The notions of “If you believe it . . . it will come!” or “Whatever you think you attract” are familiar to fans of The Secret, Norman Vincent Peale, and Napoleon Hill. Now relationship guru Amy Spencer utilizes these concepts and brings them to the mainstream relationship aisle, writing a practical, step-by-step guide on harnessing “Dating Optimism” to find one’s perfect match.

“Half-Orange” refers to the Spanish term mi media naranja, which describes one’s beautiful, sweet, and perfect other half. Spencer’s program shows women how to grow one’s “half-orange” from seed to “fruit-ion.” Rather than admonishing readers to make themselves more available, or turn dating into a full-time job, Meeting Your Half-Orange teaches how to focus on the relationship you want with such intensity, the right person will come along within a short period of time. “Dating Optimism” is a fun, results-oriented way to meet one’s match—and early readers have already manifested their Half-oranges after adopting the program!
