today's shout out goes to
It's Evie Summers's job to find out. Because if she can't convince her film agency's biggest client, Ezra Chester, to write the romantic-comedy screenplay he owes producers, her career will be over. The catch? He thinks rom-coms are unrealistic--and he'll only put pen to paper if Evie shows him that it's possible to meet a man in real life the way it happens on the big screen.
Cynical Evie might not believe in happily ever after, but she'll do what it takes to save the job that's been her lifeline . . . even if it means reenacting iconic rom-com scenes in public. Spilling orange juice on a cute stranger? No problem. Leaving her number in books all over London to see who calls? Done. With a little help from her well-meaning friends--and Ben and Anette, the adorable father-daughter duo who keep witnessing her humiliations--Evie is determined to prove she can meet a man the way Sally met Harry. But can a workaholic who's given up on love find a meet-cute of her very own?
i was lucky enough to read an ARC of this title and it's one of my favorite books of the year
i don't think any book has caused me to laugh this much - seriously- with the exception of a few chapters (maybe) i laughed in every one
this book - pure magic
although written in 1st POV - Evie's - i still felt that i got a really good sense of the other major characters- and one nearly outshines Evie
as i read the book, i kept hoping the ending didn't disappoint me... because really, i hate it when that happens- but the ending was just about perfect
i can't wait for ms winter's next book (hopefully it's not a long time)
