Marry that girl7/3/2023 ![]() ![]() Then Jack’s boss gives him and opportunity. The night they meet they share an amazing kiss, exchange numbers, yet still they resist. Jack and Hannah meet one night at a bar, there is instant chemistry, but neither of them are looking for a relationship. This was just a Playful light hearted story Full of sass, Snark, steam, and four letter words. The book put a bit of a twist on it, this time it is the guy that is trying to lose the girl and it is the girl trying to prove that she can be in a relationship. Christopher has written a fun retelling of one of my all-time favorite movies How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. Thanks to Berkley romance for an advanced copy!Īndie J. I’m so sad I didn’t end up enjoying this because I had such HIGH HOPES going in, but this is one of the worst of the year for me. I’m gonna stop reading this and watch the movie instead because I can’t deal with this anymore ![]() I should’ve DNF’ed this after the first chapter This isn’t just a How To Lose a Guy In 10 Days retelling, it feels like a rip off because it’s way to on the nose, except for the fact that the movie is way better and these characters are obnoxious. They both feel guilty about hurting the other one and their thoughts are so repetitive, they keep saying the same shit like: “she’s so great, too bad I have to break her heart” or “he’s the perfect man, too bad I am using him for a promotion” over and over and OVER again This is a lot more vulgar than I expected it to be with the cute illustrated cover, it’s kind of like Fix Her Up in that way Why is he calling her Duchess? □ he’s called her that four times now and it’s not cute Why does she keep using the phrase “panties magically disappearing all over town” or something of that sort whenever she describes how attractive he is? □ it’s so cheesy Why are they using words like bozos? And friggin’? I haven’t heard those words since middle school haha They try to have this “witty banter” but I lost track of how many times I rolled my eyes Both of these characters are annoying as shit How many times did they bring up his dick in the first two chapters? He calls her a “sexy rabid raccoon”? What the fuck?□ She’s using him for a promotion, he’s using her because he wants to write about politics but first his boss assigns him: how to lose a girl, it’s a little too on the nose for a retelling with the genders reversed The writing is terrible, it reads sooo juvenile and immature and reminds me of The Proposal by Jasmine Guillory but even worse? ![]() Here are my non-spoilery thoughts I had while reading this book: But this book is just bad and the only thing about this story that I liked is that Hannah is biracial, I appreciate that representation and I think books need more of it, but that’s about it. And I am so SAD, because this was one of my most anticipated romances of the year because I LOVE How To Lose a Guy In 10 Days. I wanted to DNF this after the first chapter, that’s how bad it was.
