Kick Him to the Curb and Keep on Smilin’!: Humorous True Stories and Insightful Self-Help Advice About Ending Dysfunctional Rel

Wildly candid and outrageously funny, Kick Him to the Curb and Keep On Smilin' by Dorothy Pratt is unlike any other self-help book. It is smart, savvy-and it will have women around the world cheering, laughing and commiserating. Written for any woman who has survived or is currently withstanding an unhealthy relationship, this guide is a fascinating memoir of one woman who has been in the trenches for nearly a quarter of a century. In fifty chapters, she dissects the battle between the sexes as only a survivor can. With chapters like "The Get Over It Motel" and "Becoming Your Own Best Friend," she creates a space that women can learn from their mistakes-and hers. These are true tales. Tales of men who wanted to make her a broodmare, men who drank too much; one was a missionary and a few who were rednecks, men who seemed just fine and changed along the way. Readers should take notes and be prepared to laugh out loud-and laugh until they cry. For when it comes to men-buyers beware
