The Curable Romantic: Advice for the Romance-Impaired
Romance isn’t dead, but it has been analyzed into a near catatonic state. The Curable Romantic has arrived on the scene to revive the romance in your life through amusing, lighthearted observations and whimsical illustrations.
“The curable romantic is not anti-romance. Being a curable romantic isn’t about eschewing the concept of love and related notions but about approaching such things in a more sensible fashion. It requires a willingness to put aside head games in favor of an honest connection.”
The Curable Romantic is a compilation of humorous essays on love and relation- ships and how we handle them. The anthology’s four sections cover each phase of the modern romance—companionship, courtship, relationship and jumping ship. Each essay addresses critical concerns like who to date, how to choose an appropriate pet name, and what to do with keepsakes after a breakup.
The Curable Romantic is an indispensable guide for women (and men) who just can’t say no to love.

The Curable Romantic: Advice for the Romance-Impaired is a witty, humorous look at the wonderful and scary world of dating. This book hits all the topics from …first dates to relationships to how to tell when to break it off.
Author, Katherine Miller doesn’t shy away from anything in this book. It is more like a fun guide on what not to do if you hope to no longer be single. While, I liked the illustrations and the short chapters, I found myself not laughing as much as I thought or hoped I would. While at times the advice may seem silly, Katherine never promises to be an expert but someone who wants to share what she has observed. I liked that she is honest and up front about this at the very beginning of this book. Though, The Curable Romantic: Advice for the Romance-Impaired may not help you find your perfect match, it will hopefully provide you will a few laughs about the whole experience of dating.
