Summary: Fun
Comment: This is a fun little gift book - it has a very thick cover (like those on books given to babies and toddlers!), colorful pages (and few) which are more pictures than words, but it is nice light humor (example: Look at the marrieds out there - Linda Tripp is married). It can be read quickly in about 5 minutes (I read it in a bookstore cafe), which makes me feel it is a bit overpriced for the little it contains. Don't expect this to be like some of Karen's other books (such as How to Succeed in Business without a Penis); it's more a gift book with few words. It would be a great gift book to give to a single friend who is feeling down.

Summary: Terrific Thoughtful Retorts for the Taunted Unmarried
Comment: As Ms. Salmansohn says, this is "the book every single girl needs to defend against nudgy family and friends." But this witty, humorously illustrated book is more than that, it is a wise look at the virtues of carefully choosing a partner rather than racing to the altar with just anyone. As such, this book is of equal value to young unmarried men.
The lines and the cartoons are equally funny, and nicely reinforce each other. I can only reproduce some of the former, but they will give you a flavor of the book.
". . . I can't fix you up with any cute guys. However, I can fix you up with some feisty comebacks."
". . . hold out for a soulmate, instead of a cell mate."
". . . Hitler got married."
"And God is even in a single parent household."
"Why make one man happy, when you can make a lot of men happy?"
"Married versus Marred"
"Altar versus Altered"
"Marriage versus Mirage"
"A hit single"
But my favorite was " . . . being careful about whom I marry means I've . . . skipped a few divorces."
The best part of the book is that it will cause any single person (and parent of said single person) to consider the alternative to being happily unmarried, which could be being unhappily married. That's well worth thinking about.
After you have had a good laugh with this book and considered its serious lessons, I suggest that you take at look at Relationship Rescue, which many married couples can use to improve their marriages. By examining that book now and doing the exercises in it, I suspect you'll find Mr. or Ms. Right sooner and build a better life together.
As Edith Piaf used to say, "Je ne regrette rien, j'avance."
Have a great life, unmarried or married!
