I'm Free, But It'll Cost You: Single Life According to Kim Coles

I loved this book! It reminds us that being single is not a disease we should avoid at all costs! But sometimes it should be cherished, and that the behavior is normal afterall.

Kim Coles and her adventures in dating had a lot of highlights and actually had me wondering if these guys existed. From the time that she sneaked to see a guy, to her high-school mishaps and college meltdowns, from her marriage and divorce to dating Mr. Right and Mr. Right Now, Kim is very frank about her experiences and is not trying to scare people, but get them to look past the rose-colored glasses people tend to look thru in order to see what they want to see. As for the men, she left behind some pearls of wisdom that would help us to locate and relate to the woman of our dreams, instead of just feeding on the fantasy. Sure, she's not an expert on the subject of dating, but she had enough to say to put it on paper, and she said it very well. Funny and thought provoking, a fine piece of work.

I WOULD LIKE TO DISAGREE WITH THE KIRKUS REVIEWS, APRIL 15,1997. MS KIM COLES YOU ARE FUNNY.... NOT THAT ANYTHING IS WRONG WITH THAT! Bobbie

This book was the funniest book of the year. True it did point out some serious issues, and at the same time revealed the humor in them. Kim, you go girl!

I'm Free But It'll Cost You is great for anyone who is a woman, has loved (or hated)a woman, has been loved (or hated) by a woman, or would just like to understand how women think. Kim Coles did not try to speak for every woman in the world but everyone could definitely relate to her. After reading this book, I felt like I had just met a new friend. She kept me thinking while keeping me laughing.
