Love Life

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW

In 2013, rising young relationship coach Matthew Hussey published a book called Get the Guy that urged women to find the right man by becoming their best selves. Over a decade later, Hussey is no longer in his early 20s, and he’s had his own heart broken a few times. So Love Life is an older and wiser take on romance, but Hussey’s overall message is the same: People are in a better place to find love when they’re happy with themselves. (Oh, and his guidance now is geared toward both women and men.) There’s a practicality to Hussey's advice—whether you’re stuck in a relationship that’s going nowhere or you’re trying to get over someone who was never into you. As on his podcast and YouTube videos, Hussey’s narration is utterly charming, filled with self-deprecating asides. Whether you’re actively looking for your special someone or not, this book can help make you a better person—and a better partner.
