Book Description
Sex and the City meets Dr. Phil
It was the breakup to end all breakups.
So, now you are a bittergirl.
Bittergirl? A bittergirl is sassy. A bittergirl is sexy. A bittergirl knows how to throw on an evening gown, strap on a fabulous pair of shoes, and tell a story like no one else. Whether you were dating for five months, living together for four years, or were married with three children, you can be a bittergirl, too. So, what's a bittergirl to do? Honey, blow that nose, wipe those tears, sit up in bed, and start reading. Bittergirl takes you from initiation into the bittergirl club, including warning signs, the shock of rejection, the seductive lure of “the moment of weakness,” and relationship apathy, through your first solo appearance, and on to the bittersweet moment when our bittergirl realizes, “Wow, I'm over him.”
Praise for Bittergirl
"Such a fun read, you'll almost want to get dumped. Okay, I said almost. Wise, wicked, and wonderful."
—Rebecca Field Jager, author of How to Make Love and Dinner at the Same Time
"We've all been there! When even our best friends are so sick and tired of us moaning about our ex that they are offering to pay for our therapy sessions! It may take you a while to get over HIM, but with the help of these sweet bittergirls, the rocky ride is a heck of a lot easier."
—Rebecca Eckler, National Post columnist
"I love the bittergirls! They practically make getting dumped fun. Okay, okay, they make it suck a whole lot less. They've been there, done that, and survived to walk you through, every martini of the way. Don't break up without them!"
—Josey Vogels, sex columnist and author of Bedside Manners: Sex Etiquette Made Easy

5.0 out of 5 stars
funny, smart, totally therapeutic, saved my life, Oct 15 2005
By Alex Watley "Wallex" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bittergirl: Getting over Getting Dumped (Mass Market Paperback)
I recently got dumped and fortunately found this book. Witty, very funny, smart and full of great excercises, this helped me glide through the first month of a very painful, humiliating break up...or at least appear to. I'm heading into the second month and can admit to myself that okay, it's still painful, and I still have some growing to do. But I know I'm well on my way to much better. This week I bought Greg Behrendt's It's a Break Up Because it's Broken, just to see to see if there was anything new. There a few things, but frankly Bittergirl is way funnier, intelligent and helpful. Buy this, browse Behrendt's in the bookstore...and you may actually enjoy your break up.

so much fun!, May 4 2009
By Christine Williams "twist 2000" - Published on Amazon.com
I was going thru a particularly hard breakup. If you would have told me that drinking castor oil would have gotten him out of my system-- I would have bought a case. So when I got this book I didnt expect much, but it actually made me guffaw out loud with laughter! It gave some great tidbits and made me smile. Will this tell you something that you might not already know? No. But it will lessen the sting and put a little swing in your step. good luck!

bitter bite, Dec 6 2005
By Dumped in Duluth - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bittergirl: Getting over Getting Dumped (Mass Market Paperback)
Just when I thought I'd never laugh again the bittergirls came to the rescue! The bittergirls made me laugh out loud, asked some great questions and made me think long and hard about this break-up. Best advice for me? Relationship Mythology - don't make him better than he was. He's a guy. Not a superhero. Thanks bittergirls.
Listmania!
