Just Another Silly Love Song

You are reading it here first! This officially is my new favourite Rich Amooi book! Five Minutes Late will also be very special to me and being the super fan I am and having read all of his books now it was not an easy decision to make. Ok who am I kidding, it was way easy. From the get-go I was hooked on Ben and Lori, I loved them from the start, I smiled, I laughed and I loved with them.

Lori is a DJ, working the evening love zone shift, my personal favourite on a Saturday night when I was growing up. Her boyfriend Zachary calls her live on-air and dumps her- douche! She also gets fired I mean what the hell!

Dr Tough Love, aka Ben, a DJ for another station, does the morning love shift, has been told things have got to change for success to be made.

Side entrance- Lori walks in!

These two are chalk and cheese. The fact they don’t agree on anything draws the listeners (and readers) in. The banter on air is classic, Lori is soft and fluffy and well Ben didn’t get his name by chance. They bounce off each and it has me giggling!

Grandma Joyce and Grandpa Wayne are a complete hoot! They were so much fun to read about, especially with the blackmailing they do, scandalous!

I always hate how quickly I finish Rich’s book and as much as I want to slow it down I can’t, I still find I have read them so quickly and my light has gone. This book has brought a lot of joy to me over here, pure escapism, witty banter and most of all so much fun. Amooi’s writing is magic, he gets women just as much as he gets men. The actions are realistic, they are not damsel women who need rescuing, they need their eyes opening that’s all. His women have spunk and know what they want unless it’s the hot man in front of them, then they go a bit ga ga…so yeah just like a “typical” woman, and I have no qualms with that stereotype!

I will always read a book by Rich, without fail or reading the blurb, or seeing the cover. Just knowing it’s his name on the book, I know it will be pure magic and fun!
