Modern Love: True Stories of Love, Loss, and Redemption by Daniel Jones, Andrew Rannells, Veronica Chambers, Ayelet Waldman, Amy Krouse Rosenthal
3.0

There are a lot of essays in this collection. A LOT. Unfortunately, many were average and not very memorable. If you ask me about this in a week’s time I am pretty sure these few lines will be all I have as proof that I even read Modern Love. A handful of stories were touching (usually the ones that involved death), some read like self help (grrrr) and some could be skipped altogether. I’d recommend this collection be read in short bits, lest repetition and boredom may seep in.

Overall impression: Borrow. Divert money funds elsewhere.
