MY THOUGHTS
The premise for this book definitely sucked me in: men reading
romance books as aids to help them repair their relationships. Wouldn’t you
love to be a fly on the wall at those meetings? And we can be!
THE BROMANCE BOOK CLUB by Lyssa Kay Adams certainly covers some
tough subjects in this book. There’s a marriage on the rocks with both partners
still afflicted by past experiences. Although I sometimes felt the majority
blame for this marriage collapse was unfairly placed at the feet of our hero, I
console myself with the knowledge that this is not far removed from real life
situations.
Setting aside the serious issues, I really enjoyed the fun
and lightness Adams brought to the story. The differing personalities and
escapades of the other ‘Bromancers’ makes for a madcap group of men genuinely
trying to help in a highly unconventional way.
With plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and an overall upbeat
narrative, I really enjoyed the time I spent reading this book. Can’t wait for
the next one!
