Listopia > Must-Read Dating Books

Singles struggling with dating--and let's face it, we've all been there--need practical, real-world advice. Dating doesn't happen in our heads. It happens in our bodies as we put them out in the world, in our smiles we flirtatiously share, in the romantically enticing prose we text or whisper in the most alluring ways. Dating is not a game we win from the benches. Books in this list should get singles out there doing a little living again and believing romance, and maybe even love, might be around the next corner.
