About Burn the Haystack

If you've ever asked yourself "Am I overthinking it?" or "Should I just give him a chance?"—the answer is no. Hell no.

Jennie Young's engaging system empowers you to sort through profiles quickly and effectively, preserving both time and sanity. With its blend of scathing humor and academic rigor, Burn the Haystack is so much more than a dating tool. It gives you the skills to break down communication from the classroom to the boardroom and everywhere in between, and the confidence to approach life with a deeper, more powerful level of understanding.

This book is for you if you're tired of

  • Second-guessing your gut when a profile feels off

  • Wasting energy on people who show you exactly who they are (and you ignore it)

  • The emotional whiplash of dating apps designed to keep you swiping, not connecting

  • Feeling "too picky" for wanting someone who can meet your actual needs
