a cute, fun listen.

I like the silly situations that Lindsay Kelk tends to get her characters into. She's one of the first authors I usually Google when I'm looking for a new book. I actually really enjoyed the main character's, Ros' friends. I think I would be fun to do a spin-off of them. They are the group of friends that you always wish that you had- consistent, fun, supportive, always showing up exactly when needed.
the story itself was okay, nothing super exciting or page turning. Of course you root for the main character, and thankfully Lindsay's main characters are never totally stupid like other chic lit characters tend to be where you're frustrated by their actions.
I thought her having feelings for another man but still sleeping with another was a bit bothersome. I just don't understand how some people can be so promiscuous, but that's just me and my high moral ground. I think it's worth a listen if you're just cleaning out your closet, like I was, and want something to entertain you.

Fun story from an author I have been binging

I have listened to “one in a million” and “on a night like this” prior to “in case you missed it”. I preferred those two to this one, but I still liked it and will keep my binge going. I like how the love interests in all of these novels have been interesting and sort of straight forward. I was listening to another author before this and she would write the characters to be so perfect for each other but make it take forever for them to admit it… and for some reason I didn’t like it. I like the themes of friendship and self evaluation.

fun listen

I enjoyed this story. It was predictable, but I was okay with that. The characters were likable and funny. I was looking for something light and fun, and this fit the bill. I will look for the author and narrator again.

Great story

It took a little longer to get interesting cut but overall a good story. Really likes the characters.

Good rebound book

This is one of those books you read to get over reading a truly terrible book. It’s wholly predictable, but a cute story with no stress. The characters are fun, although Roz seems to be a thinly-veiled attempt to recapture Bridget Jones. One character whose name is pronounced like “Sue Me” is - no kidding - a lawyer, so expect some silliness. There’s also a scene in which a couple breaks into a private garden that seems nearly lifted from Notting Hill. So, don’t expect a lot of originality, and you’ll have a pleasant read of this one.
