Schaeffer, Brenda. Love or Addiction? Expert Publishing/Healthy Relationships. Minnesota 2006.Annotation: This handbook is a powerful resource for teens and adults in understanding love and if they show signs of addiction. There are many steps and advice on what to do; as well as an audio CD that that has teens in their voices sharing their personal experiences.
Justification for Nomination: This book really I feel would be a useful guide for teens and those trying to understand their emotions when faced with love. Love is a touchy subject for some teens when they are already trying to understand why their bodies our changing. This book provides personal stories for each category. Both genders will find this as a powerful tool. There are stories that would be similar to "Chicken soup for the soul" type. Readers will want to have this book around the house when they are raising a teen, working with them or trying to relate from past experiences. the author currently works in Minneapolis, Minnesota for Healthy Relationships. This book is real, it doesn't give artificial hope it gives great advice for ages fifteenth to twenty-two on what to do in certain situations. Signs your in an abusive relationship, that your possessive, your love addicted etc. Plus there are quizzes to take on love and other romance areas. This book touches on key issues that affect teens emotionally. I read many similar type books that are suppose to be helpful but this one sure meets expectation!
Genre: Romance
