The book isn't so much a well of advice as reassurance that women who are intelligent and high-achieving (in a very normative and mainstream-defined way) can find 'love' and satisfying relationships. The book can be a nice read if you're really concerned, as a heterosexual woman, about aging and not finding a partner but overall, I didn't find it particularly engaging.

i won this book in a raffle and was slightly curious, but i could not read past the second chapter. i skimmed to the end, and it was just dumb. it deals with outdated stereotypes about smart and successful women; any woman who needs to read this book needs some serious help in the self-esteem dept.

For "how to" guide for intelligent women, this book isn't very smart. It never actually gives the advice it promises it will give, instead it just claims that women's fears that guys don't like smart successful women are unfounded...ok but then what!

A great book for single successful woman wondering why they are still single..."being a SWAN is a sea of sharks"
