Such a lovely read! :)I didn't quite like it as much as the others, but it was still a lovely book.

My Rating: 2.0 I'll be honest, I didn't really like the Just One of the Guys. It was supposed to be a contemporary romance book written by Kristan Higgins, a very well known author, but Just One of the Guys lacked major romance to satisfy me. Which is also why I skimmed more than fifty percent of th...

Though some of the antics are positively slapsticky, this was actually really depressing. I normally don't have a problem with first person, but this seemed almost designed to torture readers...and the h. And, let's be honest, there really wasn't a romance at all, 'til the HEA.

Her forays into the world of femininity were hilarious and also sort of touching. She takes initiative to im...

I enjoyed Higgins humorous writing. If it wasn't for that, I'd have stopped reading. Here's my problem with the book: 80% of it was spent on heroine's family members' various relationships & heroine's relationship with another guy. Higgins did well in making me care about the heroine & Hero's relati...

3.5 stars (wish goodreads would fix that already)All in all, I enjoyed this book. I read a lot of reviews that talked about their personal distaste for the author's choice of writing in first person/present, but I wasn't bothered by it at all. There are some stories that need to be told like that,...

I've read a few of Kristan Higgins' books now, and this one has been my favorite so far. The writing was so well done! I became so involved in the story and the character's lives, and I ached every time Trevor and Chas were in scenes together. There was heart break in the novel, and it made me so sa...
