Single Shouldn't Suck: Let Go of Finding "The One" & Love The Life in Front of You

What if searching for the one is getting in the way of your journey of self-discovery? What if singlehood wasn't just a stepping stone to marriage?

As a single twenty-something in search of answers to these questions, author and entrepreneur Esther Marie leans into self-discovery and finds a life of boundless adventure. Living in the tension of uncertainty about the future, Esther chronicles eight years of her life including awkward dating stories, solo travels, deconstructed beliefs, refueled faith, a near-death encounter with a bear, and way too many camping trips. In the end, she makes peace with the mystery of unanswerable questions and finds herself in a story far bigger than she could have ever imagined.

Thought-provoking, hilarious, and relatable, Single Shouldn't Suck offers a different perspective on singleness than your pastor who met his wife in high school. Esther invites you on a journey to liberating contentment by encouraging you to indulge in the life in front of you and let go of trying to control your story's ending. You don't need to wait for the one to start pursuing your purpose. You don't need to waste your Friday nights feeling alone. Throw tradition to the wind, ditch the cheesy clichés, and start loving the life in front of you because being single shouldn't suck!

Single Shouldn't Suck is an invitation into an adventure of bold bravery that encourages
singles to break free from the constraints of societal pressures and write your own wild and
wonderful story. - Lisa Bevere, NYT Bestselling Author
