Critique Of Books Falling for Me: How I Hung Curtains, Learned to Cook, Traveled to Seville, and Fell in Love

After meeting a married man who she connects with but can't have, Anna David decides to shake up her life via advice from famed pioneering Cosmopolitan editor Helen Gurley Brown, following as much of her retro advice as she can. Much of Brown's advice seems truly dated, but David manages apply it to very modern phenomenon like online dating. Any woman who's participated in online dating and experienced the hell that is the wishy-washy dater (or really any kind) will appreciate her adventures

You know that problem you find in many memoirs- the one that says I have a great story but I don't know how to write? Well I can tell you for sure that's not the case in Anna David's well-written take on changing one's life. A funny, quirky fast read that focuses on Anna's recovery from a romance involving a married man. Down in the dumps and questioning life, Anna stumbles upon Helen Gurley Brown's, Sex and the Single Girl and decides to follow its step-by-step process of transforming her life.

The book is okay but dull. Anna David finds a book written in the 1960s - Sex and the Single Girl - after a failed emotional relationship with a married man. She decides to pattern her life after the book, hoping that it will lead her to Mr. Right. Along the way, she takes some risks and learns some stuff. Yeah, really, it's that cliche.I never connected with Anna; she seemed rather self-absorbed and superficial, and sometimes over-the-top. As I read the book, I just wanted to shake some sense

This mash-up of Eat, Pray, Love and Julie and Julia is a light fun read that kept me interested. Anna is a freelancer, living in New York and she has her heart broken by an unavailable married man. For whatever reason, she turns to Sex and the Single Girl for help and decides to live her life the Helen Gurly Brown way. The next year is full of taking chances, making dates, learning to cook and decorate and a unplanned trip to Spain. The end point is somewhat predictable by the title, but the

This book, what can I say? It started off nicely, before I realized how neurotic Anna is and instantly became annoyed and impatient.Seems to me she doesn't/didn't want to help herself and like so many others, just sat around wallowing in her sad self-pity hoping someone of the opposite sex would take her out of it. Pathetic.Though she gets help from her therapist (who dispenses some fine, insightful advice we could all use) and though she does decide on her own to try new things despite her

Every book Anna writes I am more impressed with her skills as a writer and her ability to connect with the audience of whom she writes for. Falling for Me, was an incredibly well written book, as Anna's journey to self improvement and self understanding, leads her through many interesting experiences. It takes a courage to write a Memoir like this that is so raw. Anna leads us through her journey from tears to laughter, from her darkest times to her triumps. This book is about decisions, both

...I think the problem was I just didn't like the person, so caring about her story was really hard. I didn't find she had any redeeming qualities. How she got a book deal is beyond me.
