The Between Boyfriends Book is an honest, hilarious look at the world of dating--and not dating--that will have fans rushing back for multiple copies to press on the psychic wounds of their afflicted friends. Chupack not only puts voice to the cheerful brutality that shapes young women's love lives, but creates bonus coinages to describe instantly recognizable dating tropes, such as:* "sexual sorbet": the first person you sleep with after a breakup to remove the taste of a bad relationship* "lone rangered": to have had a relationship end with no goodbye, no answers, just the vague feelings you have no idea who that man was* "premature 'we'jaculation": a common dating dysfunction where one member of the couple starts using "we" before the other is ready.The Between Boyfriends Book is an honest, hilarious look at the world of dating--and not dating--that will have fans rushing back for multiple copies to press on the psychic wounds of their afflicted friends.
