Much Ado About Loving: What Our Favorite Novels Can Teach You About Date Expectations, Not So-Great Gatsbys, and Love in the Time of Internet Personals
- Used Book in Good Condition
â€œA treat for any book lover, happily mated or cheerfully singleâ€ (USA TODAY)â€”two popular journalists give hilarious relationship advice borrowed from the most famous characters in literature.

Finding love should be easier than ever before, given all the freedoms we enjoy. But as it turns out, the more options we have, the more difficult attaining romantic bliss becomes. We wonder: Should we put all our energy into online dating, or hang out in bars to find someone new? Should we settle for a friendship-with-benefits, or refuse to stop looking until we happen upon true love? And if we do manage to achieve the impossible and find a perfect matchâ€”soul mate, sexual dynamo, and best buddy all in oneâ€”how can we beat the relationship doldrums when they come, as theyâ€™re bound to in this hyperactive society?

In our quest to reach romantic nirvana, we turn to self-help manuals, magazines, talk shows, friends, relatives, and shrinks. But weâ€™ve overlooked the true font of wisdom: the timeless stories written by great novelists. Thatâ€™s where Much Ado About Loving comes in. In its pages, two book lovers who are also advice columnistsâ€”Maura Kelly and Jack Murnighanâ€”relay the lessons in life and love that theyâ€™ve learned from reading more classic novels than your English teacher, while having far more romantic conundrums than all of Jane Austenâ€™s characters combined. Theyâ€™ve done the heavy readingâ€”and the recovering from heartbreakâ€”for you.
