The Fill-In Boyfriend by Kasie West

4.0

This book kept me smiling the whole time and made me not care about any possible flaws. The plot was something that we see a lot in media. The “I need someone to pretend to be my date, and then fall in love” cliche. But it was still refreshing and very enjoyable to read.

I felt as if most of the problems I had with this book were some of the characters. I liked Gia, she was the typical student council president girl, who had trouble opening up to people. I thought her development was quite good and felt realistic. I loved Fill-In Bradley! He was this cute, imperfect dorky guy, who I loved more and more as the story continued, and learned more of his personality. But Gia’s friends did bother me. Not just at the end, they bothered me throughout the whole book. I can’t really explain why the bugged me, but the did for some reason. I guess i just didn’t like the way the treated Gia sometimes.

Overall I really enjoyed reading this,I read it in one sitting, and had a smile on my face while reading it. Although the ending did leave too many problems unsolved. I would suggest this book if you love cute, goofy contemporary type books.
