Drew in Blue by J.M. Kelley

4.0

I enjoyed this so much more than I was expecting to. To begin with, I have no aspirations to be a mother...and usually books heavily involving children just don't do it for me (which begs the question, why did I purchase this one right?). But the book was just wonderfully written...it was more real. I don't even really know what most of the characters look like, and I didn't get the impression that Drew was this uber hottie, just an average guy. And boy, was he ever man-like in his personality sometimes....it was really refreshing. And how he dealt with Nick was just priceless and realistic. The friendship between Drew and Kris was fantastic...not perfect, but just real. Even the stuff involving the baby weren't all cutesie, but more realistic...it made the moments Drew described the snuggles hit my heart in a way that most books with children just don't... So yeah, real is basically the thing that stood out most for me. And funny. My brain feels like it's not writing good anymore, so I shall stop now....
