review 1: I just have to write a review of this book because I feel a kinship to the author. I've have such similar experiences throughout my life and while I have not quite gone 25 years, some of the thoughts and statements she makes in this book could have been pulled straight from my own life. I loved that she wrote the book as though she was talking to a friend. I feel that I could have been friends with her, easily, and we could have bonded over our lack of experience and other unconventional interests. I hate that she (and I) feel that because of our interest in those unconventional things are a cause of our perpetual singleness. Why can't the people who think that is adorable and interesting flock to us? And having recently started online dating I absolutely agree with, it's ... moremade me realize, similar to her realizations throughout the book, that which I'd love to be in love, I'm good at being single and I'm not really looking for someone who I think is "fine." I also had a similar realization to the one that the authors friends Rylee had towards the end. In being single, I am free, to travel, to change jobs, to essentially do anything, and as the author said, I've always had the freedom, I've just sort of learned how valuable that really is, and this book just helped me to reaffirm it.
review 2: Katie, you've been on "dates" but you never had a boyfriend. I seriously applaud you for having the courage to write about what so many women have experienced. And I enjoyed some of your observations on the miscommunication between men and women. But I would find that I had read pages of a chapter and couldn't recall anything I had just read. Maybe one day when I want to relive my college years and awkward dates, this book will POSSIBLY resonate with me. Until then I'll just sit here in confusion and ponder why someone's unedited journal was turned into a mind numbing novel. less
