Incredible inspiring book
This book is an incredible read so inspiring and the words speak directly to me and are so essential. Being single is hard, but this book helps me understand that it’s a process and an important part of my journey to take the time to heal myself and enjoy life.

Great Resourceful Book
This was a very interesting, straight forward resourceful book. It gave any reader insight how to better themselves from anything that could be holding them back from being the best version of yourself. This book allowed me to look within and do self-evaluation. It also allowed me to look for areas that I could improve and do better toward the old baggage I was yet dealing from past relationships. The therapist was very knowledgeable toward the information that was given. I could appreciate him giving his own life experience, so one could feel he could relate to others who may choose to read this material. One negative thing that I did not like about the book, is that he used profanity throughout the book. I felt he gave great illustration and viewpoints, and the profanity was just an expression that did not add to the reading, only was in the way of anyone who took this book seriously and wanted help in becoming whole and different after reading this. This statement is not to down the writer, only to say that it wasn't needed and could be easily left out in my opinion. Thanks for providing great material. I would definitely purchase another book by this author in the future.

The guide I needed through divorce
This book came out exactly as I was navigating divorce and discovering who I am as an individual. This book guided me through the biggest growth of my life. I keep it on display in my home because it was truly that inspiring and life changing. Give yourself permission to date yourself and discover who you truly are, with the guidance of John Kim 🤍

Very insightful, relatable and informative read
I just finished this one and it’s so awesome for ANYONE because it’s really all about finding yourself and not people-pleasing. Whether you are in a relationship or not, you need to find yourself and be true to yourself first 😝There’s only one or two things I kind of disagreed with, but everything else was solid advice and it was an easy, and at times a poetic read. Very humanizing and relatable.It’s nice to know that I’m on track because I’m already doing practically everything he suggests doing to not lose yourself. Which is another huge deal for me. I am more myself now than I have been in many years. It’s a wonderful headspace to be in. Life is pretty awesome right now. (I do have my bad days too, but they are tolerable and I can manage them way better now with the tools I have.)Sometimes I got bored because I felt like I was being given a pep talk that I didn’t need, but I get it. It was good to have it reinforced anyway.

I would recommend even if you are dating someone
I was skeptical based off of other reviews. I did *not* find that he was repetitive, like others suggested. I got this book because I recognized his name from TikTok. I think this book would have truly helped me after my hardest break up a year ago, but even being a year removed from it, I learned valuable stuff from it. Aside from that, he has a really cool perspective for us twenty-something year olds to know what the 20s, 30s, and 40s, can be like with dating, friendships, and general life expectations.I was barely able to put it down and enjoyed the way it felt like I was having a chat with an old friend. Did not feel preachy, but relatable.

So well written
Loved this book… he is so real and has a great podcast as well.

Serve un po' di pensiero laterale
Benché è vero che, come sottolineato in altre recensioni, sembri di leggere il diario di una persona e della sua storia personale, i contenuti all'interno vanno digeriti e pensati nell'ottica della propria esperienza.Credo, come molti altri che l'hanno letto, che le prospettive di vita e il modo di pensare di molti di noi si possano rifare all'esperienza di Kim, che peraltro è un valido terapeuta.Forse il costo dell'edizione Kindle è un po' elevato considerato che è un digitale

Nice read and practical ideas
The last few chapters provide a great gist to be the read, I like the flow, in between it gets a little monotonous but the last few chapters are very succinct and u would buy what he says only after you read the full book. Nice and thanks

Easy and enpowering
This beautiful and simply written book brings an important reflection to the life of NOT ONLY SINGLES BUT ALSO COUPLES AND INDIVIDUALS. I read it in a snap and realized that I could do more to life my life.

Brilliant - I'd bought it for some of my friends before I'd even finished it myself!
What a wonderful book - I'd recommend it to everyone whether you're single or not.John's writing is candid, raw but also funny at times; (the bit with the dialogue with his parents really tickled me!).I also really liked how John shares his Single on Purpose Playlist at the end of the book, it's such a nice touch.Being four months single from a thirteen year relationship, this book was a breath of fresh air and felt like a golden nugget. There were several phrasings used that really hit home for me. I'll definitely be re-reading it and checking out John's other books!
