Love Handles by Gretchen Galway

I've managed to finish this book but it was a struggle. It seemed really long. It's a story of a young woman who suddenly discovers, that she inherited a sports clothing company. The problem is that she is a pre-school tracher and she knows nothing about business or management. Luckily for her, there is a handsome man ready to help her. I didn't like the book. It was boring - long pages of conversations which didn't lead anywhere. The heroine kept changing her mind and she seemed both spineless and stubborn, the hero was cold and manipulative. Everybody seemed dishonest, mean or stupid and I generally didn't like any character in this book. It says on the cover it's a romantic comedy, but it wasn't funny. It wasn't very romantic, either, although there was a kind of a love story. I gave this book one star and I'm not going to read any other books by this author in the future.

Failure! :(

It's the first book in this challenge I didn't manage to finish. I've read about 20% so far and I didn't find it too inspiring - oh, well, I'll still try to finish it and I'll write what I think about it when I do. But it clearly shows, that you definitely shouldn't choose a book basing only on its cover :)

11 - a book based entirely on its cover

This week it's a book based entirely on its cover. I decided the easiest way to handle it would be to look through my TBR e-books, because I have all the covers on display there.  I read a lot of romances, so most of the covers are really boring - a half-naked man, a woman looking at the sea or a couple, kissing or holding hands. But I managed to find some covers which seemed different and intriguing. The problem was that in most cases I already knew the author so I knew what to expect. But finally I found one which seemed interesting and I knew absolutely nothing about the author:  Love Handles by Gretchen Galway We'll see what I think about it in a week. I really hope I'll like it! :)
