Adult Assembly Required by Abbi Waxman

5.0

What I read: Adult Assembly Required by Abbi Waxman

Why I picked it up: I like this author! And am now just one book shy from being a completist.

How I read it: On paper.

What it’s about: Laura decides to take a leap and move west even though her family thinks it’s the worst idea she’s ever had. Her apartment goes up in flames and before her life can too, Polly tells her there’s an open room in the house where she rents. This changes everything for Laura, and Bob, and everyone else too.

What I liked: I love the perspective Abbi writes from. I think it’s 3rd person omniscient, but I can’t quite remember what all of the possibilities are called. You know everything about everyone without losing the idea of a central character, in this case, Laura.

What I disliked: It ends too early.

Genre: Finding oneself, chaste romance, closed door.

Rating & Recommendation: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and definitely! It’s the second in a delightful series that’s worth reading in order but not necessary to be read in order.
