1,001 Things You MUST do Before You Get Married is the essential checklist that fun loving single girls and 'Bachelorettes' should complete before they settle down and enter the ranks of the 'smug marrieds'.

This must-have guide covers all the important issues - sex, relationships, travel experiences, friendships, fashion, beauty, embarrassing moments, drinking, party exesses, jokes, books to read, films to watch - and, where relevant, the entry is accompanied with further information and contact details.

Journal Entry 6 by Loeweneckerchen from Böblingen, Baden-Württemberg Germany on Saturday, November 27, 2004

Thanks for this bookring, let's see what my score will be - and I'm really glad this book did arrive at all because one side of the envelope was completely ripped open! (though as I've found out after pming with Luz-de-Luna it was not her fault, the post office used another envelope as was requested)

05/08
Well, I still have a long way to go: my score is 307.
Loved this book, I think it will become one of my favourite gifts for engaged girlfriends ... :-)

Looks like a fun read :)

Edit 18th May:
Read it. Laughed a lot. I didn't count my score, but it turns out I've done a lot, but that there's a still a lot to do :)

The book has safely arrived, thank you Sobergirl. I must read an other ring book before this. 

Journal Entry 10 by chrisim from Tampere, Pirkanmaa Finland on Monday, July 04, 2005

This was a quick read but I had other ring books before this. Sorry to keep the next readers waiting. My score was 335. Easy read and a not too much girlish :)

Edit 9th Sept. I have contacted all three next readers, and several times, but no answers!

Edit 11th Sept. The fourth next reader contacted me very fast, thank you jenndiggy! Finally the ring can continue its journey.

I have sent the book to the US by surface mail, patience please!

Just returned from vacation and this book was waiting on me. Can't wait to start reading it.

Okay, it's Oct 3, and I finished this book last night. I'm waiting on the address of the next person to send it along.

Cut book, but I didn't understand a little because of the British English used.

My score was only 232.

Mailed Oct 6. USPS delivery confirmation:

Silly and cute. I think my male friends have enjoyed it far more than I have. Note to future readers: the checkmarks next to various numbers are not mine . I'll be sending this on to the next person in the bookring this week. 

Journal Entry 14 by sweetpea0678 from Saint Petersburg, Florida USA on Sunday, November 06, 2005
