Helpful Score: 2

I want to write this author and not only give her a big hug, but also a high-five for getting it right. Everyone has heard the cliche of how "hard it is out there" to date. The stereotypes of meeting in a laundromat or Barnes & Nobel are ridiculous. Instead, what has come to pass is a stream of the most ridiculous, horrid, awful dating experiences that would make any sane, awesome woman want to spend time on her own, with friends, or in the company of her cat (and many great books) instead of bothering. This (thick!) book is a wonderful recounting of Ms. Graff's craptastic experiences dating many different men. It made me think, "I am not alone." I also like that she's 45- this isn't a teenybopper book. It is the most relatable book I think I've read in ages. Many of her stories make you cringe, but they also make you nod your head and think about the guy from two weeks ago who you wanted to throw yourself out of the car while it was still running just to get away from him. You won't be able to put this book down! It is wonderful!
