This book will heal you
As a woman I have been through my share of heartbreak and have read many, many books on self help and healing but none like Dear Self. This book and the writings of Ruby Dahl have resonated with me. Touched a place in my heart, soul and mind that no book or writing has ever done. IF you are hurting, if you are experiencing loss of love, loss of yourself then this book will help you find your way back to you. And you will come to realize this is the most important road you will travel.
Amazing!
Started on the first day I got it and I'm so happy I purchased this book because so amazing! The author really made me tear when realizing the reality in my own life. but a great book for self-care.
Get it!!! Really nice!
Strongly recommend!!!!! I’ve order all books for my gf and she loves them all. I read a few and very touching!
Great Read
Super helpful in the journey of healing from a heartbreak. Thank you Ruby. The road ahead is long, but you have paved the way for a deeper understanding. There is always something to be grateful for. Our stories are all different...but soul pain is what binds us. Here's to healing and being a better version of ourselves....for ourselves.
Depressing
If you want to learn how not to love anyone else other than yourself... read this book. If you want to take advice from someone about relationships that has admittedly not had a relationship for more than 4 months. Read this book.
So good. Very uplifting
The best book. Very uplifting and inspirational.

Dear Self is a MUST read! This book is so Powerful!!! WOW is all I can say! Thank you Ruby! ❤
perfectly written
great 📚
Love it!
Great book so far!
Great book for adolescents & young adults
All over it’s a good book. I bought it for myself on Kindle, and almost a fourth way through, I sent a copy to a friend, thinking she would love it. My only issue is that the writer is 25 years old, and states that a couple times. This is an amazing book for anybody in their early 20s, I am in my 30s and it was hard to be taking love/healing/growth/break up advice by somebody who has experienced just a quarter of their life. If you are between the ages of 16-25, you will absolutely adore this book. If you are over 25, there are so many other great healing books out there that are more relatable.
The words you never knew you needed to hear
A powerful collection of healing words laced with authenticity and empathy. If you're going through it, you need to read this. I started my self-care journey in 2020, and reading Ruby's work has helped me navigate through it--the good and the messy.
Love !
Love this authors work can’t wait to read more
Beautiful.
This book resonated with me so much. It really has been helping me find my way through life and it’s heartbreaks. Thank you for this book, it makes me feel like I’m not alone.
Yes.
Always here to support self-publishing authors and this one most definitely deserves it! Not only does she capture you with her words but the way she makes you feel.
Amazing!
Absolute amazing book! Hooked me almost immediately. The author did an awesome job on this book. You should get this book y’all! Take it from me, a book fanatic XD.
A must read
Would highly recommend this author. Love her work.
Amazing read!
Ruby’s book was amazing, raw and had such a positive influence on me! Definitely one to check out! sending love & healing to those who seek out books like this :)
Amazing!
I very rarely write reviews but felt compelled to in this case. I followed the author on Instagram and thought i would give this a try. I am so glad I did. Eloquently written, the author does not preach in anyway. She utilises past experience to impart profound perceptions on situations that are just so relevant. I found her positivity thoroughly refreshing and will certainly be purchasing some of her earlier work.
Unexpected cover
I received the old version, not the one with the new cover?
Must read
This book was a amazing read, it was like each page was a breath of fresh air. Dear Self speaks volumes and Ruby has covered so much in one book - fantastic read for anyone!
Beautiful and inspiring
I discovered this writer on Instagram and bought one of the poetry books. Something about her writing is like a firm, warming hug for the mind and soul. This book is like the best advice from a friend who has gone through heartache. It's frank, sincere, beautiful and inspiring and gently guides you to a better mental place.
The perfect book for self-care
Very powerful book, highly recommended. Inspiring & perfect for self reflection to a journey of healing.

unexpected book cover
Good thing Ruby Dhal’s book is amazing and well written that it compensated the unexpected book cover that i received in the mail today. I was expecting the blue cover of dear self but i got the older version🥺
Appreciated
Felt Like Someone Is Talking Within Who Has A Similar Thing To Share Of Exactly What I'm Going Through Currently...!!
