This is officially my first post. I recently graduated from the City College of New York with a Bachelor's degree in English, a concentration in Creative Writing to be exact.
With that being said, I recently read Become Your Own Matchmaker: 8 Easy Steps for Attracting Your Perfect Mate by Patti Stanger with Lisa Johnson Mandell. It was published a year ago but i wanted to wait until it was published in paperback. I know it sounds a bit cheesy to read a book like that, but I am curious on her take on the whole dating process. I have been a fan of her Bravo TV show Millionaire Matchmaker since last year and I absolutely love her bold personality. Even though the main idea behind the book is for a woman to get married in a year or so, she does bring up some valuable points on dating and relationships.
Another book with the same refreshing honesty is Crash Course in Love by VH1 host of Tough Love, Steve Ward and JoAnn Ward. I also happen to love watching this show just for the fun of watching it. The book is mostly written from Steve Ward's perspective and he is pretty blunt. With this book, the goal isn't aiming for marriage but for a committed relationship. It's definitely more realistic, not to say that Stanger's book is not the same, but it's definitely fun to read.
I always find it amusing to talk about love and relationships because everyone has an opinon about it.I might think this is okay to do but when you read it from a matchmaker's perspective, he or she might say that you are going about the dating process the wrong way. I'm sure mostly women would be interested in these types of book such as myself and it's always a good way to transition into another conversation-- one about love.
