Quite good book on how it is for singles and what to do with it.
The authoress is very honest with her feelings, troubles and fears and I find it very refreshing and relatable. I am sure that many singles will find a trusted sister in Christ in Lisa Anderson, she has her heart on her sleeves here, accompanied by her goodwill and the dedication to help here. And she is single lady in her early forties, so she knows A LOT about the subject, and is not shy to share.

While I can not relate to all of her views, I find a lot of them deeply refreshing, reassuring and giving hope - and hope is what a lot of the singles is missing, hope and the meaning of all of this.
She is also a straight shooter (which I like), and, as any true friend, she is not beating around the bush when there is the need to tell some hard truths (gently and from the position of speaking from her own experience).

I would love to read more about just living the state of singleness. Not in the hopes and preparations to marriage (the bookk tends to slightly emphasize this in my opinion - which is not bad, but not my preference), just being at the phase of life (however long will it take), experiencing it fully and maturing in love while being there.

I recommend the singles and their friends/family/fellow people to read this book, you can gain some valuable insights here.
But I also recommend to read more book on the subjects - the Catholic authoress Dorothy Cummings McLean wrote the wonderful book "The Closet's All Mine!" on this subject, and Mandy Hale is also lovely authoress to follow.
