The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing by Melissa Bank

2.0

I expected more out of this book from reviews. I liked both the story and the main character in the beginning, but as the book went on, Jane grew frustrating to read about. Her reliance on her older boyfriend to further her career seemed out of character with the younger version of herself that was presented to the readers in other chapters. The storyline about her switching career paths would have been more interesting if it related to her happiness at the end - but Jane's happy ending was only resolved by a guy, so the outcome of her career transition was left hanging. Overall, I felt Jane didn't have that much depth or growth as a character, so it was hard to stay interested and made the ending unsatisfying. Also, two of the short stories did not wind up tying into the book at all. I am not sure what the point of them was as many other reviewers also seemed confused. 2/2
