The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts by Gary Chapman
My review of this book needs to be prefaced by Dr. Chapman's own words: "I have not written this book as an academic treatise to be stored in the libraries of colleges and universities, although I hope that professors of sociology and psychology will find it helpful in courses on marriage and family life. I have written not to those who are studying marriage but to those who are married, to those who have experienced the "in-love" euphoria, who entered marriage with lofty dreams of making each other supremely happy but in the reality of day-to-day life are in danger of losing that dream entirely."
I'm a college student who has never been married. That said, I found this book to be accessible and truthful. As an academic text, it is too simplistic and repetitive, and includes overdone dialogues. However, like the author says explicitly, this is not meant to be an academic text. For its purpose, I think this is an incredible read for everyone to be more thoughtful about their relationships. Being aware of the languages will help you act on them in your romantic relationships, friendships, and familial relationships alike.
