Resumen del Editor

"I've been single for my entire life. Not one boyfriend. Not one short-term dating situation. Not one person with whom I regularly hung out and kissed on the face." So begins Katie Heaney's memoir of her years spent looking for love, but never quite finding it. By age 25, equipped with a college degree, a load of friends, and a happy family life, she still has never had a boyfriend...and she's barely even been on a second date.

Throughout this laugh-out-loud funny book, you will meet Katie's loyal group of girlfriends, including flirtatious and outgoing Rylee, the wild child to Katie's shrinking violet, as well as a whole roster of Katie's ill-fated crushes. And you will get to know Katie herself - a smart, modern heroine relaying truths about everything from the subtleties of a Facebook message exchange to the fact that "Everybody who works in a coffee shop is at least a little bit hot." Funny, relatable, and inspiring, this is a memoir for anyone who has ever struggled to find love, but has also had a lot of fun in the process.

BUT SHE HAS DATED!

Would you try another book from Katie Heaney and/or Sarah Franco?

this whole book was a LIE! i was imagining a 20-something who has never been on a date, never kissed a guy, etc. but NOOOO . she is just a girl that has made out with a number of guys, had several boys interested in her, and she scared them away with her ANOYING-NESS

It made be laugh. I'm impressed with the author's candor and willingness to share even, what she feels are the most embarrassing moments of her life

Funnier and funnier

Her stories about online dating made me laugh out loud in public (having been through the experience myself recently). I thought the narrator was great - a perfect characterization of the author.

Hilarious and relatable

The story is fantastic and great for people who don't have a lot of luck romantically. Only complaint is that the narrator makes weird inflections that makes her sound robotic.
