This book offers a well-rounded approach to life as a single woman (which I happen to be) as opposed to books dealing merely with dating and marriage. Sure, there are a few chapters regarding aspects of dating, but this book delves into so much more such as renting vs. buying a home, managing finances, taking care of your health, and going for your dreams, to name a few. The authors creatively weave spiritual insight, practical advice and applicable stories together to guide the single independent woman in all aspects of her life.

You can pick and choose what you like from this book. Some of the advice ranges from "look good to attract a man" (as opposed to "look good because it makes YOU feel good")to practical budgetary advice. I found myself shocked at some of the 1950's style advice, but enlightened by some of the stories told. The advice seems overall pretty basic...not necessarily aimed at a single woman who has been out in the world awhile.

This title is deceptive. It's not "Latte for one and loving it" - it's more like "Latte for one while you find a man". The first four chapters deal with dating. The tone of the book is that you're not complete with a man, that getting married is the ultimate goal, and that this book will help until you achieve that goal. But if you're single and want to be happy being single, this book will be depressing.
