This was the first thing I've read by Caitie Quinn, but I intend to look for more. When I first began reading, I thought, "Oh, no, another book about a bunch of snarky girl-friends." But no. That's not it. If you think the same thing when you start reading, give it some time. Trust me.I laughed out loud at parts of this book, and totally empathized with other parts. While I'm happily married, I have several single friends of both genders, and the things they tell me about dating and trying to find a decent person to date just about make my blood run cold.Sarah is "The Last Single Girl" in her group of friends. The others are all married or have recently met someone--after planning a single girls' night for New Years' Eve. Claire, the self-appointed leader of the group, goads Sarah into saying she has a date. Hence Sarah's desperate search for a guy.Cue several bad dates, all in the same little coffee shop, owned by a nice guy named John. After three bad dates and two non-dates (that'll make sense when you read it), Sarah decides to go to the party alone. Not only does she go alone, she looks great, and she stands up to the nasty Claire.And then ... well, you need to read the rest. I'm no spoiler. This was a good, clean read, with a sweet ending. I'd recommend it to anyone.
