Just started and finished GLAEN today and got a
review up. I wish I would have had this when I was a teen. I'm looking toward courting for my children,
hoping I can get my husband to read this one day. Lots of highlighting in my copy. - Sarah Bailey (http://bit.ly/b5I8TY)
Glaen was an
interesting read. There are definitely some principles within that I need to apply in my own
relationships. This modest book, which is under 200 pages, would be perfect for a senior high youth
group to study, or even a small group of engaged couples. Many excerpts are worth underlining,
highlighting, and reading again. In fact, I wish this fable/instructional text had been available
20 years ago for my generation. Lybrand is to be commended for his discernment and for the creative
manner in which he presents these important principles. Glaen will be an answer to
prayer and a gift from above for
many.
Annie is a college grad-student who is stumped
about love. Her mom and dad are in the throes of a divorce, her teenage sister is obsessed with how
her boyfriend makes her look, and her closest friend Jennah is on a continual ride of running off every guy
she dates. Friendships, dating, romance, and marriage – it’s all confusing to Annie until the day a
white-haired stranger appears in her life.
Glaen is an unusual professor with an unusual name. Her
white-haired unconventional mentor guides Annie on a path of discovery that unlocks the secrets of real
relationships in a world gone phony. By abandoning herself to learn, Annie discovers the mystifying affect of
how learning to tell the truth changes everything in friendship, family, and love.
What a fun book. Not only is it entertaining and a
great read, but it is educational and insightful as well. It really helped me to take a better look at
romance and dating. Glaen is has been a great tool to start discussions with my teenage daughters and
help them to understand romance and dating in a healthier way. Thanks for getting it out there, it's a
fresh approach to an age old discussion...

The solutions Dr. Lybrand offers in this book will
astound and free you to quit doing the very things that take away your ability to find the love and
friendship you want. More importantly, you’ll discover a fresh path to the possibility of greater connections
with those you care most about. You’ll want everyone you know to read this
book...twice!
I purchased two copies of GLAEN this morning
and am sending one with my mother. I am really enjoying the novel, taking notes on the
general relational principles I'm gleaning, and certainly wish I'd been handed a copy of
GLAEN during my first year or two of college. Thank you for putting this information out
there, for sharing these true principles with your audience. I wish everyone seeking a
relationship -- no matter what type of relationship -- could implement these principles
therein.

ROMANCE vs. TRUE
LOVE
Glaen will help you explore the fact
that romance isbased on the unusual and exciting, while real
relationships often involve periods of mundane and difficult things in life. Honestly, don't you want
someone who will be there when the times are challenging? Don't you want someone cheering for you in the
day-to-day, rather than constantly asking "What have you done for me lately?" Romance is great for an
evening, but Glaen tells you the secrets of what will last a lifetime.
