Not just your opinion.

Her full title though... Turning Heartbreak into Happily Never After". That makes no sense to me. Turning something negative into something negative?

Since she claimed Josh was the love of her life and when they broke up she said she felt it was her biggest failure, the way I understand the title is she lost the love of her life and as a result lost a piece of herself and will never be the same again.   I don't know how else to explain that title. Is she implying She will never be that vulnerable to experience that kind of love again because she is afraid to have her heart broken in exactly the same manner? :Nod:

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to mean that her relationship to Josh was supposed to be "ever after", but now it's "never after", yet she's still happy. It just sounds like she'll never be happy again.

So did the title change? Did it not have something to do with "OK" in the title?

The full title is:

It's Not Ok: Turning Heartbreak into happily Never After

Ohhhhh. Lol, you've been very helpful to me this morning!

The title is so negative. It should have been "Turning Heartbreak into Happily Every After" which puts a positive spin on it with helpful hints on how to be happy even if you were heartbroken. The title sort of says forget being happy, it's not going to happen.

I think she was thinking of happily never after because she's happily single and people tend to think of happily ever after as they found the one. But yes it's a horrible title.

Plus the title makes no sense: Its not ok: Turning heartbreak into happily never after?
To me all she did is take her catchall phrase from one season and smash it into her take on the next for a catchy title.

Yikes that title is a mess.

Of course heartbreak ends in happily NEVER after. That's why it's called heartbreak. It makes zero sense that Andi is claiming she turned heartbreak into an inevitable result. How did this girl get a law degree?

I doubt she was responsible for the title, though. I think authors come up with preliminary ideas, but the marketing department probably has final say.

I doubt she wrote the book herself either. Still, it's a mess, imo.
