Publisher Description

For any woman who has ever bought a self-help book and wondered why she bothered. (P.S. Now that I know he's just not that into me, where do I go from there? Yeah, thanks for that advice.)

Jennifer Love Hewitt is a self-proclaimed "love-aholic" and hopeless romantic (her middle name is Love, after all!). She has been lucky and unlucky in love, and lived to tell about it—and she's done it all in the spotlight. Much has been written about her love life—some true, most made up to sell magazines. Now Hewitt shares the real story of what she's learned navigating the dangerous dating waters.

In The Day I Shot Cupid, Hewitt offers her hard-won wisdom and tells us how to embrace love with both feet on the ground. First, we have to shoot Cupid. We have to believe that happily-ever-after is hard work—it's not all flowers and symphonies and floating hearts.

Wise and wry and refreshingly honest, Hewitt talks about how to pick the right guy and how to know when to let the wrong ones go free, and she offers some surprising truths about the opposite sex.

From twenty things to do after a breakup, to ten things to do before a date, to the perils of text flirting (Note: You are waiting. By the phone. For his response.), Hewitt uses stories and dating secrets to illustrate the idiotic, romantic, crazy, depressing, hilarious, awkward, glorious moments we all experience in relationships. Funny, quirky, and empowering, The Day I Shot Cupid deserves a place on every woman's nightstand, bookshelf, or coffee table, or tucked inside her oversized designer handbag.

    " So, yes, I checked this out from the library after reading a somewhat snarky review. As a "normal" book, it is...quite bad. As the book you and friends take turns reading out loud over bourbon, it is amazing. I can't really evaluate it as a straight-up self-help book, but if you are looking for a very (very!) quick read of something funny, there's nothing better out there. "

    " OK I only read half through it and I do not like it why it is giving you all advise about love, I just think it is boring for her first book. I think she is better acting and singing than writing a book that is all I have to say. This book was my waste of money $24.00 dollars down the drain... "

    " I really liked this book although i feel there are other self-help / relationship books out there that are much better. But i just love Jennifer Love Hewitt and she has such a beautiful personality and i felt like i can relate to her with this book. It was like listening to advice from a friend, a lot of it is common sense but it was also helpful reminders that sometimes we tend to forget. She makes you remember about being happy for you first, and ways to go about it, also how to handle breakups, meeting someone new or dating in general. Very fast and fun read. I liked it. "

    " It was ok. I just wished I'd had alot more JLH in it. Her advice, which is not new, would be more relatable and realistic if based on her love life. Quick read. OK. "

  • Overall Performance: 2 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 5

    " Bought this because I needed some night-time before bed fluff...and out of sheer curiosity given JLH's public love life. I thought it was good, not great. But actually better than a lot of the super self-help-y dating books out there. "

    " I saw this at the library and couldn't resist. It read like a blog, was very entertaining (often unintentionally), and included a workout designed by JLH's trainer that I copied and am actually going to try to do! It probably took me less than an hour to read, too, so there's nothing to feel bad about. :) "

    " I actually read/heard this book as an audio book, I found it rather funny than advising. The good thing was that JLH was the one who narrated the book. Its a great laugh to me and a good something to read while u have nothing to do. I guess she gives 'good' advice but women aren't all alike so yea.. But good for her because she made a lot of money "

    " I wish I could give this negative stars. I got this as a gift and thought it would be funny. It wasn't, it was lame and was a lot different than I expected. It was not a comedy, it was a self-help book on finding true love. "

    " I bought this book on the clearance rack at Wal-mart and I'm glad I didn't spend a lot of money on it. It was worth the few dollars I spent on it. It was a fun-loving kind of book, but it just wasn't really what I was expecting it to be. It was a short book, and a fast read. "
