Love Overboard

Love Overboard written by Janet Evanovich was a very, very quick and easy read.  I think that I finished this book quicker than any other book I have read for my reading blog.  I would classify this book as a romance, without a doubt. 

It is about a man and woman who meet on a boat and eventually fall in love.  It is not long into the book before you realize that the story is going to revolve around these two characters and the lust they have for one another.  The book briefly talks about their pasts but it mainly focuses on their relationship and it starts out as lust and forms into love. 

It is a sweet romance novel but really didn't do that much for me.  It wasn't really thought provoking, it was just sweet.  That's all I can really say about it.  If you are into romance, this book is for you.  If not, I don't recommend this one!

Remember Me?

Remember Me?  is written by Sophie Kinsella (the same author as the shopaholic series).  I really really liked this book.  It was an easy read and was really funny.  I found myself laughing out loud several times throughout the book. 

The main character, Lexi gets in a car accident, bumps her head and wakes up with amnesia.  Before the accident she basically had nothing going for her.  She was nicknamed Snaggletooth because her teeth were not straight, she was a little overweight, and was just passed up on getting a bonus at her job.  She was even dating a guy they all called Loser Dave.  So you can just imagine what kind of life she was living. 

When she woke up with amnesia, she learned that she was  no longer 'snaggletooth', with pretty veneers, thin tummy and waist, married, and was now the boss at her old job!  She found out that her personality and life had completed changed during the last 4 years. 

Lexi leaves the hospital and goes back to her new home with her new husband and tries to piece together the last 4 years.  She learns a lot about who she has become and doesn't like it.  Eventually she finds out why she changed so drastically. 

I recommend that everyone read this book.  It was a nice change to read something funny and carefree!
