This Won't End Well by Camille Pagán
3.0
This Won't End Well is light and cute. Sometimes that's all you're looking for. The main character, Annie, tells the story through journal entries (although they read like a book just told in a first person narrative, complete with quotes and actual conversations). Annie has been wrongfully fired from her job (forced to resign) and her fiance has just decided to go to Paris for a month without giving her any advance notice. He also told her not to contact him during this time.
Annie, living with her mother, decides she's done with new people, which of course means new people come into her life. Harper, her new neighbor, could become... a friend? And Mo... well he's someone that takes her to a place that has the best Mexican food and the worst margaritas.
The story follows Annie and how she decides to proceed with Jon (her fiance), Harper and Mo. It's cute, it's light and it's funny. Annie is younger than characters I've read about in Pagan's other works (she's in her mid-to-late 20's) but it doesn't detract from the story.
