One of the things she advised that I do was read Lady in Waiting by Jackie Kendall and Debby Jones. We had a really great conversation and she gave me lots of helpful advice. The feeling of being single in a place that has an incredibly strong dating culture was overwhelming me. It isn’t incredibly rare to be a freshman at Calvin College and not have a significant other, but it is more common to be in a relationship than to be single. She is older than me so I thought it would be helpful to have a conversation with someone who is single in a different stage of life. I met with a mentor of mine my freshman year of college to talk about singleness. Out of 10 chapters, disliking the first 4 seems like a pretty high number for someone who ended up finishing the book and is now writing a POSITIVE review on it. I will start this blog post right out of the gate with honesty: I did not like this book for the first 4 chapters.
