Alien in the Family by Gini Koch
4.0
Read this book in public and got major side eye for laughing out loud to myself. Seriously, there's some gems in this one. Koch keeps up the nonstop action, romance, and banter up in Alien in the Family, which takes place 6 months after the events of Alien Tango as Kitty and Jeff try to plan their wedding with dealing with intergalactic plots and family drama.
I really don't understand why she'd pick Martini, but I guess you win some, you lose some. And I'm really losing here because I can't figure it out other than the instalove peddled in book one (especially because CHUCKIE. WHY NOT CHOOSE CHUCKIE?). Despite that complaint I love this series and I have no intent to ever stop reading these books. I love the interplay between the characters and I can't wait to see what shenanigans they get into next!
4/5 stars.
“You know, things you did and do to make sure you and Mom have such a great marriage?”
“Oh! I gave that advice to Jeff already. Applies to him more than you.”
“Share with my anyway.”
Dad shrugged. “I told him that he just needed to remember three things. First, he doesn’t run your life, and after today, he won’t run his life, either. Second, in any argument, there is your wife’s side and then there is enemy camp; never choose enemy camp in an attempt to be reasonable, because it never works. And, third, to remember that a happy wife is a happy life.”
