If Someone Says "You Complete Me," RUN!: Whoopi's Big Book of Relationships by Whoopi Goldberg

I had read the audio version from the library. I think the audio version is the only way to do her justice. I love love love this book! She is such a hoot! I live her humor. I loved how she was extremely open minded and gave some great tips. There are swear words, so if you get offended easily. But this is a really refreshing way to look at life and relationships. A definite must read.

I was expecting more takes on the author’s single life stories, but I suppose since the title of the book did emphasize on relationships, I was getting to the wrong book. Hope one day Whoopi could center the singles in her upcoming books, being one of the few single-at-hearts she is! I’d still recommend the book; realistic, uplifting, and humbling at the same time!

DNF at around 75%. Not particularly constructive advice, and moreover, I found it toxic to listen to. It made me really dislike Goldberg, and I realised I didn't respect her or her opinions enough to finish the book.

I love Whoopi Goldberg's sense of humor. This book is not so much a humorous book as it is a self-help book for the person who is struggling with relationships, Whoopi style. Whoopi has opinions and she shares them with you. You may or may not agree with the details, but the overall theme is that you have to take care of you first and be yourself before you can be in a relationship. Be honest and open from the start and never compromise.
I would have liked to see more of her humor coming through. It was still fun to listen to her read (I listened to the audio book) but overall it wasn't a book/message I thought I needed to hear, but it may be good for people that need a new outlook on their own relationships.

Overall, this is a good read. Whoopi has a number of valid points mixed in with humor. I enjoyed it. As an audio, her delivery was excellent, as expected.

This book is for single people who are comfortable in thier singleness and those who are in between relationships. Auntie makes it very clear that she is very comfortable in her singleness and is a big fan of booty calls which she also calls "hit and runs" 😄. If you are someone who romanticizes relationships based on social media and romance movies, you are not gonna like what auntie says in the first 3 to 4 chapters. If you make it pass those chapters, I believe you will appreciate the advice. In my opinion, the advice she gives is solid, funny and very true.
