Every Girl Does It by Rachel Van Dyken, Book Review

By Books Are Sanity!!! -


Blurb:

When I was little, I was under the impression that guys rode in on white horses and rescued the fair damsel from the dragon. They'd ride off into the sunset, share true loves kiss and live happily ever after.

Nobody ever told me it was a lie.

Or that the only guy who would rescue you in High School was the school nerd with Star Wars t-shirts and glasses thicker than an airplane window. 


I guess it shouldn't come as much of a shock that once I graduated high school and started "my career" the first guy to sweep me off my feet was a complete loser, followed by someone who still lived with his mother, and finally coming full circle to where Im sitting now. At some chicks wedding while my boyfriend stands up in the middle of the ceremony and yells, "I object!" 


Disney did not prepare me for this. 


Bad gets worse when I run into the ghost of high school nerds past only to find him a smoking hot firefighter. Unfortunately, he remembers how I treated him, so now I'm the nerd and he's the sexy one. Pretty sure Karma's coming for me in a really big way especially considering Preston refuses to leave me alone and ends up on vacation with me and my friends, friends he stole by the way, in Hawaii. 


He says he likes me, yet annoys me at every turn, and I can't help but think he wants some sort of revenge for turning him down in front of the entire student body. One things for certain, this vacation? Not going to end well. Besides it's not like I'm going to fall for him...nope. Not..at *cough* all



My Review:

Always a big Van Dyken fan, I grabbed Every Girl Does It as soon as it was re-released!  (This is her first novel)  I fell in love!  Every Girl Does It is laugh out loud funny (so people may give you strange looks when you burst out in laughter)  and I just couldn't believe the over-the-top and bigger-than-life personality of Amanda.  She makes the entire book what it is...and that is a lot of fun and hilarity!  Preston is so cute and sweet, any girl would love to fall for him!  Together with Amanda, they are like fire and ice!  I loved the Brad and Angelina bit and how Ashlyn fit into the ending

was perfect!  If you want some laughter and fun, plus romance, please read this book, you will be so happy you did!


Happy Reading!!!


You can pick up your own copy of Every Girl Does It via Amazon.
