Product Description
For any woman who has ever bought a self-help book and wondered why she bothered. (P.S. Now that I know he's just not that into me, where do I go from there? Yeah, thanks for that advice.) Jennifer Love Hewitt is a self-proclaimed "love-aholic" and hopeless romantic (her middle name is Love, after all!). She has been lucky and unlucky in love, and lived to tell--and she's done it all in the spotlight. Much has been written about her love life--some true, most made up to sell magazines. Now Hewitt shares the real story of what she's learned navigating the dangerous dating waters. In The Day I Shot Cupid, Hewitt offers her hard-won wisdom and tells us how to embrace love with both feet on the ground. First, we have to shoot Cupid. We have to believe that happily-ever-after is hard work--it's not all flowers and symphonies and floating hearts. Wise and wry and refreshingly honest, Hewitt talks about how to pick the right guy and how to know when to let the wrong ones go free, and she offers some surprising truths about the opposite sex. From twenty things to do after a breakup, to ten things to do before a date, to the perils of text flirting (Note: You are waiting. By the phone. For his response.), Hewitt uses stories and dating secrets to illustrate the idiotic, romantic, crazy, depressing, hilarious, awkward, glorious moments we all experience in relationships. Funny, quirky, and empowering, The Day I Shot Cupid deserves a place on every woman's nightstand, bookshelf, or coffee table, or tucked inside her oversized designer handbag.

 Stupid cupid. March 25, 2010

Jennifer Love Hewitt knows a thing or two about love and relationships and she's not afraid to share it. I thoroughly enjoyed this read and thought her tips--espcially on waiting on him to call--were right on. I guess the whole idea is to get over the idea of cupid--waiting for him to shoot you with his arrow. But, as well, it's about becoming more empowered in your thinking and in the way you act. Overall, this is a good read for all women. I am so glad I read it!!! Also liked: Man Magnet: How to Be the Best Woman You Can Be in Order to Get the Best Man-A Guide To Dating (Revised Edition).

I am a big fan of Jennifer Love, ever since I was watching her as a pre-teen, and now as an adult with Ghost Whisperer. As soon as I found out she was coming out with a book, I pre-ordered it. It could have been about her sleeping patterns and I would still have eaten it all up! This book was so cute, I read it in 2 days. It gave me a good insight on what she went through after her break up with her fiancee. I def. know what its like after a big break up like that, and it helped me get closer to her. Love it and HER!

Many times we look at celebrities as having it all. Jennifer's book shows that no matter how pretty or famous you are, there are still insecurities to deal with and romantic heartache. What's missing in most dating how-to books is the brutal honesty of the author and Jennifer reveals so much about herself that makes you just want to give her a huge hug. The book will speak to more of a younger audience but I still liked it. A light, easy read for the beach this summer. As a fellow dating expert/author, I read other dating books for market research (I met my true love four years ago). I just had to support Jennifer for her bravery in putting this out there. I know how scary it can be to let people inside your private world but that allows us see that we all deal with same issues. Hopefully women will stop competing with each other for men and tearing each other down and come together to lift us all up. Jennifer, your true love is coming and he will be SO into you. Love, Debra Let Love In: Open Your Heart and Mind to Attract Your Ideal Partner
Better than what I expected April 30, 2010

This was quite surprising with a lot of one liner'd advice. It was written very well and I laughed out loud almost every other chapter.
She didn't get too personal and start trash talking like other celebs do.
A definate reread.

This was absolutely a very cute book! Also, a must-read for any woman who has been in a relationship (even if they are currently in one). Jennifer Love Hewitt uses her personal experiences from her MANY publicized relationships with men to shed a little light on all the intricacies of dating, all the good stuff and bad stuff, and even the 'Why didn't I think of that?' stuff in relationships. This does not mean that JLH is telling you "HOW IT IS" and that there is no other way, she is just giving her own little perspective.
In the end this book is meant to make you feel better about your past relationships, even if they went horribly wrong, because everyone goes through them. There is even a part where she lets a man speak for himself (Jammie Kennedy - even though they were no longer together when this book came out). One of the important things to take from this book is that everyone is different, including men. Also, we are not alone. Plain and simple. Throughout her advice and perspective, JLH also provides little tips that she found successful, while stating that these might not work for everyone.
I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun, quick, heartfelt read with no lies written in the pages.
