This book is definitely a 5 out of 5, and the foremost thing is its title which perfectly describes the contents of the book. The tone of the book is light and humorous and Poppy Mortimer left no chance to make the readers laugh with her clever, hilarious and witty way of using words. Most notably, she sustained a talk with the readers throughout the entirety of the book making me feel like chitchatting to a friend from another mainland.

Each story is concise and to the point, so the readers do not have to travel through unnecessary descriptions instead she focused on taking us readers on a roller coaster ride of emotions throughout the book.

I enjoyed reading how at the end of the book Poppy Mortimer jotted down the traits she wished for and did not wish for in a man. The names of the chapters, the divisions in each chapter and especially the warnings in difficult chapters make the book even better. In the editing, I found no misspellings or grammatical errors.

This book is a must-read for light readers and the ones thinking of diving into the dating pool, this book gives an idea of not just the kind of person to avoid but also the activities.
