Screw Everyone. Sleeping My Way To Monogomy (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
Not the light-hearted sexual romp I thought it would be, but interesting none the less. Eisenberg does have story-telling talent, a willingness to own up to her relationship shortcomings and is obviously sexually adventuresome. While I am intrigued by her extreme dating philosophy-she is proud of being will go out with anyone who asks her--it sometimes feels more akin to the weird fascination that makes you look at a train wreak than a template for how to live life.Interesting story that moves along, but wound up feeling glad it wasn't me who did all those things. Definitely an "R" but spends more time on the perils of modern relationships than explicit sex, if that's what you're after. Personal stories from a stand-up and NPR host about the pros and cons (mostly cons) about dating all types of men. A feminist who encourages going after the guy and sleeping with him as soon as possible. Eisenberg is a little bit of a whore, but she owns it and sticks by her principles. This book is honest, no-bullshit (with the exception of the pick up lines used by Eisenberg and her male friends), and it's funny.

It was a funny fast read. I think I enjoyed her more on the podcast but it was a decent story.
