first dates are created equal and that every initial encounter has the
possibility to become something long-lasting and wonderful.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Loved this! It is lighthearted and honest. These stories are universal as well
and will definitely resonate with people who are putting themselves out there
and finding the courage to go back into the dating pool again after dates and
situations that haven’t worked out.
Michelle,
5-stars on Amazon
Super fun read! I started this book and could not put it down. Wonderfully
written and every chapter is a new adventure. Loved this book and highly
recommend.
Lollis,
5-stars on Amazon
First Date Stories gives the caliber of experiences that one hopes for when
selecting a book . . . I absolutely loved this book and wholly appreciate the
contributions that Jodi weaves into a fantastic anthology. Really well
done. Read Full Review      
Reader’s Favorite,
5-star review
Readers will likely come to this book for the intriguing stories, but they’ll
stay for the supportive common sense that the author dispenses, and they’ll
appreciate her compassionate tone throughout. A sensible, readable, and, above
all, forgiving overview of modern dating. Read Full Review
Kirkus Reviews

First Date Stories had me laughing from the start. I felt like I was actually on
each date. If you are single, this book, full of advice and warning signs, is
for you. It’s intelligent, humorous, thought-provoking—the perfect companion.
Corie Adjmi,
author of Life and Other Shortcomings
This collection of hopeful, relatable, funny, and admittedly eye roll-inducing
stories wonderfully captures what it’s like to date in midlife, with savvy
advice that will make dating easier for readers. A must-read for all single
women who are considering getting out there or are back out there.
Erika Ettin,
author of Love at First Site: Tips and Tales for Online Dating Success from a
Modern-Day Matchmaker 
Such an enjoyable book! While many “seasoned daters” can get frustrated with the
process of finding a partner, Jodi Klein masterfully points out how each date
provides us with valuable knowledge about ourselves and gets us one step closer
to finding enduring love.
Marisa T. Cohen,
author of From First Kiss to Forever: A Scientific Approach to Love
From the moment I started reading First Date Stories, I was sucked in. I could
totally relate to these stories and it was so much fun to live vicariously
through them.
Alexandra,
5-stars on Amazon
In First Date Stories, Jodi Klein shows that there are no bad first dates, only
great lessons those looking for love can take with them on their next first
date — hopefully making it their last.
Melanie Notkin,
author of OTHERHOOD: Modern Women Finding a New Kind of Happiness
Loved this! It is lighthearted and honest. These stories are universal as well
and will definitely resonate with people who are putting themselves out there
and finding the courage to go back into the dating pool again after dates and
situations that haven’t worked out.
