Required reading for every person who is dating right now. * Beth Ashley *
Rachel is a brilliant writer and has revolutionised conversations around love and modern dating. * Shahed Ezaydi, Stylist *
An important feminist voice and a spectacular writer. This book will change how (and maybe even whether) we date. An extraordinary piece of work. * Sofie Hagen, author of ‘Happy Fat’ and ‘Will I Ever Have Sex Again?’ *
Rachel Thompson is the best sex and dating writer since Candace Bushnell. The Love Fix is a companion guide to navigating the highs and lows of modern dating. This book helps us understand why we are the way we are and why we feel things so deeply in the realm of love. This book will validate your experiences and emotions and help you feel less alone in the perilous dating scene. * Gigi Engle, author of ‘All The F*cking Mistakes’ *
We’ll never have all the answers or even all the questions we have about love fully explained, but it’s clear that the landscape of intimacy has changed and that we are simultaneously hyper-connected and disconnected. This book really unpacks and unpicks how these contextual shifts and adaptations have changed our social expectations when it comes to love, and has altered the course of how we meet, start and maintain loving connections. * Kate Moyle, Psychosexual Therapist and author of ‘The Science Of Sex’ *
Fascinating! So well-researched and insightful. I kept screenshotting pages to send to my friends - the highest form of praise. * Radhika Sanghani, author of ‘I Wish We Weren’t Related’ and ‘30 Things I Love About Myself’ *
It is very tempting to respond to modern dating culture with the harshness it hits us with - but Rachel sets us the challenge of radical sensitivity, not only to each other but to ourselves. A must-read for anyone who has forgotten that their greatest love story will not be with an imagined partner, but actually their own self. * Sophia Smith Galer, author of ‘Losing It’ *
Navigating the maze of modern love is challenging at the best of times, more so when you’re in your thirties and the pressure to partner up grows increasingly heavy. But knowledge is power and The Love Fix offers its reader both … Thompson provides her reader with a rich and timely analysis of today’s dating landscape, alongside the tools to help us all navigate it a little more fruitfully. This book will help you feel less alone and more supported in pursuit of whatever kind of love you may currently be after. * Emma Louise Boynton, host of ‘Sex Talks’ *
