Book Reviews of Dumped: A Girl's Guide to Happiness After Heartbreak
Book Review: The Perfect Post-Breakup Primer
Summary: 5 Stars
"Dumped" is great for helping us all deal with the inevitable breakup. The best tips like "don't call your ex" and "don't call his friends," are KEY. Many of us like to dissect and re-dissect every blasted moment in order to search for tell-tale signs indicating the relationship was headed for Splitsville, population = you! The book points out the big indicators like "he picked fights about stupid things," "you hardly ever held hands or kissed anymore," "you seemed to be the only one texting and emailing," "he suddenly got way too busy for you," and so on.
"Dumped" seems a bit different than other breakup guides because it actually has a whole chapter dedicated to letting you mope around. Usually most books want you to get right back out there, so it's refreshing to see a book admit that you might want to wallow in self-pity for a few months before wanting to read all those tips on how to pick yourself up again. And it really goes though the steps you'll be feeling and why -- Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance.
I also really liked the music and movie lists the offered as things to listen to, read or watch when you're sad and angry. The "Play 'Em and Weep" list had everything from Badly Drawn Boy and Beck to Johnny Cash and The Beatles.

Dating is fun?when you?re not getting dumped. But breaking up is not the end of the world, and Dumped will get you through it. A compact read with invaluable advice, Dumped teaches you how to read pre-dump warning signs, confront post-dump exes, laugh at your misfortune (and see it as fortune!), and move on to greener pastures. Complete with real anecdotes from teens in the trenches, Dumped is the ultimate guide to coping, moping, and dealing with heartbreak.
