Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly
In this plucky, commonsensical guide, pyschotherapist Wolf ( 50 Ways to Find a Lover ) offers lonely singles a host of strategies for finding people to date, gettting past the first date and proceeding to romance. Lighthearted and often humorous, Wolf's advice is substantive nonetheless: her general points include how to communicate (through words and body language), how to flirt and how to cope with social events. Then there are the specifics: techniques for placing and perusing personal ads, finding support, rejecting unwanted beaus and deciding who should pay for what on dates. Her advice comes guaranteed: the publisher promises to refund the price of the book to any reader who does not get at least one date in the year after purchase. At the very least, readers will find an evening's entertainment in Wolf's encouraging company.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS BOOK ROCKS!!, June 3, 2002

By	Isaac Z. Schlueter (Sunnyvale, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

if you're looking for a nice little formula for getting laid, you won't find it. if you're looking for a magic potion that will make your favorite person fall in love with you, you'll be severely disappointed. if you're looking for a new YOU that people will like... well, if you need that, NO book is going to help you.

what it WILL give you is a whole new outlook on approaching interesting and attractive people; hard-headed good advice, and useful strategies for overcomming your shyness. information on how to flirt, proper use of body language, how to recognize signs of incompatibility, and so on. dating is a language, and not everyone is born speaking it. this book is a dictionary. it will teach you how to convey your intent without overstepping bounds, and possibly give you a whole new confidence that can come only with understanding.

1.0 out of 5 stars Might be good for women...., November 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Guerrilla Dating Tactics: Strategies, Tips, and Secrets for Finding Romance (Paperback)

This book is pretty much worthless for the average male looking to find a date. Most of the techniques would only work if the other person starts out receptive. Obviously, Sharyn has never seen the reaction most of us guys get when trying to meet women. They're usually downright rude. It's not as if one silly not-so clever line is going to make her interested. This book is up there with some other useless advice, such as "just be yourself." I wouldn't be surprised if Ms. Wolf thinks that women just want to find a "nice guy!" That's a laugh.

3.0 out of 5 stars Another List of Obvious Suggestions, May 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Guerrilla Dating Tactics: Strategies, Tips, and Secrets for Finding Romance (Paperback)

Although it always helps to read new ideas, or even old ones you haven't considered for a while, this book hardly lives up to its title or its promise. The so-called 'tactics' are nothing more than the common-sensical approaches that everyone ought to take in the dating game, and they don't so much give an upper hand to the reader, as render a level playing field to all involved. The self-help content of this book, therefore, is limited at best, but if you're a really socially uneducated or underdeveloped person, this book is as good a place as any to start. What's missing, is a more clear outline of HOW to bring the strategies in this book into practice. Bland advice like "be confident" is about as useful to the lonely and insecure partner-seeker, as would be, for example, "grow wings" or "double your income."
