Thank You for Ruining My Birthday

Wendy Ploger

Plucked straight from my personal diaries and photo library, Thank You for Ruining My Birthday portrays the rejection, loneliness, and uncertainty of dating in NYC after the sudden end of a long-term relationship. This book shares universal and timeless observations, from the cruel to the comical, that so many of us have felt in the modern pursuit of love. It is a cathartic and sometimes ridiculous story, diving into questions of identity and reinvention, revealing that the ride is more fun when we embrace our curiosity, sexuality, and the messiness of life.
