#WhatchaReading? On my third try, I finally finished The Wake Up Call. I liked it fairly well by the end, but I don't read Beth O'Leary for tropiness and this was all trope all the time. And I'm just not that fond of the "she's a childish pain in the ass and somehow he loves her for it" relationship dynamic. There was some nice tenderness and angst... the supposedly stoic MMC really gets punched in the gut, poor sweet baby.

@willaful I agree, not my favorite O’Leary. I finally finished listening to Elle Maxwell’s “Us, Again” and I don’t know why I didn’t DNF it; it really wasn’t what I was after and I didn’t like the MMC much (or understand the relationship, I suppose). Now on to listening to BK Borison’s “Lovelight Farm” which I like more already. @romancelandia @romancebooks
