About this listen

Everyone fears being alone. Loneliness can, at times, be terrifying and anxiety-inducing, especially when everyone around you seems to be enjoying their blissfully perfect relationship. But this anthology, comprised of 16 honest and thoughtful essays, will remind you why being single may not be the worst thing in the world and that, simply, it will all be okay in the end.

Solid ending (but I’m in my 50s not my 30s so younger folks may or may not agree)

Clearly the people that had an issue with this book or not complete being alone. It was hilarious and refreshing. It totally describes the life of a everyday single person!

The worst

I suspect that most of her stories are made up. Nobody is as dumb as she pretends to be.

I made it 17 minutes in before archiving it.

Dumb

The entire book repeated itself…almost same each chapter thought I accidentally rewinded it! Could not even finish it because I had no desire to hear same 1-15 list again

Repetitive

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

This was a odd book!!! The writer sounded mad and the narrator sounded hurt. Again a very odd book.

They big hurt

The way the narrator tried to change her voice between the early chapters was almost offensive and irritating . The book itself "the terrible loneliness of being single and why it will be ok". Every chapter until the last final 5 minutes of the book were about why being single is the worst, most depressing pathetic stage of life. The "bad" was highlighted in excruciating painful snarky slit-your-wrist now detail. The "good" was equally depressing as in " yay. You can even masturbate standing in the living room in front of the window". Yes perspective readers, that is supposed be one of the "positive" aspects of being single.

I'm all for sarcastic humor, but chose the book for the "and why it is all going to be ok".

This book is for you if:

you are on the fence of being depressed over being single, and need help getting to full blown depression. Or

You just got out of a horrible relationship and need to wallow in the negative aspects of being in a relationship.

I did stay to the end some what out of curiosity, the way I'll watch a really horrible movie thinking that eventually surely it will get better. Also because I wanted to see if there would ever be any "and it will be OK advice." (Which was basically you'll live through ).


The most depressing book EVER

This wasn’t worth $1.99. There is nothing worse than listening to someone go on for 1 hr 45 minutes...thinking they are hilarious. Yes if you have simple humor, enjoy stories and laugh at pretty much everything, then this is for you! If you’re looking for something serious for a sensitive, personal issue, then keep searching.

Uff!
