Ten Things I Love About You by Julia Quinn

First, watch the trailer:

Then read 10 Things I loved about 10 Things I Love About You (That’s certainly a mouthful!)

1. The cover fits this book to a tee. From the model’s skin tone and body shape to the knowing look in her eyes, it’s darn near perfect. (If you haven’t seen the cover, watch the trailer.)

2. I stayed up till four in the morning to finish it. It’s been awhile since a book’s made me want to miss sleep.  (I was pretty grumpy the next day, but it was worth it.)

3. It has lists.   I love lists.

4. There were twists and turns I didn’t see coming.

5. It made me want to learn to skip rocks.  (Let’s not talk about the first time I tried skipping rocks.)

6. Sebastian talks! I occassionally get tired of the sulking, brooding hero, so it was a nice change of pace to have someone both smart and funny play the love interest.

7. It entertains, 8. amuses, and 9. gets a couple of those wistful sighs outta me.

10. The happily ever after. I never tire of those.

    What a fun review! Love how you incorporated the book’s title into the review style you choice. Very creative. Oh yeah…skipping rocks, not as easy as it looks! Happy reading…
