“The book clearly conveys the science behind loneliness. It can be a helpful primer for anyone who desires more affection in life or is worried that a friend or family member may be suffering from an affection deficit. Like the best self-help books, The Loneliness Cure convinces readers that ‘it pays to reach out for help when you need it’ and gives them the confidence and tactics to do so.”

 — Foreword Reviews

“Floyd frequently encourages us to interact with the book … which makes this a more engaging read. … I felt well informed and armed with strategies to make real connections. … Floyd leaves readers with reason to feel hopeful about present and future relationships—which, given how bottomless loneliness can feel, is no small task.”

— Psych Central

“Kory divides the book into three parts that show how and why humans need affection and often lack it, help readers evaluate their level of affection hunger, and give six strategies for satisfying that hunger and banishing loneliness. His colloquial style combines anecdotes, questions for the reader to reflect on, and explanations of the research he conducted … thought-provoking.”
