Quick Pick book review: My Favorite Half-Night Stand, by Christina Lauren

  • Reason I picked up the book: I'm a huge Christina Lauren fan, and it sounded super cute.
  • And what's this book about?
  • From the New York Times bestselling author that “hilariously depicts modern dating” (Us Weekly) comes a sexy romantic comedy about online dating, and its many, many fails.

    With a world-famous speaker at their university, Millie Morris and her four woefully single male colleagues make a pact that they’ll all find dates. Unfortunately, Millie has more success helping them make matches online than she does navigating the onslaught of lewd pics in her own feed. But when she creates a fictional name for a new account, Millie finds herself vying for the online attention of a man she sees every day in the flesh.

  • Recommended for: Anyone who likes chick lit, or who has navigated online dating before.
    • Favorite paragraph: I'm the kind of tipsy where I should want to hug everyone, not pull my best friend's pants down. 

      GAH. 

      Strictly platonic best guy friend. Strictly platonic best guy friend.

      Heat rushes to my face and I stand so quickly my chair teeters on its back legs. Four sets of curious eyes swing in my direction, and I turn, making a beeline for the bathroom.
      • Something to know: You'll probably figure out the HEA before you get to the end of the book, but it was still enjoyable to read.
      • What I would have changed: Nothing.
      • Overall rating: 4.5 stars out of 5.
      • Where can I find this book? Click here to purchase on Amazon - this book will be in stores and online on December 4, 2018.
