       columnist Stella Grey's heartrendingly honest, witty 
       memoir about her online odyssey to find real love in a 
       virtual world. <strong>"The literary equivalent of the 
       When Harry Met Sally line, 'tell me I'll never be out 
       there again'."--JoJo Moyes, #1 New York Times bestselling 
       author of Me Before You</strong> Singers may croon about 
       love being lovelier the second time around, but it can 
       also be far more complicated. When Stella Grey's husband 
       leaves her for another woman, she fears she'll be unhappy 
       and alone for the rest of her life. But daytime vodka-
       drinking and ice-cream are only short-term consolations. 
       Realizing that she needs to take her future into her own 
       hands, Stella dives into the world of online dating. What 
       follow are 693 days of hilarious, depressing, and baffling
       encounters that unfold both in person and online. Stella 
       quickly discovers that the more perfect a man appears on 
       her screen, the warier she should be. It's a game of 
       chance, with some players perfectly willing to lie to get 
       what they want, whether that's a lifetime of love or a 
       very brief encounter. Amid flirty emails, Skype chats, and
       awkward small talk over glasses of bad wine (which may or 
       may not lead to awkward sex), Stella struggles to remain 
       optimistic. To succeed, does she have to redefine the kind
       of man she's looking for--or change the kind of woman she 
       is? Funny, raw, and heartwarming, this book is a brutally 
       honest account of the world of online dating--a world 
       which so many of us are a part of, no matter our age--
       drawn from Stella's hugely popular Guardian column, "Mid-
       life Ex-Wife" (and expanded with new material) about her 
       search for a second chance at love.<strong></strong><
