Synopsis

Taylor Burke's laugh-out-loud, real-life account of online dating in Alaska offers a refreshing and raucous look at using dating apps in your 30s. Men and women will cringe and cry of laughter at the relatable horrors inside.

Taking inspiration from an old Alaskan saying, "The odds are good, but the goods are odd," author-reporter Taylor takes readers on a winding journey of real Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble profiles she's encountered in her quest to find love.

Broken into three parts, Taylor covers how:

  • "Your words are getting you no action." From hilarious to downright rude, readers will revel in the awful bios Taylor has come across while swiping right (or in this case, swiping left. Like, a lot).
  • She's at a complete loss in some instances. Filled with colorful language, part two of her book, "WHAT THE F&%$ AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS?" chronicles bios, DMs, and more of conversation enders, confusing limericks, and sub-par language capabilities.
  • Many of the issues brought up on Tinder would be better suited for therapy. Surprisingly revealing bios lead to Alaskan men airing their grievances about past relationships, promising they're "looking for friends, I swear!" and including downright off-putting information.

Perfect as a coffee table staple and book to gift to your single friends, The Goods Are Odd promises a droll commentary on the comical, disturbing, and Wild West-esque landscape of online dating in your 30s.
