Exes and Ohs

*Sigh*  If you're in the mood for a light, fluffy, romantic read, do I have the book for you!  Exes and Ohs, by Beth Kendrick, is ADORABLE!!!


Every time I cracked this book open, I had that giddy feeling like, "Ooooh, what's gonna happen now?!"  It's the cutest little love story, the characters are likable and hilarious, and it's just FUN.  Check out the book's first sentence:


"The first time I ran into Dennis after the infamous nonwedding, I was wearing a coffee-stained tank top, no makeup, and baggy red track pants that made my ass look as big as Montana."

The book centers around Gwen, a child psychologist whose fiance left her the night before their wedding.  After running into him months later, she has a crying, cell phone-throwing meltdown in the middle of the street, only to be rescued by the gorgeous, sweet, funny Alex.  They wind up dating, and things seem perfect.  When they open up the "ex-files," Alex tells Gwen about his most recent breakup, which was with a well-known and crazy soap star named Harmony.  Aside from being intimidated by the fact that Alex's last girlfriend was model-gorgeous, Gwen thinks she can handle this news...that is, until she walks into work the next day to discover that her new patient is Harmony's son!  AND, Harmony drops a BIG bomb on Gwen that sends everyone's lives into a tailspin!

This is definitely one of my favorite books I've read this year.  It's really great to read after you've finished something serious because it's quick n' easy.  I remember when I used to watch the show 24, I'd need to watch an episode of Seinfeld afterwards to lighten the mood!  Exes and Ohs does exactly that.  It's candy for your brain, and I'm tellin' ya - you will love every bite!
