" Angus Nelson is honest. He’s been around the relational block, and isn’t afraid to tell his painful, yet redemptive story. Love’s Compass is a gift to those who struggle to make their relationships last. "

" There’s nobody (as far as I know) addressing the issues facing today’s college crowd with Angus’ frankness and blatant honesty—not even Donald Miller, though he writes well. Anne Lamott is frank and honest and a great writer, but she comes across as a self-absorbed whiner without his innate sense of responsibility. My generation is incapable of this level of honesty. Angus Nelson has a unique gift, and a huge demographic who are dying for it. "

What People are Saying
About Love’s Compass:
• “I’m not sure I’ve ever read anything so honest. He opens himself up to the reader in ways most of us can’t imagine ever doing. In that revealing lies the beauty of this book, because it’s through this honesty and openness where we can most relate, and quite possibly light the spark we need in order to learn to forgive ourselves for the mistakes we have made in our relationships… Love’s Compass reads like an honest and hopeful memoir, inspiring and motivating readers to find their own insights and to be the change they wish to see.” - Chris Singer, review on BookDads.com
• “This book moves with energy and lively descriptions, weaving between story and lesson as deftly as a race car threading through the pack.” - Kay Campbell, Huntsville Times
• “…all I can say is WOW. No one knows it but I am going through some things with my relationship right now that I was causing stewing from feelings from my past. Angus, Your book is AMAZING it has helped me so much, I literally took some of the things you said and wrote them on paper and taped it to the mirror so I can start my day off every day reading it. Thank you so very much, I am telling everyone that I come across how good it is.” - SN, Alabama
• “I read the book and loved it! I highlighted the crap out if it!! :) So many good things and so relatable!… I know I am not alone in going through something like this… It brings me hope knowing my future can be healthier and happier.” - GT, Virginia
• “I hate to admit it but the things you say in there are some of the EXACT things that I’ve thought or done. Pride was a hurtful thing for me when I got divorced. Like I had a disease I didn’t want people to know about. I was embarrassed, really was shocked about how much I saw myself in the book. I’m glad someone else has gone through a LOT of the things I’ve done or said or thought.” - AD, Alabama
• “Angus, all I can say is ‘wow.’ I was so incredibly touched by your book. I got it this afternoon – and read it in one sitting. I was a blubbering mess after reading it. My heart was just heavy reading it – not because I was sad – but because it was the first time in 38 years that I realized I was not alone in my regrets. It was the first time I didn’t feel shame in my mistakes, but realization that I can let go and start to move forward. I look forward to rereading it. You truly are a blessing! THANK YOU!” - TS, Florida
• “The book itself hit me right smack dab in the heart. It is powerful and makes you think about your own relationships and where you are in relationships to them. It makes you ask so many questions about yourself as well as about the actions that you are or have taken in the past to hinder your ability to love others. “ - CL, Michigan
