Who’s That Girl

Who's That Girl by Mhairi McFarlane

December 23, 2019 by Classic Leave a Comment

This was a strong 3.5 star read I rounded up to 4 stars. Biggest issue is that some characters read like cliches (Louis) and also Edie was a hot mess. It’s fine if you are a hot mess, but she stayed a hot mess for a good majority of the book. Her being angry that an A-list star wasn’t trying to get with her was just exhausting at some point. I thought parts of the book were funny and some sad (her discussing what happened […]

You Had Me at Hello

You Had Me at Hello by Mhairi McFarlane

December 23, 2019 by Classic Leave a Comment

I feel bad for saying this, but this is one of my least favorite books by McFarlane. I think the biggest problem I have is that the heroine (Rachel) is hoping for emotional cheating or something to happen with the hero (Ben) who we go into knowing is married. I just didn’t like her and thought Ben read her very well at the end. She was and still is a mess. I think the Happily Ever After (HEA) we get was 100 percent not earned. […]

Wonderful Romance!

Don't You Forget About Me by Mhairi McFarlane

July 9, 2019 by Classic Leave a Comment

Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. This book will be released on September 10, 2019.  So “Don’t You Forget About Me” was wonderful. I have never read McFarlane before, but now I want to read all of her books. This book had so much heart and I loved Georgina (the main character) and her friends Jo, Clem, and Rav. I also laughed a lot and even teared up when you find out why Georgina’s […]

What happens when the one who got away comes back? Well, I’ll have less sympathy with you when you’re the reason he got away in the first place.

SPOILER WARNING! There are some plot spoilers in this review, as I found it impossible to express my feelings without going into specific plot details. Rachel has just broken up with Rhys, her boyfriend of fourteen years, who she’d been dating since University. Once they got into an argument about what band to have at their wedding, it became obvious to her that they really didn’t have a future together, and she’s been staying with him more out of habit than anything else. Now they […]
