I Was Blind (Dating), But Now I See

December 14, 2015
Rische, senior editor of nonfiction books at Tyndale House Publishers, brings a pithy eye to the pitfalls and perils of modern dating in this memoir-cum-instruction manual. After she reaches middle age and sees her friends settled into enduring relationships, Rische scolds herself for not being open to God’s plan. Little does she know that her friends have her back as well. Beginning with the stories of how eight different matchmakers forced her into the dating scene, Rische recounts in painful detail how these dates turned out, filling out each with observations and conclusions relating to her overall journey finding a match. Like most folks, Rische admits to wanting to rush into finding Mr. Right before God opened that particular door. Readers will delight in her candor, comic asides, and quirky dating rituals. Don’t grow cynical, she advises, but concentrate on yourself, and grow into the person your mate will one day thank you for becoming.
