Reader Reviews

"This book had me CACKLING on public transport. Aleks doesn't just tell dating horror stories: they give you the tools to recognize red flags before you're knee-deep in chaos. Essential reading for anyone who's ever thought 'but maybe this time will be different.'"

"Finally, a queer dating memoir that doesn't sugarcoat anything! Aleks writes with the perfect blend of humor and wisdom. I highlighted so many passages that my Kindle probably thinks it's broken."

"The audiobook is INCREDIBLE. Aleks laughing at their own chaos is *chef's kiss*. Perfect for commutes, workouts, or whenever you need a reminder that you're not the only one who's dated absolute disasters."

"I bought this as a joke gift for my friend after her latest dating disaster. We both ended up reading it and having deep conversations about boundaries. Who knew a book about terrible boyfriends could be so healing?"

"Aleks writes like your brutally honest best friend after three drinks and no filter. Every chapter had me thinking 'OH MY GOD I DATED THIS PERSON TOO.' Therapeutic and hilarious in equal measure."

"This book should come with a warning: 'May cause uncontrollable laughter in inappropriate places.' I read the entire thing in one sitting and immediately ordered copies for my entire friend group."
