CL>new york> allnyc> wanted> love/life/job Help! Single gal seeks normal guy for movie dates & make out sessions

Before there was Tinder and Match, there was Craigslist.

Native New Yorker Kelly Brixi knows everything about big city living. She's got a semi-decent job and an affordable pad. On paper, her life almost looks put together. Ask her about finding love in NYC…well, she'll tell you that's a different story.

She’s searched high and low, yet in a city of eight million, landing a decent date has proven downright difficult. Then Craigslist comes to town, and Kelly’s whole life changes in a nanosecond.

Welcome to the world wide web! From missed connections to personals ads, online dating is the wave of the future and Kelly jumps straight into action. But the deeper she dives into the digital world Kelly is swept into a series of misadventures  by the City’s shallowest gene pool. From guys who wear doughnut medallions to Nigerian princes, Kelly's hunt has her looking for love in all the wrong places.

Can her search results deliver the guy, the gig and the digs? Or will the scammers and pervvy internet trolls make her pull the plug too quickly?

"I spent some time this summer with my phone glued to my hand, swiping through Kelly's adventures in the city--from awful real estate scams to bad dates to run-ins with creepy pet owners and the mob--while Masson had me laughing so hard that strangers would give me side eye. (Case in point: I challenge you to read the whole "Free Bedbug Mattress Giveaway" listing silently). 

What still stands out for me about this book, even a few weeks after I've initially read it, is how deliciously unpredictable each story was. Yes, Kelly is smart and brave and, (un) fortunately, like a siren-call for the weird. But she doesn't always make the obvious decisions. She goes with the flow; she dishes it out; she is a kaleidoscope of New York City living..."
