Love isn't a mystery. It's just an engineering problem waiting for a patch.

Avery Kemp is an architect who believes in structural integrity, load-bearing walls, and the absolute predictability of physics. So when his romantic life collapses, he doesn't just grieve-he initiates a system audit.

Treating his dating life like a corrupted hard drive, Avery launches The Debug Log. Every date is a feasibility study. Every conversation is data. Every rejection is merely a variable to be optimized. He filters out the Catfish, the Over-Sharers, and the Visual Matches with ruthless, algorithmic efficiency, searching for a partner who meets his zero-defect specifications.

But when a statistically perfect 98% match-ghosts him without a trace, Avery's operating system crashes.

Spiralizing into a burnout fueled by swipe sprints and clinical detachment, Avery is forced to confront the one variable he never accounted for: the messy, un-optimized chaos of a real human connection.

Dating as a Debug Log* is a sharp, darkly funny, and deeply moving exploration of modern loneliness, asking the ultimate question: In a world optimized for efficiency, is there any room left for the happy accident of falling in love?

Perfect for fans of *The Rosie Project*, *Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine*, and anyone who has ever wanted to delete their dating apps forever.
