My Very '90s Romance
by Jenny Colgan
Have you recently rewatched Friends and realized what an absolute horrible person Ross was? He was shallow, misogynistic, insecure, self-pitying, selfish, homophobic, controlling and enjoyed fat jokes at his sister's expense. Well, if that is what a 90s leading man was then I guess this book nails the 90s setting. What a time to be alive.
I borrowed this book having no history with the author and because I thought Addison was a woman (thank you Grey's Anatomy). I was expecting something quirky and subversive to help me through a 16 hour road trip. Technically it helped, I spent the entire time yelling at Holly, the protagonist, and that kept me awake. If you loved Ross you will probably love Holly - they are equally cruel and terrible. I wish I had read the reviews here first, you guys would have saved me.
