I didn't enjoy reading this book, especially the first half. DePaulo frequently does use snide remarks, and those detract from her argument instead of making it funny or entertaining. With all of her snark, it seems like she's an angry, bitter single that has an agenda already set up, and that image...
The author has a serious chip on her shoulder, and is quite angry. The book raises some points, but sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Read for author interview. I was writing a lifestyle piece about how much it sucks to be single in the town where I live.
