THE BACHELOR CHRONICLES
Ron Geraci
Kensington Publishing
June 2006

Trade Paperback
Nonfiction

 

This Dating Life” columnist Ron Geraci has spent the last four years writing articles about his adventures and misadventures in dating. In order to pound out his columns, he dated whomever he could and some dates were good and others not so good. Some of the women he encountered include a lesbian, therapists, and an expensive matchmaker. THE BACHELOR CHRONICLES is a raw, tell-all look at his escapades.  

This is a book to be read with a good deal of open-mindedness and humour. The reader will not be able to help feeling sorry for Mr. Geraci in some of his less than successful dating experiences. Some relationships lasted longer than others, but all of them are highly entertaining. This reviewer went into THE BACHELOR CHRONICLES expecting something different, perhaps a chronological tale of one date after another, but that is not the case and there is much more to this book that just that. This reviewer enjoyed the honesty in the male perspectives on what to expect during the dating rituals. And after reading many of Mr. Geraci’s misadventures in dating, this reviewer is very happy to be safely married! Women will enjoy the insight into the male psyche and a glimpse into what a man expects and wants in the first several months of a relationship. Men just might cringe at the fact that Mr. Geraci has put to paper their very own thoughts and feelings. While not what this reviewer expected and after a few hard to get into pages, THE BACHELOR CHRONICLES has something for everyone. Sit back and relax, but try not to get sucked into the madness that has made up Mr. Geraci’s dating life!
