This timely book assembles a chorus of sophisticated, edgy, and humorous voices on the topic of being unmarried in one’s prime. Far from being out to pasture, these writers zestily take on the challenges and enjoy the rewards of growing older as a single woman: sex (or not), occasional loneliness, single motherhood, second careers, menopause, critter comforts, and more. Joyce Maynard (“fifteen years divorced and pushing fifty with a short stick”) tries online dating, Kathi Kamen Goldmark embraces her newly empty nest, Susan Griffin savors the joys of solo travel, Wendy Merrill dumps a younger lover to save her self-esteem, Diane Mapes prefers the joys of aunthood over motherhood, Ms. Gonick dates a sexy (if uneducated) cowboy, and Rachel Toor finally finds the perfect companion — and he has four legs.

Men are so quick to tell us that if a woman reaches a certain age and isn't married that she is the problem, not them. I am here to heavily debate that theory. You're about to embark upon a true misadventure about one normal woman's savage search for a soulmate. It is me. I am "one normal woman." These unbelievable dating experiences have thoroughly convinced me that this man either doesn't exist or is stuck in a tree somewhere. This ideal man is not missing front teeth. He is someone I can take out in public who understands that "The Chicken Joint" doesn't fall into the category of "fine dining." His breath doesn't make my eyes water and he knows how to use dental floss. These twisted, dysfunctional tales about my quest for love are chronicled as told to my life-long friends, quirky colleagues, and erratic family - though you'll come to realize that many of those relationships are equally as disturbed as my dating experiences. While taking this comical stroll down memory lane, I fall over a cliff reliving the details of these outrageously unlikely dating scenarios and sensual slip-ups, along with my lively but borderline psychotic living situation.

"In this watershed book, E. Kay Trimberger tackles one of the largest social phenomena of our times: the increasing number of single women over thirty-five. Drawing on the diverse personal stories of long-term single women, including herself, Trimberger explodes the idea that fulfillment comes only through finding a soul mate. Instead, she presents an exciting new identity possible for women in the twenty-first century: the new single woman. The new single woman rejects the cultural pressure to couple and unabashedly lives a fulfilling single life, one where she is not on her own, not defined primarily by self-reliance but by her skills at creating friendships and her ability to link networks of friends into a community. Trimberger's analysis opens up new alternatives for the "good life" and speaks to the anxieties of single women in their twenties and early thirties."--BOOK JACKET.

Back on the Shelf is the hilarious diary of a year in the life of Jacquie Whittaker, 'a menopausal library assistant, divorcee, mother of three, living in an empty nest in Napier'. The diary, 'not for anyone else's eyes and cheaper than therapy', begins with her desperate foray on to the dating scene where she meets a number of equally desperate and rather unsuitable men. In addition to struggling with wrinkles, push-up bras and turning 50, she is torn between her need to find an eligible new man and the needs of her dementia-stricken mother, her bossy sister, her pregnant daughter and last and certainly least, her ex-husband. But, by the end of the year an invitation to join an all-woman safari to Tanzania and her rather strange fascination with hippos lead to an unexpected romance. Could this be the real thing?

* NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOKS OF 2016 SELECTION * BEST BOOKS OF 2016 SELECTION BY THE BOSTON GLOBE * ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY * NPR * CHICAGO PUBLIC LIBRARY * The New York Times bestselling investigation into the sexual, economic, and emotional lives of women is “an informative and thought-provoking book for anyone—not just the single ladies—who want to gain a greater understanding of this pivotal moment in the history of the United States” (The New York Times Book Review). In 2009, award-winning journalist Rebecca Traister started All the Single Ladies about the twenty-first century phenomenon of the American single woman. It was the year the proportion of American women who were married dropped below fifty percent; and the median age of first marriages, which had remained between twenty and twenty-two years old for nearly a century (1890–1980), had risen dramatically to twenty-seven. But over the course of her vast research and more than a hundred interviews with academics and social scientists and prominent single women, Traister discovered a startling truth: the phenomenon of the single woman in America is not a new one. And historically, when women were given options beyond early heterosexual marriage, the results were massive social change—temperance, abolition, secondary education, and more. Today, only twenty percent of Americans are married by age twenty-nine, compared to nearly sixty percent in 1960. “An informative and thought-provoking book for anyone—not just single ladies” (The New York Times Book Review), All the Single Ladies is a remarkable portrait of contemporary American life and how we got here, through the lens of the unmarried American woman. Covering class, race, sexual orientation, and filled with vivid anecdotes from fascinating contemporary and historical figures, “we’re better off reading Rebecca Traister on women, politics, and America than pretty much anyone else” (The Boston Globe).

Marriage. It’s the obvious path for every girl in India. It’s supposed to define us, shape us and give meaning to our life. But does it, really? Figures show that nearly 74.1 million women in India are either divorced, separated, widowed or have never been married. And the number is on the rise. In what promises to be a path-breaking work on female identity, Sreemoyee Piu Kundu, a proud-to-be-single woman herself, spills the beans on what it is like being over 30 and unattached in India, through her own compelling story and the chequered lives and journeys of nearly 3,000 urban single Indian women from all walks of life. Women, whether single by choice or circumstance, are under scathing societal pressure, invasive scrutiny and pervasive criticism. Be it the difficulty in renting an apartment, being character-assassinated by your gynaecologist, or being slut- shamed as having slept your way to the top, even when you’re successful professionally, a single woman’s life choices are the easiest to dissect. From one of the most powerful voices in contemporary Indian writing, comes a passionate narrative of grit and gumption, anger and loneliness and the daily struggle of being single in a country where the highest validation of your gender remains marriage and motherhood. Fiercely honest and painfully vulnerable, Status Single is a book that every woman and man—single or otherwise—must read.

So many women believe that their happiness is tied to being in a relationship. I used to be one of those women and I felt like a complete failure each time a relationship ended and I found myself being single... again! The failure to find happiness on our own is deeply-rooted. We're thought from childhood that we need a husband and a family. Women that don't achieve those two and women that aren't interested in being married are often perceived as unhappy and certainly unsuccessful. These numerous expectations burden girls heavily. They search for the ideal relationship, jumping from partner to partner and hoping each time that it would last forever. Some are so afraid of being single that they'd agree to just about any partner in order to avoid the loneliness and the social stigma (yes, it's real - especially past a certain age). The aim of this book is to teach ladies how to find excitement and joy in being single. A single woman can travel, she can date numerous fun men, she can go wild and invest in the relationships she has with herself, her family and her friends. If you're a single girl who's experiencing doubt, this book is the right one for you. It will show you that being on your own is fun and it can lead to increased self-awareness and better understanding about what you want from a relationship.

One of Bustle's Best Books of May A feminist anthology inspired by legendary Cosmopolitan editor Helen Gurley Brown’s Sex and the Single Girl, featuring twenty-four new essays on the triumphs and heartbreaks of modern singlehood from acclaimed and bestselling authors, including Kristen Arnett, Morgan Parker, Evette Dionne, and Melissa Febos. Sixty years ago, Helen Gurley Brown's Sex and the Single Girl sent shockwaves through the United States, selling more than two million copies in three weeks. Helen’s message was radical for its time: marriage wasn’t essential for women to lead rich, fulfilling lives. Now, in these critical, wry, and expansive essays, twenty-four writers reconsider Helen’s advice and how it applies to their own paths, fielding topics that she couldn’t—or wouldn’t—conceive of in 1962: contraception and abortion (an omission demanded by her publisher), queer and trans womanhood, polyamory, celibacy, interracial dating, bodies of all kinds, consent, sex work, IVF, and the pop culture that both saves and fails us. Eliza Smith and Haley Swanson’s revisionist anthology honors Brown’s irreverent spirit while also validating our modern experiences of singlehood, encouraging us all to reclaim joy where it’s so often been denied.
