Not everything always goes as you plan, as Annette Fix will explain
in "The Break Up Diet", a memoir after her life when her
pro-golfer boyfriend dumped her. Describing the title concept as the
diet one goes on to make one more appealing to the shallow end of the
dating pool, "The Break Up Diet" is Annette's story of
her working as an exotic dancer to bankroll her writing career and to
support her preteen son, a story many single mothers will surely relate
to as she balances her dreams and the hassles of being a mother.
"The Break-Up Diet" is highly recommended for memoir shelves
and for any women in need of an uplifting tale of someone in a
predicament not so different from their own.
