Summary
The Human Magnet Syndrome: The Codependent Narcissist Trap is a complete rewrite of Ross's first book. Ross provides a more explicit rendering of The Human Magnet Syndrome, that includes new theories, explanations, and concepts. The information on Gaslighting and The Narcissistic Abuse Syndrome, like the rest of the information, is cutting edge and completely original. This audiobook contains many more case examples and stories of Ross's own codependency recovery. Like its predecessor, it is written for both the layman and professional. Men and women have been magnetically and irresistibly drawn together into romantic relationships, not so much by what they see, feel and think, but more by invisible forces.
Codependents and pathological narcissists are enveloped in a seductive dreamlike state; however, it will later unfold into a painful “seesaw” of love, pain, hope, and disappointment. The soul mate of the codependent's dreams will become the narcissist of their nightmares. Fans of The Human Magnet Syndrome will better understand why they, despite their dreams for true love, find themselves hopelessly and painfully in love with partners who hurt them.

Very good
Very good and relevant information. It is however a bit repetitive and I would have appreciated a bit more practical information on how to apply the principles explained.

great content, hammy narrator (why????)
beat author for codependency issues I've found, I just really wish the author had narrated, as the voice artist was overdoing the sentiment, which detracted from the content. shame, but still. ... great content

Round up but no helpful advice
A thorough round up of why codependents are attracted to narcissists and vice versa but no helpful advice on how to get out of the dynamic/self improvement- last chapter focuses on "next book" which pledges to do this, there is no next book, only a $125 seminar

A much needed read/listen
Highly recommended if you're serious about making sense of your repeating dysfunctional relationship patterns. This book has been enlightening for me. Good luck on your journey to self-love deficit disorder syndrome recovery x

How were you able to write my life’s story?
It all makes sense now. If you suspect you suffer from these conditions. Get the book and don’t look back.

I'm not impressed
The book discusses codependency and narcissism. Although the author starts by explaining and advertising in excruciating detail how helpful the book is supposed to be and how interesting and new these perspectives are, quite a lot of it is repetitive and not particularly interesting. The author starts with the provocative hypothesis that both disorders are to blame equally and claims to dissect and explain why and how... before just painting one of the disorders (narcissism) in the bleakest and most devilish colors, while portraying the other (codependency) as producing helpless victims.
There are a few anecdotes, a lot of cringy family history from which no real lessons are drawn and lots of repetitive, unexplained allegations as to how narcissistic people pull the strings of codependent people. The world, however, isn't divided into just these two extremes and I have met very toxic people that partially filled both roles at once. The author so far hasn't even acknowledged the possibility of any grey areas: There's just narcissist and their codependent victims and they are drawn to each other with by the magnet syndrome.
Not only is the book extremely repetitive, it spends much more time trying to sell why it's allegedly awesome than really providing insights. One bad metaphor chases the other: love is like magnets; and gravity; and a dance; and light waves; and a play with people on costumes; and a simple math equation, etc. ... none of these bring any real insights; they are just used to again and again and again provide the same examples of very similar people doing the same things.
In some parts this sounds more like a preacher trying to repeat unfounded beliefs in the hope that any statement, repeated often enough, makes a truth.
While the narrator has a pleasant and nice voice and his pronunciation is very clear, I don't particularly like the way he is emphasizing pretty much every sentence. I'd have preferred a less intense and more balanced voice.
