Now in paparback, from the coauthor of He's Just Not That Into You and a Sex and the City writer, How to Be Single is a humorous account of a woman who gets fed up with New York City's dating scene and leaves the country to learn how women around the world deal with being single.

Julie Jenson is a single thirty-seven-year-old book publicist in New York. When her friend Georgia's husband leaves her for a samba teacher, she forces Julie to organize a single girls' night out to remind her why it's so much fun not to be tied down. But the night ends up having the opposite effect on Julie. Fed up with the dysfunction and disappointments of singledom, Julie quits her job and sets off to find out how women around the world are dealing with this dreaded phenomenon. From Paris to Brazil to Sydney, Bali, Beijing, Mumbai, and Reyjavik, Julie falls in love, gets her heart broken, sees the world, and learns more than she ever dreamed possible. All the while her friends at home are grappling with their own issues-bad blind dates, loveless engagements, custody battles, single motherhood, and the death of a loved one. Written in Liz Tuccillo's pitch-perfect, hilarious, and relatable voice, How to Be Single is "a summer read that, for once, accurately depicts the hopes, fears, and bad dates of a single woman looking for love" (Parade).
