About the Book:

It all started with a bet and a book.

Emory Blake is the ultimate bibliophile. She’d take curling up with a good novel over a night on the town any day of the week. But then best friend Tate Woodby accuses her of living between the pages of her paperbacks instead of the real world, and makes a bet that will force her to experience the adventures of her fictional friends…instead of just reading about them. 

With her face no longer buried in books, Emory must confront the pain of the past. But is it also her perfect opportunity to discover the hunky hero who could be the happily-ever-after of her own story?

My Review:

This was such a fun story!  'Bookishly Ever After' is the first novella in Sarah Monzon's 'Book Nerds and Boyfriends' series, and it's a fairly quick read (around 100 pages).  Though the page count is low, the action found between the covers is jam packed with humor and heart.

So why is Emory content to exist within the world of her books?  Because books are safe--they don't expect anything, they don't get pushy, and they are basically safe.  Compared to the real world.  Right?

Tate is the best kind of friend, challenging Emory to leave her world of imaginary people and to interact with real life people.  However, he has a hidden agenda, and you can probably surmise it has to do with a thing called love.

I loved the premise, the execution, and the characters.  I'll be reading the rest of the 'BN&BF' series for sure.  I'm pleased to recommend 'Bookishly Ever After' to you.  I grabbed a digital copy of this one, and it's available now!

Until the next read,
