Funny Guy by Emma Barry
5.0
For those of you that loved Meghan Quinn’s “A Long Time Coming”, this is a must read. “Funny Guy” follows lifelong best friends Bree and Sam after Sam’s pop singer ex releases a song about him that hurts his ego and brings up some old feelings he has never worked through.
Bree has known that she’s loved Sam for a long time and thinks that it’s time for her to move on, quite literally, and looks at taking a job in another state. Sam is a star on the show Comedy Hour and also kind of a jerk to people in real life, everyone except Bree.
When Bree gets sick with a simple cold and Sam takes care of her, he starts questioning his feelings and realizes maybe he’s had more than friendly ones for her all along.
Full of humor, some soul bearing, and romance, this read was engaging and hard to put down. I rooted for Bree and Sam from the start. Sam’s character was the perfect mix of masculinity with a bit of ragged edges from his childhood. Bree’s character was strong but soft in all the ways we wish to be as women.
The second book I’ve read by this author, I loved this one and think I can handle 3rd person POV now. I will definitely be recommending this book for readers who like rom-coms and friends to lovers.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to Netgalley and Montlake for the approval.
