Hissy Fit: A Book Review
I've gotten to the point lately, where when I read a book I like, I look up all of the author's other books & read as many of them as I can. I did this with Jodi Picoult a couple of years ago and I just read the majority of Cecelia Ahern's books. Now I'm onto Mary Kay Andrews. I fell in love with The Fixer-Upper (via someone's blog, but I can't for the life of me remember who). Next, I read Savannah Blues (and am now ready to read the next two sequels: Savannah Breeze and The Blue Christmas). But, I just finished Hissy Fit:
It was great. Don't get me wrong, if you're looking for an intellectual book where you can further your knowledge and challenge your spirituality, this is NOT THE BOOK. I deal with people all day long who ask me to solve my problems and challenge my patience and abilities. I do math ALL DAY. When I come home, thinking hard is the last thing on my mind. Hissy Fit is the kind of book where you can figure out the romance, duh, the two main characters spend the whole book chasing other people, of course they'll end up together in the end, but the side stories keep you guessing, so it's not completely predictable. If you have a chance to read it, I suggest reading The Fixer Upper first and then Hissy Fit.
I give it an B+/A-.
Edited to add: It's been really cool to check out the author's website while reading the book too. I found out that Cecelia Ahern co-writes Samantha Who? and I saw a picture of the house that the book Hissy Fit was written after. Pretty cool.
