It's rare to find a book that kind of perfectly captures your sense of humor, but man, this one did it. Kerry Winfrey is definitely one of my new favorite authors.
This book was a lot, a lot, a lot of fun. If you're the kind of person who doesn't like pop-culture references in books, you should pass on this one, because there's a lot. But I think the title kind of gives that away anyway. In any case, Annie and Chloe were hilarious, Drew was really sweet, Uncle Don and the DnD group and Nick and Gary and honestly 99% of the characters in this one were so endearing and had me cackling every time they showed up. It got kind of ridiculous plot-wise at the end, but for being a book all about rom-coms, I feel like that's par for the course. This is definitely a book I'll read again, and an author I'll be reading more of!
