Critical Praise

"This is a daring and wise book. Gottlieb tells it like it is: In our modern world of excess, too many of us have unrealistic expectations about men and love, and even more unrealistic views of ourselves. Women (and men) should take Gottlieb’s message to heart: ‘Look for reasons to say yes.’ It could change your life."

—Helen Fisher, Ph.D., Rutgers University and author of Why Him? Why Her?

"Finally, here’s a cautionary tale for anyone wondering why she hasn’t found Mr. Right --- with a hopeful message about the Mr. Right Nows, the Mr. Close Enoughs, and even the Mr. What the F*#%s."

—Jill Soloway, writer and executive producer for Six Feet Under

"Engaging, hilarious, brutally honest, and eye-opening! Marry Him is an encouraging story about finding love by getting real."

—Rachel Greenlaw, New York Times bestselling author of Find a Husband After 35

"What Lori Gottlieb is saying isn’t subversive --- it’s smart. A thoroughly entertaining reality check, it will make single women laugh and squirm, and married people appreciate their spouses even more."

—Diablo Cody, Academy Award-Winning Screenwriter of Juno
