{"product_id":"5150-kristen-mcguiness-9781593764135","title":"51\/50: The Magical Adventures of a Single Life","description":"51 dates. 50 weeks. That was the social experiment Kristen McGuiness--single, living in LA, and entering her thirties newly sober--embarked upon. McGuiness thought facing her struggle with alcoholism would be the hardest part, with love coming easily afterwards. It didn't. Rethinking her previous dating strategy, she embarks on the ultimate social experiment: 51 dates over the course of 50 weeks, and a chance to claim the life she thought was supposed to be hers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDodging CHAs (Cheesy Hollywood Actors) and men with self-diagnosed RAD (Relationship Anxiety Disorder), McGuiness is determined to find the \"perfect guy\" by being the \"perfect girl.\" But McGuiness, like all of us, has her own issues to contend with: a longing for the wrong kind of men, a penchant for swearing, and a difficult relationship with her father in maximum-security prison. But as the year progresses, McGuiness begins to develop a new hope for her future--the dates transform into truth-seeking missions, and point her toward a life with satisfying work, a supportive family and, with the help of a local shaman, a comforting spirituality. Told with wry humor, pathos, and an engaging lack of self-pity, \u003ci\u003e51\/50\u003c\/i\u003e is a moving adventure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kristen McGuiness\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1593764138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781593764135\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Catapult\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/24\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.96h x 6.08w x 0.85d","brand":"Kristen McGuiness","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44079822766335,"sku":"9781593764135","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_66832347-992c-4788-a173-24913fe97a24.jpg?v=1685483348","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/5150-kristen-mcguiness-9781593764135","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
