Book Description

The Dirt February 1, 2005
To date or not to date? It's easy to ask that question, but not so easy to find the answer. With her usual straightforward style, Hayley DiMarco helps teens sort through the pros and cons of starting a new relationship. She takes a look at why guys and girls are so different when it comes to dating, how to know if he or she likes you back, and even how to perfect the art of flirting. And what happens when a relationship gets more serious? How do you know if it is true love or not? All teens have these questions. The Dirt on Dating has the answers.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 6-10 -Two books to help teens navigate a path through two thoroughly confounding subjects. Dating has a conservative Christian viewpoint, with a liberal sprinkling of Bible verses. Its overall message and well-intentioned advice may get lost as readers encounter some of the author's strongly held convictions about male-female relationships, chiefly that marriages are not equal partnerships but rather male led (a point that the author concedes is a bone of contention even among Christians). Much of the text is common sense, perhaps old-fashioned, but practical about dating and choosing wisely whom to date. Particularly good are the "Definitely Different Date Ideas," which are fun suggestions for daters of all ages. Drugs takes a more secular approach. Lookadoo was a probation officer in East Texas and talks straight with readers about different drugs, what they do, and why it's a dumb decision to take them. His no-nonsense approach and readable text make this book a good choice for a much wider audience than Dating. Both texts are slickly done and visually appealing.-Elaine Baran Black, Gwinnett County Public Library, Lawrenceville, GA

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Godly Intro To Dating, May 10, 2006
By 
This review is from: Dirt on Dating, The: A Dateable Book (The Dirt) (Paperback)
This book has been very helpful to me; it has opened my eyes into what the opposite sex really wants and doesn't want. This book has solid advice and common sense principles that will make sense almost as soon as you read them. And it reveals all of this and more in a Godly way, making this a sure book for any Christian teen who is wondering what dating is all about!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dirt on Dating, March 9, 2006
This review is from: Dirt on Dating, The: A Dateable Book (The Dirt) (Paperback)
Great book! The guys in my youth group are really enjoying it. If you're looking for a book that delivers a Biblical view on dating while using a totally different book layout than you're used to, then this is the one.

5.0 out of 5 stars not like other dating books, June 29, 2006
This review is from: Dirt on Dating, The: A Dateable Book (The Dirt) (Paperback)
If you're worried, wonder or even asking questions about dating than this book is for you. If you're christian or not this book has tips on dating beyond your wildest dreams. It's informative and leaves the decision up to you, whether dating is right for you or not.

Other dating books just focuses on the negative side of dating and why one shouldn't. I strongly recommend this book to the individual, male or female, questioning dating.
