The New York Times bestselling classic of a young woman’s journey in work, love, and life
 
“In this swinging, funny, and tender study of contemporary relationships, Bank refutes once and for all the popular notions of neurotic thirtysomething women.” —Entertainment Weekly
 
“Truly poignant.” —Time
 
Generous-hearted and wickedly insightful, The Girls’ Guide to Hunting and Fishing maps the progress of Jane Rosenal as she sets out on a personal and spirited expedition through the perilous terrain of sex, love, relationships, and the treacherous waters of the workplace. Soon Jane is swept off her feet by an older man and into a Fitzgeraldesque whirl of cocktail parties, country houses, and rules that were made to be broken, but comes to realize that it’s a world where the stakes are much too high for comfort. With an unforgettable comic touch, Bank skillfully teases out universal issues, puts a clever new spin on the mating dance, and captures in perfect pitch what it’s like to come of age as a young woman.

I read this 25 years ago and wanted something to listen to that made me laugh. It was exactly what I needed.

I couldn’t relate with the insecurity of the main character at all. The book started lowering my energy as the chapters progressed. The funny and good parts which the book also has, were not enough to make it better. In the end I just decided to finish the book, in hopes of a strong ending given the many 5 stars it has received. The beauty is that there is a book for everyone - this one just wasn’t for me.
