What readers say.
“I just have to say, your book is amazing!! Literally, any question I had or any thought I was thinking, you addressed it! Just reading the first chapter wowed me. Throughout my dating years I have made quite a bunch of lists; I kept rewriting them and finally dropped them all together and just went with my gut. There have been times that I was very confused. The dealbreaker list that I just made from your book however, infused me with clarity and confidence and I’m super excited to resume dating with this newfound clarity. Thank you so much!”

“Since I can remember, I was the girl that went to the video store to rent the newest romcom and re-watch them over and over again. My views on romantic love had been shaped by so many different narratives which have left me confused and hopeless… But “Marry a Mensch” I binge read! I just couldn’t put it down because it resonated and provided a blueprint that I so much have prayed for since being a young girl. Thank you, Mrs. Kigel! The endless wisdom, truth and insight will 100% change my life and many others, for sure.”
