Swipe Therapy

By Mira Sumanti

What do you do when your fiancé steals your money and flees the country five weeks before your wedding?

If you're Mira Sumanti—a pragmatic romantic and high-achieving Google marketing executive who’d rather analyze than catch a vibe—you throw a wedding cancellation party, download Tinder and set off on an unexpected journey of heartbreak, healing and hilariously chaotic rebound romance.

In Swipe Therapy, her candid and witty debut memoir, Mira chronicles her path from devastation to self-discovery as she swipes her way through potential suitors. Via romantic escapades, tongue-in-cheek DIY charts that make romance a soft science and steamy encounters—with a neuroscientist, an Italian film director and a psychedelic-loving porn star—her adventures offer both laughter and unexpected wisdom for women navigating breakups of their own.

Additional Information

Whether in Tokyo bondage bars or on remote Indonesian beaches, Mira finds hilarity in the analysis of all her dating misadventures. In the process, she realizes what it takes to start over and learns to open up again in order to heal her heartbreak.

An Eat Pray Love for the dating apps generation, Swipe Therapy is equal parts breakup book and story of self-discovery. Mira’s international journey of healing proves that sometimes the best therapy comes from taking chances—one swipe at a time.
