A review by readhikerepeat
All You Could Ask For by Mike Greenberg

4.0

From The Book Wheel:

Note: I received this book as part of TLC Book Tours in exchange for an honest review.

Sometimes a book comes along at exactly the right moment and for me this was it. I’ve been so bogged down with heavy reading for school that this was all I could have asked for (cheesy pun intended). Light writing combined with a balance of seriousness and hilarity, Mike Greenberg’s novel is sure to be a hit.

I must say that I was surprised at how well the author wrote about women.  Especially because this particular author is a man who works for ESPN – not exactly a breeding ground for womanly insights. And yet, Greenberg succeeds. Both insightful and honest, each of the three main characters is completely three-dimensional and approachable. I wanted to know each of these women even when I didn’t agree with them. While there are a lot of male writers who can successfully write about women, not many write about women told through the point of view of women, and this is what sets Greenberg apart and launching him into the category of men who “get it.”
