skeletomes 's review for:
Never Have I Ever: My Life (So Far) Without a Date
by Katie Heaney
I expected a fun, humerous book about a nerdy girl like me with a similar love life, but instead all I got was a far-too-lengthy "memoir" of a 26 year old's boy obsessions.
I think this book may have been more interesting if Katie talked more about herself as a person and not just her past boyfriends. The title reads "My Life Growing Up Without a Date" but all she talked about was literally the dates she did go on (I was told there were no dates?) without really introducing us to her as a person. I didn't know who she was when I bought the book and here I am, 252 pages later - still clueless.
On the other hand, and the reason I gave this book two stars instead of one, is that I liked some of the things she had to say about love. That's it. There were a few interesting quotes in there, but all in all, it was pretty damn boring.
Call me frustrated, but I'm tired of spending $20 on books only to be disappointed by a lack of substance. *sigh*
