A couple weeks ago a publicist contacted me about a book she’d send me if I would be kind enough to review it on my blog. Last week I received the book and have been eagerly reading it in my free time. The title is Unhooked Generation: The Truth About Why We’re Still Single, by Jillian Straus.
I haven’t gotten very far yet but what I’ve read is awesome. I probably would have bought this book anyway if I’d seen it at Barnes & Noble at the New Releases section. The intention of the book is to figure out why our generation seems to find it so much harder than our parents’ generation to fall in love and sustain a healthy relationship. Hence the title.
From the dictionary in the back of the book:
Unhooked: Unattached, single. Also refers to members of this generation who are in a relationship but aren’t fully committed.
What I’m looking forward to discussing is If our generation finds it so natural to hook up, expected even, then why are so many amazing people perpetually unhooked?
*I welcome comments, opinions, topic suggestions, for future reviews from this book as I continue reading. This is very much only the beginning of a series of posts about dating and (non-)relationships.
