Whether you're falling for that man-child for the 57th time or text messaging your way to stalker status, dating can make you want to find a nice roomy hermitage on Airbnb and live a solitary, monk-like life. Luckily that frustration ends now.

Annoying

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

I really don't know. Another book or perhaps different speakers.

Would you ever listen to anything by Laura Lane and Angela Spera again?

No

What didn’t you like about Laura Lane and Angela Spera ’s performance?

I really disliked this audio book. The authors/speakers had kind of annoying voices and I found the information given was kind of insipid and shallow. It might be more entertaining as an actual book, because I found their voices and demeanor quite frustrating. It seems to me to be written for people only in their early 20s, either in college or right out of college.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Frustration. I found I couldn't keep listening to it, it annoyed me so much.

examples overdone

These authors are funny and creative, however, the examples used in this book are overdrawn and overdone. If the point of this book is to provide useful advice or fun facts, it unfortunately gets lost.

Book VS Podcast

I enjoy how they added different voices for the different characters in their stories. Great Job

Their podcast has a lot of what they talk about in their book, which is great to follow along, but felt the book a little boring.

Keep up the great podcast episodes though!!

Can I get a refund?

Really annoying voices. They also use way too many overused cliches and stereotypes. I had to stop listening to it after the first 20 minutes. I tried again the next day but only lasted 1 minute before getting annoyed and frustrated all over again.

Terrible

This book tries to hard to be funny. Really regret purchasing it and it’s extremely hard to follow. If I could give it zero stars I would.

Podcast fun, book obnoxious

I feel like the whole book is just over exaggerating everything and kind of ridiculous. The amounts of advice were short compared to the other parts - very similar to their podcast (they only spend 3 minutes on the reason). I’ve read a lot of dating books and this has been my least favorite by far!
