Smothered by Autumn Chiklis
2.0

I received an e-copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Smothered is intended to be a light, humorous read that follows Lou Hansen in the days after her graduation from Columbia. While I enjoyed the diary style entries and the humor, this book wasn't really a winner for me. The characters are mostly unlikeable and the storyline is relatively far-fetched. Lou herself is a pretty unrealistic character - she is a double major at the top of her class at Columbia, but somehow has no idea what she wants in a career and manages to go months without applying to any jobs. I would recommend this for a beach read, but then again, there are tons of other great beach reads out there.
