The Epic Love Story of Doug and Stephen is a comedic journey of a ...ummm.... Intelligence-challenged model and a brainiac writer, who slowly transition from a love-hate (as in, one loves, one hates) relationship to a love-love romance. It is written in a very down-to-earth voice that makes the read...

Odd, quirky, but cute. Humor fell flat for me at first, but quickly just let myself enjoy the weirdness of this little tale and laughed aloud a little at Doug's plain idiotic but strangely endearing behavior. Did not really understand the need for all those flashbacks of his one night stands with wo...

This one was not as funny as I had hoped it would be and I really struggled through the first bit when Stephen was still being "evil." I found the second half an improvement once we started to see a bit more to Stephen's personality.

My review in one word: Hilarious! So there's the plot. Doug works at a gay magazine. Doug decides that he is gay for Stephen. Doug sets out to get Stephen.

I've been side-eyeing this book for a while, because stories where there is a significant intelligence imbalance in a relationship have the potential to squick me out big time.

It's not my usual fare, I get nervous when characters are described as "simple-minded", but Doug (the idiot) is so charmingly stupid and big-hearted that I'd f...

Not sure about this one. A lot of people wrote that they found it extremely funny. Not sure, if I just didn't get some jokes (not a native speaker) or it might be just not my kind of humour.There were some good dialogues, but overall I found it a little boring and the love story was strange, too. Bo...

I must thank MandyM for this one. This story is one enjoyable journey. Doug and Stephen are a case of opposite attract. I love how endearing and determined Doug is, when he decides that the grouchy Stephen is the love of his life. Doug is not really smart. He's a male model, he can't write to save h...
