more relatable problems.

What didn’t you like about Deepak Chopra and Joyce Bean ’s performance?

Joyce Bean's performance was annoying. I have never heard a female narrator pretending to sound like a man when she read letters written by a male. Why bother? It's so disconcerting. Just read the stories! Deepak Chopra was fine. He was the expected Deepak. However, whoever produced this book and built the letters, the questions and the answers missed the mark entirely. This is a very depressing review of life at it's worst, making the reader or listener trudge through the mud and the muck. And, what have we achieved in the end? If anybody actually feels better after hearing, I would be amazed. If you have these kinds of serious problems, you need to see your own selected licensed therapist instead of seeking quick answers from an audiobook. Very, very disappointed in what I heard and I felt totally deceived by the way this book was marketed toward us.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Huge disappointment. A total waste of time and money.

Any additional comments?

In the future, I would hope to see more thoughtful choices before promoting something as a special purchase.
