Product description
A funny and affirming illustrated guide, in New Yorker cartoonist Sarah Akinterinwa's signature style, that offers a unique approach to finding love (or not).
This illustrated dating guide by cartoonist Sarah Akinterinwa, rooted in her experiences as a Black woman in her late twenties, encourages readers to be introspective, honest, and practical in their love lives. Through vignettes with scenes from modern dating, the book's main character walks the reader through the ins and outs of being single, defining what you want in a partner, navigating dating apps, the value of therapy, contending with family expectations, and remaining optimistic about finding a relationship that's right for you.
The book includes cheeky illustrated sidebars and commentary, such as:
- A recipe for the perfect partner
- Updated love languages
- Dating affirmations you didn't know you needed
- Advice for taking yourself on solo dates
- And more, all with an inclusive perspective on race, sexuality, and body image
The stories, practices, and tips in this guide offer support for the lovelorn millennial, and anyone wading through the challenges of dating and being single in today's world, leaving the reader with the recognition that there might not necessarily be "one" perfect partner or way to be in a relationship, but rather, many possibilities—in dating and in life.

Let customers speak for us
A beautiful, thick paper notebook. Lovely to write in.
Gave this to my note writing husband....loved it. Excellent service and quality.
Excuse the pun, it was a present and well received by the recipient. Caran D’ache pens are lovely to use and this one was admired by the recipient on a visit to the Brighton store. Excellent service.
Papersmiths is a gem- beautiful pens, gorgeous packaging and the sweetest personal touches. They even included a handwritten thank you card with our order. I also needed to cancel something i bought by mistake and they sorted it immediately - super attentive, quick and on it! Such a lovely experience from start to finish!
Nice flowing fineline pens, good colour.
I bought the notebooks as gifts so didn’t want to disturb the nice wrapping to look at them properly but I wanted to write a review as a compliment to the excellent service that I received. Thank you.
Literally the best notebooks in the world… getting really difficult to find stock in the UK of the ruled. Fabulous thick paper, durable covers. Ringbinding means you can flip and use both sides of paper.
I love its whimsy
New stationery is a thing of joy and the lovely packaging and note took it up a level. I bought the wrong size notebook band as I was so taken by the colour that I did not read the sizing properly. I asked if I could return it and it was all dealt with so efficiently and politely. All round happy and itching to buy more.
lovely presentation, easy to understand and get into and a brilliant exercise to make everyday a bit brighter!
I've been using The Completist planners for years. I love how flexible they are with their binding. The paper quality is top. They use G F Smith paper which is my favourite. Usually i get the undated versions from them but i loved this colour and couldn't help myself! Love it.
Just received this diary. It’s an instant hit. So chic and such a great layout. It’s now part of my evening routine taking time to reflect on the day. Love!
Absolutely love these pens. Feel lovely to hold and write beautifully. Great selection of colours.
Great quality paper, gorgeous shade of orchid pink and no plastic delivery. Very happy. Thank you
Quality to do list notebook, with lovely thick paper. Papersmiths always package it up so nicely as well. Even a small notebook purchase feels like high end luxury.
