I laughed, I also gasped in pain So, obviously, this is a book I ll have to reread some day as I was very much both in the mood for the book but not physically capable of reading the book mmphs.Robin Alexander books are always a safe bet if one wants to have an hilarious and hysterically funny reading As always, this book is no exception and manages to reach the levels of healthy madness expected at least by me It is curious to see how the younger characters are increasingly eccentric in each new book, something that was previously reserved for the older ones In any case, it is a very entertaining eccentricity, whether on the part of the young or not so young Also as usual, the sto Robin Alexander books are always a safe bet if one wants to have an hilarious and hysterically funny

but I didn t enjoy the romance as much It started up too fast, almost as a foregone conclusion They re both lesbians and single so they get together and it works out I like me somebuildup which is pretty much nonexistent here.That cover though It s taunting me Why did she stretch the image to fit the cover Argh At this point, the covers must be an intentional joke Surely she can afford a proper

normal and I liked that a lot Nothing super angsty and dramatic, no big obstacle in the relationship, nothing but stupid funny stuff and family interactions The MCs do start dating pretty fast, but

will be populated by zany and interesting characters One of the things I always love about Alexander s novels is the way she crafts such unique people And it s not just her main characters, but each

Blaze hasn t always had the easiest time in the dating pool and she s not the most liked person in her community after a few failed social engagements When she rescues new to town, Caleigh after a flat tyre, it s obvious they have a deep attraction As they get to know one another, they can t seem to get enough of each other and they fall fast but fall deep When you look up soul mates in the dictionary it should have a picture of these two They have the same interests and the same warped sense of humour.This was a lovely story with little relationship build up which actually suited the mood I was in when I started reading it I love the comedy that Robin writes into her books and at times it s almost a slapstick show.Blaze and Caleigh are fantastic and the story itself of them falling in love is just adorable but there is a second story running alongside them about Caleigh s mum, who has just came back to town after apparently abandoning...This book has zero angst and that was perfect for me Just like Temporary Girl, I read it while on vacation, and it was a wonderful way to escape from the world for a few hours There is conflict, just not a lot of it Full review
