MysteryDates(R), with wit and wordplay, delivers hundreds of ideas on keeping the sizzle in your relationship
You'll surely relish this page-turner if:
- You want to discover new places to go - locally, nationally, globally.
- You want anecdotes that can make you smile while feeding you tips and information.
- You want to regain the sparks that first sparked between you and your partner.
- You want a book you clearly can read either in small chunks or at once.
- You want a long list of items that might perk up your romance, intimacy, or sex life.
- You want to read something new from the author of three other volumes you've liked.
- You want to insert more fun into your life.
MysteryDates is aimed at readers who believe they can mine gold from Woody Weingarten's eclectic experiences and immense research.
That faith will be rewarded. This prize-winning writer/editor has crafted and played with words for more than 65 years. He's worked for dailies and weeklies on both coasts, co-written a musical revue with his wife, led a support group for men, and served on local and regional commissions. He's the author of The Roving I, a collection of 70 of his favorite self-written columns; Rollercoaster: How a man can survive his partner's breast cancer, and, with his granddaughter, a kids' fantasy, Grampy and His Fairyzona Playmates.
Be jubilant! This guide can help you:
- Discover you can plan dates that range from having hot dogs and Slurpees at 7-11 to spending $5.2 million for a hot air balloon expedition.
- Locate where you can find freebies, twofers, rentals, and swaps.
- Spot the Mystery Spot where water runs upwards, and people apparently can walk up walls.
- Concoct home dates that involve picnics on your patio, surprise parties, or a TV binge-athon.
- Track down the world's biggest food fight.
- Check out where the super-rich live.
- Smile at the Woody Weingarten Institute of Made-Up Statistics.
- Ferret out where you can witness camel races or the Summer Redneck Games.
- Pinpoint how you can improve your mental wellness while doing a MysteryDate.
- Sniff out where you can find the best deep-dish pizza.
- Determine whether you want to road-test a new companion.
Readers have raved. One pithily calls MysteryDates very amusing while a second endorses it because it provides so many great ideas for creating a lifetime of special memories. A third notes that the book's content leaps from something simple - taking out the time to watch a sunset in your own backyard garden - to boarding a plane to Hawaii to visit a volcano. Two others label the book a delight [that uses] the concepts of creativity, spontaneity, and trust and as much a travelogue as a guide to dates. One more beta-reader writes that it's a fun fast-read and self-help guide to better understanding your significant other. Others, meanwhile, insist that its suggestions go from quirky to elegant, free to big bucks, the options abound and offer a fascinating variety of practical tips for keeping older relationships flexible, high on life, and fun.
Find out for yourself why so many maintain you can delight in virtually every word. The book - a quick read that can be savored in one satisfying sitting or one chapter at a time - is available now.
Like other Woody Weingarten books, once you've dipped into it, you can put it down, of course, but you most likely will choose not to.
