I’ve been meaning to read something by Kristan Higgins for quite a while. I even have two of her books on my Vox that I haven’t read yet. I got this one from NetGalley so that put a bit of time limit on when I could read it. I’m so glad I read this because now I want to read all of her books. I wasn...

I have an actual headache from rolling my eyes. Why do all the women in these books reek of desperation? I don't know, maybe because I'm not looking, but do a lot of women act this desperately? This stupid? This annoyingly cliched? Might explain why no one ever invites me go hang with the girls. I...

I swore off Higgins since her heroines usually drive me bananas, but I was desperate during a long commute and downloaded this from the library (what did I ever do without Overdrive?). She actually deviated from the usual formula - had a SEP feel to it. Parker was surprisingly matter-of-fact and c...

Somebody to Love veers away from the typical Kristan Higgins path - which is both a good and a bad thing.

This is kind of awkward, I just realized that The Next Best Thing is the story of Ethan and Lucy. So technically I read the sequel first. I've done that quite a few times now. Now that I know that it will contain the same characters, I doubt I am going to read it. I develop certain attachments to ch...

3¾ StarsAfter reading The Catch of the Day which was underwhelming, I wasn't expecting all that much from this book. I was quite pleasantly surprised that Somebody to Love which follows on from Catch of the Day is really very good. Parker has lived a life of privilege. Money has never been a problem...

I enjoyed this book but there were parts of it that just annoyed me like the way the main character kept calling James "Thing One" and the author referred to Ethan as the "Paragon". Also the way the characters in the children's books that Parker wrote were always talking to her. I know there were ...

MY THOUGHTSLOVED ITParker and her son live off of her trust fund supplied by her father, but when her father is conivcted for insider trading, the funds dry up. She inherits a house from a distant aunt where at least she will have a roof over her head and her career as a children's author puts food...
