What They're Saying

Critics Review

Unmarried, married or otherwise, read this book. It is a master class in self-worth and making your own adventures. - The Pool

Bolick’s style is a treat … A likeable, eye-opening book about a subject that concerns growing numbers of single women - The Times

Beautiful, precise and lyrical. - Elle

A clear vision not just for single women, but for all women: to disregard the reigning views of how women should live, to know their own hearts and to carve out a little space for their dreams. - New York Times

Bolick links her own experiences into the world of literature very well, whether it’s Louisa May Alcott or Mary Oliver: ‘Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?’ - The Bookseller
