Still catching up on the book review backlog. Have I mentioned that I've been having insomnia problems and turned to books? Expect at least two more reviews this week.

I decided that liked Miss Bubbles enough that I ordered another of Melanie Murray's novels:


Good Times, Bad Boys by Melanie Murray

Twitter-sized review: A "why not to date a musican" story seemingly patterned after this list. Funny and adorable

Longer Notes: I actually liked this better than Miss Bubbles Steals the Show, perhaps because I found it much easier to identify with the music journalist protagonist and musicans than I could with the actress protagonist. Echo is a little more driven and in some ways little less hapless, while still feeling very fallibly human in a romance-protagonist sort of way. But the real sell of this book is how incredibly funny it is. Seriously, it's like the author took this list about writers (or some similar one about musicians) and brought it all to life in living colour. (I could see this as a movie, easily!) It's incredibly adorable and hilarious and I most definitely recommend this one if you're looking for a bit of fun.
