Best Collection of Essays Ever!
I purchased this book on clearance a few years ago from Amazon to hit the free shipping limit, and to my surprise it became one of my favorite books of all time. I tend to read before I go to bed, so I especially like essay collections because you can read one or ten. The problem with this book was that I would frequently be literally laughing out loud, and that isn't too conducive to falling asleep. I think I have read it probably about 5 times and passed it to at least 4 other girl friends who have found it equally as hilarious. The stories are just too funny. Definitely worth any amount of money, on clearance or not.

Hysterical
I generally don't read books like this. I was worried it was a self-help book but it's not like that at all. Its absolutely hilarious. Cindy is spot on with her dating observations, and her personal stories had me laughing out loud. I read this on the way to a bachelorette party and finished it in one flight. I was a little nervous reading it initially - I thought it might be a downer. But it was the complete opposite. This book not only provides a good laugh, but makes you realize that you're not the only one dating horrific men. There are plenty of other stories out there - some of them much worse that yours!

funny and insightful
Bits of tried and true pieces of wisdom. It is definitely funny, and is a book that helps people who are tired of the failures of dating feel like others are with them. All the while, making you feel better through laughter. It certainly made me smile many times and is a good book to get one's spirits back up after yet another failed relationship.

Full of laughs when you need it the most!
This book helped me laugh at myself and recognize my ex in the descriptions of boyfriends past. The author helped me view my breakup in a different way and realize we all go through similar junk, but in the end, we are all hopeful for the future. Helped me be happy with myself 'between boyfriends' and when I was ready to start dating again, noticed those red flags a little bit quicker and didn't take myself so seriously! :)

Loved It-Therapy for the Single's Soul
I was given this book as a present from my sister. I have to say I absolutely loved it! Every Chapter is both funny and emotional. I could relate to alot of what the author wrote. For a person who has always been "in between boyfriends", this book provides hope, laughter and at sometimes therapy for a broken heart. I purchased 3 of these books for my cousins and gave it to them for Christmas.

This book is so good! Cindy Chupack has an amazing gift as a writer. It was so much fun to read! I laughed out loud many times! I highly recommend it and will definitely be getting more for gifts. Just hope she writes another book soon as I have already read "The Longest Date, My Life As A Wife" which was absolutely awesome!!!

Light, fun reading for a day at the beach
I borrowed this book from the library and enjoyed it so much I just had to own it. Read the lemondade diet story - it will have you rolling on the floor laughing. Cindy Chupack also wrote for Sex in the City.

A bit brainless
Funny and entertaining! The majority of young women can relate to several of the topics and stories in this book. A humorous and sarcastic look at dating and life in a woman's twenties and thirties. A bit empty, and not necessarily worth paying hardcover price for, it's a pretty fluffy 150 pages. I got this book for almost free, and I found it enjoyable.This book was okay, but I HIGHLY recommend checking out The Thrill of the Chaste by Dawn Eden. Eden's book is also very funny and insightful. Check out the reviews and give it a read. I found it to have much more to offer than The Between Boyfriends Book.

Gloriously funny and extraordinarily spot on!
Omg! I bought this book a year or two ago and it was like reading my own personal diary of mishaps and misfortunes in today's dating climate. This book absolutely resonates with me from page to page. Cindy's observations are beautifully written to comedic perfection, she is refreshing and articulate and at times the stories make me squirm with embarrassing memories of being in that same or similar situation. I am so excited to share this little gem with my friends and have lent my copy so many times, I cannot risk suddenly needing to revisit it when it's Awol and so the only solution is to have an additional 'lending copy'

So funny and smart!
I read this book in one sitting! Pure entertainment and a few pearls of wisdom as well! I love Cindy's effective and hilarious take on dating, life and evrything in between

まるでキャリーのコラム
ドラマ『Sex and the City』が好きで、キャリーのコラムをぜひ読みたいと思ってる方にオススメです。特にキャンディス・ブシュネルの原作本を買って何かが違うと思った方!(あれは、原作というよりは“原案”ですよね~)特にオススメします。 もちろん、劇中のコラムのように深い心理まで掘り下げたり、疑問形で始まる訳ではありませんが(笑)、ドラマの関連本で著者自身がライターチーム全員の体験や考え方をキャリーや他のキャラクターに反映させていると語っているように、エッセンスは同じと感じました。 これを読むとニューヨークでキャリーにばったり会った時に「コラム読んでるわよ」と言える気分にさせてくれること請け合いです。
