About the author

I've been writing for a long time, since third grade actually, when I wrote a romance serial starring everybody's favorite hunky science teacher, Mr. G. Every day the girls would gather under the slide to hear the latest installment of Mr. G's feats of romance and bravery, which involved things like giving only the third grade girls cupcakes, or riding up on the playground on a white horse to save one of us from a boy with cooties.

The girls in my class were hooked, and so was I.

More than a few years later, I wrote a dating advice book called STOP GETTING DUMPED which miraculously hit the best seller list (thanks for that, everybody.)

A few years after that, I figured it might be even more fun to create a whole guy from scratch, and I wrote my first romantic comedy, a novel called FIFTEEN MINUTES OF SHAME, a fictional (I swear!) account of a popular dating expert (not me!) who finds out on national television that her husband is cheating on her.

Well let's see, it's been almost 2 years since I read this book and I'm not close to getting married yet so we'll see if the 3 year promise holds true! Honestly, it's again some of the same trend of books that came out with the "He's not that into you" grouping of let's use humor and get right to the point about why we aren't finding good men. This one is about the same but uses a little more of the physical appearence factor as well. I guess I still haven't learned my lesson about these books and keep reading them anyway. Some parts were cute, some points were very obvious and some of the words picked me up when I felt down about myself but then again, that is what friends are for, not books. I think we still need to remember that it's not always us and rather than trying to figure out what we're doing wrong all the time, it's so much easier to just forget about it and just be ourselves. That always seems more attractive anyway!

While this did give some good advice, its really outdated now that everyone has Tinder and smartphones and everyone's like it's 2019, the guy shouldn't have to pay if we're all equal! So I think even gentlemanly guys get confused about what they're supposed to do and what they even want to do these days. Maybe it works to always be busy either with dates or hanging out with your friends but geeeez this kind of life sounds freaking exhausting especially if you have a full-time job. I haven't tried any of the advice in this book, so I can't speak on how well it works but I don't think I ever will because I work too much to have energy to have "fun" all the time like going out with friends when I don't have a date lined up. I thought this book would make me laugh but it actually made me feel hopeless LOL. It was a quick, interesting read though. I recommend it only if you're the type of person who always has energy and doesn't need alone time. I wonder if the author is still married?🤔

I did not learn much.If you read the book ''Rules''. You don't need to read this one.

[Oriyah N · Rating 4 out of 5]

I want to say that I wish I'd read this book back when I was single, except that I *DID* read it then. It is essentially an updated, more concise, slightly more lenient version of The Rules: Time-Tested Secrets for Capturing the Heart of Mr. Right. But I read both at the time, reading this one first, so it seemed The Rules was merely elaborating on this little book.

In any case, the contents of this book were a hard pill to swallow. I certainly didn't succeed in following all of the book's advice, though there were things I was able to incorporate into my dating life SLIGHTLY, and they seemed to work. The thing is, I didn't quite believe in these books at the time. Now, with hindsight, (always 20/20, right?) I see how true they are.

Fine, not all women are so shallow (ahem...cosmetically inclined. Have I mentioned that I'm a little judgmental?) as to be excited by a manicure, makeover and massage. Not all women enjoy, or have the stamina, to make plans and GO OUT every day of every weekend. Some women are cool and fabulous and perfectly happy, or even happier, to remain at home and have some serious down-time. And that impedes the implementation of these rules/guidelines/whatever.

I totally recommend this book to anyone in "the scene" who's finding herself with limited options (or no options) and especially to my mother, who trained me think that asking guys out was a good idea. But not everyone is going to be able to hear it.

This is a book that all single women must read! There will be many times while reading it that you will be slapping yourself on the forehead wondering “why did I ever do that” or “why did I ever let a man treat me that way?” It lets you know all the things that you have done wrong while dating and helps you correct those mistakes and become an expert on getting a man in your life that will actually respect and love you.
