When DH and I were engaged, we ended up in a really odd conversation while sitting around the dinner table with two of my friends and DH's enDad and uBPDmom. My friends and I were talking about books we'd read recently, and DH's mom chimed in, "I'm reading a book called Walking on Eggshells. It's really good." I was taken aback, because goodness gracious, everyone else in her life needed to read that book in order to deal with her! I said, "That IS a good book," and she looked at me oddly and said, "Oh, you've read it, huh?" and then, addressing my friends again, said "It helps parents love their grown children without driving them crazy." 

It wasn't until later that I found out that the book DH's mom had referenced was not Paul Mason and Randi Kreger's book Stop Walking on Eggshells: Taking Your Life Back When Someone You Love Has Borderline Personality Disorder, but Jane Isay's Walking on Eggshells: Navigating the Delicate Relationship Between Adult Children and Parents.

There isn't a huge point to this story except to try to prevent any confusion when any of us recommend "Stop Walking on Eggshells" to others. It was kind of a hilariously fitting case of mistaken book identity in this situation.

I wonder what would happen if you'd give her a copy of 'Stop Walking on Eggshells'

Based on the title and what I've read online, that other book actually sounds very interesting, for parents as well as for adult children.
