Annie Wood is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and Dandy Day
Summary:
Dandy Day is a thirty-five year old free-spirited, commitment-phobic, Venice Boardwalk roller skating waitress. When Dandy is suddenly dumped by her therapist, right when they were on the brink of figuring out why her relationships last only a whopping three months, Dandy decides to take her relationship issues into her own hands. With the reluctant help of her lifelong best friend, Simon, Dandy tracks down her exes one by one and does a relationship autopsy on each of them in order to get to the bottom of her relationship challenged life.
A short novel about love, friendship and grown ups (sort of) growing up (sort of).
Review:
What a fun book! This novel is short and to the point, filled with laughs and relatable characters. From reading the synopsis I thought this would be a book for me, and I was right! I read it on my recent plane rides and I hoped I didn’t disturb my neighbors too much with my snorts of laughter from certain scenes of the “relationship autopsies.” If you’re looking for a quick romantic comedy, check out Dandy Day.
4.5 stars
