Dispensing priceless advice such as "Never date someone in a band," "Once a cheater, always a cheater," and "When someone says they want you just for sex--chances are they want you just for sex," this hilarious parody of clichéd, saccharine relationship books offers an inspiringly jaundiced view of love.

This beautifully illustrated self-help book for the love-weary appropriates scenes from a lifetime of failed relationships. Its intelligent, droll commentary on the nature of love is ultimately informative--if in unexpected ways.
