Why I Love Singlehood

A wonderful bright and easy chick lit read. I completely consumed this book in two sittings each by the pool! The book centers around a women in her early thirties who owns a coffee shop in a small college town. Within her coffee shop are regular customers who had some spice to the story, each of them have their own plotline that adds to the overall story. Eva is stuck in a relationship rut when she finds out that her ex is now engaged.

With three men vying for her attention, it was pure joy to read and try to guess who she may end up with. Sadly, I was wrong, but that made it even more fun and a lot less predictable. I will not divulge as to whom she ends up with, but I will say that it was more than fun to see one of the men end up as a friend and just a friend.

The writing and word choice were light and fun. I felt as though it was Eva's true voice within each page. As some chick lit books read, the character can be whiny and depressing - this was not that kind of read. She was intelligent, successful and unsure as to whether a man would even fit in her life.

I think young and old, married and single will enjoy this one. A classy read with heart and depth.
