I received an ARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
It's 'He's Just Not That Into You' for the digital age!
As soon as I found out that I would be receiving this e-galley for review, I logged on to the website to check it out. And immediately, I understood the need for this kind of book and the website in this dating age. I, for one, have often thought that my boyfriend's e-mails or texts mean one thing when he completely means the other!
This was a quick and easy read. The authors cover a variety of topics that are questionable to many men and women alike. I also love that they have a panel of men who offered their opinions on the different topics as well.
Overall, it was a great book but it just wasn't for me. I study relationships in school and I'm planning on going into therapy, so these kinds of books never really appealed to me. I'm a firm believer in the fact that every situation is different. From an objective standpoint, though, I thought that this book was well written and could be quite helpful. I am definitely planning on picking up a copy or two for my college friends who are just getting in to the dating game.
I actually got some insight into the digital age of texting and it was quite helpful. A lot of the examples they used were from the twenty-nothings that don't know themselves or how to be socially relevant but it made the book amusing. I'm 53 and I think it helped me somewhat. Having the men's perspective was an excellent 'add'.
