Positive book for sad/angry divorcee?

6 replies

I'm looking for a self help book for my friend. She got divorced a couple of years ago after discovering her husband,who she was absolutely besotted with, was having an affair with an ex girlfriend. She was absolutely broken and only got through the first year by taking anti-depressants. Although she has re-built her life and has dated she is still very angry/upset over it and also frustrated with herself for being so angry/upset as she wants to move on.
Are there any books anyone could recommend that can help her move forward?
Thank you

Not directly about divorce, but a couple of things that helped me (ex-H left for OW after 25 years together):
The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking by Oliver Burkeman
This article by Martha C Nussbaum on anger

Nora Ephron's Heartburn isn't necessarily a self help book but is a great read if you want something humorous about going through a divorce.
