Book Review
A short overview of this book
Loveability: An Empowered Girl’s Guide to Dating and Relationships by Dannielle Miller and Nina Funnell is a book for girls who are ready for (or already in) their first relationship.
A book for girls who are ready to have their first relationship or are already in a relationship. It talks about all the things that trouble you in your teen years, when it comes to relationships. Things like what to do when your heart is broken, what if you like them and they don’t like you, and more. It isn’t a sex manual, so the focus is on healthy relationships and dating (not sex).
This book is a little difficult to find but it is well worth tracking down.
Ideal Age
Ideal for children aged 14 to 18 years.

Hey there! It’s Cath Hak from Sex Ed Rescue, and I want to chat with you about this awesome book called Loveability by Danielle Miller. It came out in 2014 and Danielle Miller is a well-known figure in Australia. She does workshops with girls about empowerment, so she’s got some street cred.
Now, what I love about this book is that it’s not just about sex. It’s all about relationships. It doesn’t dive into the nitty-gritty details of sexual acts or how to avoid catching things. Instead, it’s a book that focuses on what love is, what makes a healthy relationship, and all the stuff that often gets overlooked in traditional sex ed classes.
Loveability is a touchy-feely kind of book. It explores the ins and outs of relationships, teaching girls how to recognize a healthy one and understand consent. It even covers how to heal a broken heart and what love truly means. Plus, it’s filled with valuable quotes from real people and packed with tons of information.
There are also some fun quizzes where you can ask yourself questions and reflect on your own experiences. It’s like having a conversation with a friend who’s been there and done that. Danielle Miller describes it as a guide to figuring out if someone is into you or not, knowing when to stay and when to go, and even finding joy in being single.
If you’re looking for a book to help your daughter understand what a good, healthy relationship looks like, Loveability is a fantastic starting point. And hey, it’s not a bad idea for you to give it a read too! It’ll give you some great ideas for conversations you can have with your daughter. Alright, I hope that helps. Cheers!
