“In this no-nonsense guide to personal fulfillment…she denounces the false expectations engendered by popular music, films, fairy tales, and even Viagra commercials that depict an unachievable romantic ideal…Goldberg’s views on sex in and outside of relationships, particularly for older people, are progressive, sensitive, and spot on. In between chapters, a running column called ‘Ask Whoopi’ deals with specific relationship queries posed to the author over social media…This is a funny, conversational, and occasionally profane take on modern romance from a legendary humorist.”

Quotes
-
“The advice is so refreshing and seems to be based on Goldberg’s desire to be completely honest with wide-eyed lovers who don’t know a thing about marriage and are being fed the same bulls**t advice over and over again—only for nearly half of them to fail at the endeavor.”
— Root magazine -
“Goldberg…suggests ideas on interpersonal bonds that she wishes someone had suggested to her years ago…Her manner is frank and mostly funny, and Goldberg rarely holds back…Goldberg’s writing will appeal to women the most, but her counsel is geared toward both genders, all races, and all sexual orientations…The author is honest and usually spot on.”
— Kirkus Reviews -
“As narrator, there’s no better voice than Goldberg’s to deliver this material—her raspy timbre, energetic pace, and jovial, bemused tone are all her own. At times, it sounds like she’s ad libbing or providing commentary beyond the actual text, and she regularly laughs out loud throughout her narration. These qualities give the listener the sense of having a personal interaction with the sharp-eyed advice maven. What’s more, her personal anecdotes will have listeners in stitches.”
