More chick-flicky romantic comedy than the more scandalous affairs Ive become used to when it comes to romance, Kristan Higgins writing will have you smiling, bouncing, and sighing over this straight-up romance with the best of intentions.

Grace is a smart and funny woman with a really awkward weaknesses when it comes to talking to and about guys that will make you both pity and empathize with her. Sometimes her stupidity when it comes to guys drove me crazy: you kind of just want to shake her and yell in her face, SNAP OUT OF IT, ALREADY!

But when Grace is not making a fool of herself regarding guys, shes the best, with an endearingly geeky love of Civil War reenactments (have you ever met a character who was into Civil War reenactments? I didnt think so) and appreciation for teaching history. This makes it totally possible for us to cheer for her happy ending, when she finally gets itand Callahan is no slacker in the ideal guy department, if yanno what I mean.

Complete with zany family members and laugh-out-loud dialogue, Kristan Higgins books will now be on my radar forevermore when Im looking for a sweet and funny romance. Highly recommended!
