How to Get a Life in Ten Dates
by Jenny L. Howe
If you are just as sick as I am of swiping on the dating apps, then this book is for you…
Plot: Haleigh Berkshire, a 25-year-old plus-size woman, is fed up with a never ending string of disappointing dates and is looking to take a break from dating. Instead she agrees to let her friends and family set her up with ten people in hopes of finding a plus-one for her sister’s engagement party. But where does her best friend Jack fit into the mix?!?
Haleigh was SUCH a relatable character from the start and I loved going on this journey with her. I’ve seen a few reviews saying they thought she was whiny, but as someone who has been in her shoes more times than I could count… she can do no wrong in my eyes. I wish I could share a bottle of wine with Haleigh and share stories of all of our wild and horrible dates together.
I also love that there was queer rep with both the FMC and side characters!
3.5 Stars - Overall, this was SUCH a cute book! I am not usually the biggest fan of friends to lovers or I probably would have rated it higher. And I won’t lie, there was something about Jack’s character that just kept bothering me, but overall all would still highly recommend it!
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review!
