Swipe Right


Book Description

Dating is an intimidating adventure, especially when you’re in your late twenties; half of your friends are married and having babies, and the other half are still nursing hangovers every Monday at the office. Then there’s Khaley, who’s kind of in-between… Nevertheless, she’s determined to navigate the strange world of dating, which is made even more complicated by the fact it’s all online these days. Using Tinder and Plenty of Fish, she never knows what she may possibly encounter every time she “swipes right” or hears her phone ping. Mystery, awkwardness, laughter, and heartbreak abound. What began as a personal blog to document Khaley’s experiences in the proverbial (online) pond has blossomed into a book. Swipe Right is a humorous and touching tale that uniquely explores the joys and challenges of dating in the modern world. Single women (and men seeking insight into the other side) will connect deeply with her words and laugh along with her as she embarks on her perfectly imperfect journey for love. Khaley’s honesty and wit will inspire readers to keep their hearts open and fingers swiping while always staying true to their own strengths and beauties. www.datingformysupper.com
