RRRJessica recently blogged claiming that Kristin Higgins writes women's fiction, not romance. I see her point. All I Ever Wanted sounds like it's somewhat closer to traditional romance than Higgin's other books, but it still spends a good deal of time on the heroine's family, career and relationshi...

You know what Kristan Higgins does really well? The charming, smart, popular girl next door. She created a likeable leading lady in Callie Gray. Higgins is really funny with her sly humour. Quite enjoyed that. The only reason I didn't give this book four stars was because it felt way too similar ...

The humor in this story really made up for the lack of romance. I laughed out loud throughout the entire book. I love the quick and snappy thoughts that popped up in Callie's head. Mark was a real prick and I never got the complete understanding of her worship for him. I wish the author would have f...

LOVED ITThis is my first book by Kristin Higgins and it won't be my last. I really enjoyed getting to know Callie and at times I wanted to yell at her like you yell at the screen during a horror movie, "Don't Go There!" or "You Better Watch Out!" but this is a story of Callie finding herself and o...

I had a hard time cracking the spine on "All I Ever Wanted", I was just not in the mood for an "unrequited love, doesn't realize what she has" plot line. With that resistance in mind, I thought I'd at least read the first chapter before bed last night, just to get it started. Massive mistake. At ...

....And she's back.After a disappointing recent outing with [b:The Next Best Thing|8273304|The Next Best Thing|Kristan Higgins|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51M1VnmpSvL._SL75_.jpg|6965083] KH has come back with a book that is strongly reminiscent of her earlier and much better (much funnier)...

Kristan Higgins never fails to amaze me. She is so great at capturing both humor and emotion. Some parts of the book are laugh-out-loud funny, and others make you feel like crying. In fact, I did cry once. I read the book in one sitting, and between all the laughing and crying, anyone that heard me ...

The first Kristan Higgins book I ever read was Too Good To Be True and the moment I read the last word, I knew that Higgins would become one of my favorite contemporary romance authors. In All I Ever Wanted Higgins takes us for a wild ride while we follow Callie and her search for the perfect ever a...
