Never Have I Ever: My Life (So Far) Without a Date
by Katie Heaney
I know the premise of this book SEEMS shallow. And okay, yes it is. But it's wholly entertaining and a really interesting look her story, which is increasingly rare but not unrelatable. The book read as though Heaney were confiding in one of her friends of her relationship status, which made it light and fun.
I actually enjoyed this book! Katie is funny! And I actually understand her story. It resonated with me. There are so many times when options EXIST, and it's totally possible for something to happen, but that's no reason to actually go through and start dating people.
If you think about it, there are so many factors that have to fall into place for relationships to work out. First, there has to be mutual attraction. Then the time and location have to be right. Then you have to communicate with each other. And you have to take a chance. More often than not, the people you like are not the people who like you (and vice versa).
I understood where Heaney was coming from in a lot of different aspects. Some people are lighthouses. Some people are magnetic. Others just can't seem to get there. It was interesting seeing from her perspective, although I'd love to see where she ends up in a couple years. Will she feel differently if she ever falls in love? Well, I guess only time (and experience) will tell.
