No Man Ever Chose a Bitch
About the book
What if a woman actually tested all the rules women are taught about how to make a man choose them? No Man Ever Chose a Bitch is a witty contemporary women’s fiction novel about Lera, who decides to turn modern dating advice into a real-life experiment. Be mysterious. Don’t be too available. Know your worth. Give him space. Let him pursue you. As Lera puts these familiar rules to the test, she encounters a collection of painfully recognizable male “types” and increasingly absurd dating situations. Each encounter becomes part of her experiment, complete with a playful Candidate Card — type, key characteristics, danger level, and verdict. But behind the humor, disastrous dates, and female friendship is a bigger question: why are women taught how to be chosen instead of how to choose? Funny, sharp, and painfully familiar, the novel explores modern dating, female expectations, self-respect, friendship, and the relationship rules women inherit from one generation to the next.
