A funny, frank dating memoir and companion workbook for women tired of auditioning for love — now in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle from independent publisher Wizard Press.
CHICAGO - illiNews -- Wizard Press has published "Done With the B.S.: How to Stop Chasing Validation and Start Dating Like You're the Prize," the debut memoir by Sara Richard, now available on Amazon in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle editions.
The book opens at rock bottom: 3 a.m., a bathroom floor, mascara everywhere, and a woman sobbing over a man she had known for two months. It took Richard fifteen years of modern dating — and a parade of men she now refers to only by nickname — to spot the con at the center of it all. Her conclusion became the book's one-sentence thesis: you are not the product on the dating market. You're the customer.
"Done With the B.S." is not another list of rules about playing it cool or texting back in exactly forty-seven minutes. It is a memoir with a spine and a toolkit — funny, frank, and unflinchingly honest about why smart women keep auditioning for love instead of choosing it. Across eight chapters, Richard shows readers how to tell chemistry apart from a familiar wound, read the body-level red flags their brains talk them out of, quit the texting games nobody wins, and build the kind of love that lasts.

The book is two books in one: the memoir, plus a companion workbook of more than forty exercises that turn every lesson into practice — from a seven-day "Swipe Detox" to red-flag field checks and worth-rebuilding scripts.
"I wrote the book I wish someone had handed me at 3 a.m. on that bathroom floor," said Richard. "Women don't need another set of texting rules. They need someone to say the true thing out loud: you were never the product begging to get picked. You're the customer — and the prize."
Written for readers of Mark Manson and Jen Sincero, "Done With the B.S." delivers practical self-worth tools like your funniest friend three glasses of wine deep, not a clinician.
"Done With the B.S." is available now on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H7F7G637
