Book #2 in my current reeducation quest...it's long and thorough, and pretty practical; however, it doesn't speak to me the way "Where to Start and What to Ask" did. I like the atheoretical orientation, but I also feel like it's more of an effort to drag myself through this one. Update -- okay -- now I've finished it. Overall, my first impression still stands. The writing was okay but not great, which made the book a little less accessible than I would have liked. I really liked the practical exercises and examples; I found them very illustrative. I don't know whether it's possible to write counseling exercises for the budding therapist that will translate into real life (especially if you don't have a partner to practice with), but if it is, these are good candidates. I felt like the skills they were teaching and having me practice were very relevant and useful. I guess the true test will be once the internship starts...
