Get a Life, Chloe Brown

At the start of this book, I thought I was really going to like it. By the time I got 2/3 of the way through it, I knew I would not be rating it highly. Unfortunately, the relationship between the two main characters, Chloe and Red, began to annoy me. I would have DNF-ed the book if I weren't already so close to the end. I was invested in finishing.

For the first half of the book, I really liked Chloe and Red. I especially liked Red's character because he was so genuine and sweet. I liked that Chloe was stepping out of her comfort zone. They seemed like they would make a good couple once they got past their misunderstandings about each other. Then, they got together, and it all fell apart for me. I did not care for the smutty sex scenes. I am not looking for that in this kind of contemporary romance. I also did not like the way the characters started acting. They both were way too caught up in their past issues and overreacted to every little misunderstanding. It just didn't feel like the way real people behave. I no longer liked either one of them by the end of the book.

On a positive note, the writing was very easy to read. I flew through this book, even when I wasn't enjoying it.

Overall, it was a cute premise, and I enjoyed the story line of Chloe's list; however, as a romance it just didn't do it for me.
