Book Blurb

Navigate the Dating Rapids Without Drowning in Drama

If dating feels like a contact sport with emotional bruises, awkward silences, and more red flags than a communist parade, Flow is part survival guide and part outspoken friend telling you what you need – not want – to hear.

Flow does not sugarcoat your romantic misadventures but hands you a flashlight to illuminate the dark woods of your dating forays where digital detrivores, out to drain your finances and squeeze every last drop of goodness from your emotions, lurk.

You’ll emerge laughing — lighter and wiser. Forget self-help – this demolition derby of romantic delusions, part manifesto, part survival guide, detonates everything you thought you knew about love with:

Red Flag Radar: Learn to dodge emotional landmines before they detonate. Is Conman Don slithering into your DMs? Narcissist Nick? Complex Carl? You’ll ghost them harder than a bad Wi-Fi connection in the Sahara.
Confidence Alchemy: Transform from relationship doormat to Water Queen, flowing around obstacles with grace and sovereignty.
Emotional antibodies: Turn romantic setbacks into rocket fuel when you learn to see rejection as intel rather than fatal.

Caroline Hurry introduces a cast of romantic archetypes so spot-on you’ll send screenshots to your therapist.

Whether exploring first-date minefields, surviving breakup tsunamis, or trying to decode the mysterious language of long-term commitment, Flow is your hilarious straight-shooting guide — no GPS required.

Cutting through the chaos with humor, hard-won wisdom, and zero tolerance for self-sabotage, this empowering lifeline can help you create lasting, fulfilling connections minus the usual self-help fluff and fortune-cookie wisdom.

KATHERINE BLACK REVIEW

This is a razor-sharp exploration of the world of modern dating with a light-hearted focus on wit. It’s an irreverent take that distils the chaos and cuts through the rubbish to segment it into digestible observations. And it’s strictly a man-free zone unless you blokey-blokes really want to get inside your woman’s head. This book, while being full-on girl-power, is great. It looks at dating pitfalls and segments our hook-ups and long-term relationships into archetypal personalities—we know these men. We do. They are relatable, uncomfortable, and unfortunately horribly accurate. Using humour, the book empowers women to control their romantic lives. It’s full of wisdom and sage advice.

I like that the eBook version has clickable links to navigate the sections.

The unapologetic tone and focus on practical advice give it depth. It isn’t just a romp and gives us valid tips in every chapter. It makes readers evaluate their self-worth to sidestep toxic relationships and tackles serious topics head-on. However, on the flip side, it’s light and leaves readers laughing as they gain confidence. From first-date heartbreak to the complexities of long-term commitment, this book empowers.

Perfect for post-break-up reading.

‘’My dating days are over. When I was asked to review Flow, I hesitated.
And when I ‘looked inside,’ I was hit by fireworks. Matisse-like verbal sketches… portraits…caricatures… oh the pen-womanship!
Caroline Hurry is a virtuoso in the art of juggling words, worthy of the Cirque du Soleil.
The collection of flawed men is priceless. It is a self-help book and as such offers pearls of wisdom, some of which I am still mulling over. I picked this one out. ’There is a hidden presence on this earth, a parasite that regards you as its ressource. It will continue to try and subsume you until you stand up, reclaim your sovereignty, and say no.’
Great stuff! It was a privilege to review it.”
