From Publishers Weekly
If He's Just Not That into You told a woman how to spot a man who's not really interested in a relationship with her—and how to deal with it proactively—this follow-up is for those, male and female, who've been blindsided by a breakup after thinking Everything Is Fine. Speaking less this time from a guy's perspective and more as someone who has been dumped and survived, Behrendt tackles the often inevitable symptoms of a broken attachment: the obsessive thinking (and calling and e-mailing), the crying, the debilitating depression (and its effects on one's job performance), the crazy acting-out, the food and spending issues, the friend burnout. This time, Behrendt is aided by his wife, who offers her own breakup stories, with the two together serving as a constant reminder that one can love again. The book is padded with not-so-funny vignettes, and anecdotal letters from readers are answered in a rather wearying Dear Abby style. There's little new or insightful, but Behrendt's frankness—never too harsh—is as winning as ever, and the title is catchy. Everything is more or less in place for this burgeoning franchise.

From AudioFile
How to recover after you've been dumped is the theme of this snappy relationship audio. The HE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU co-author and his equally savvy wife use natural-sounding humor to deliver sophisticated advice about moving on once a relationship dies. Cogent vignettes from the authors' own lives and genuine encouragement make this a supportive, intimate, and powerful audio lesson. Their colloquial and often X-rated language make their message as hip as it is helpful. All in all, this is a compact lesson on how to get out of the doldrums or agitation of lovesickness with a lot of solid ideas for avoiding the common mistakes associated with failed attachments.
