![]() ![]() I laughed so hard through the book and not just at the dog antics. ![]() While it was not the trashy bodice-ripping romance I always associated with Harlequin the love scene towards the end ruined an otherwise charming, funny as can be, fluffy novel. ![]() I realized when I got home that it was a Harlequin novel. It mentioned a dog so I inquired about if the dog dies (I typically avoid animal stories because they are almost always sad). I recognized the name from someone recommending her to me on Twitter. I might live in the south, but I am not a southerner and southern writing doesn't really appeal to me. She also pointed me to some "funny" novels about southern society set in Savannah. I picked up one book that was more my normal read - the opening pages mentioned a plane crash in the mountains and a freezing Jack Russell terrier (I have a JR terror), so I decided against it - maybe later I'll pick it up because it did look good. Anyways, she preceded to point out a few books. I love living in small towns where the librarian knows my reading taste. She replied you don't read light and fluffy. I explained I needed something light and fluffy. She looked at me a bit funny: obviously, I needed a book since I was at the library (though I seem to check out more movies than books). I walked into my library and told my librarian I needed a book. After reading many depressing books and feeling a bit depressed myself, I needed something to lift my spirits. ![]()
