And now for a book that can leave you smiling this holiday season....
Synopsis:
Can two people who have never met make a marriage work? Popular dating site Sociality thinks so, and is marrying London lad Adam to California girl Jessica to prove it.
What better way to show that your ‘love algorithms’ work than to put two complete strangers together in an expensive publicity stunt? But, as livewire Jess and lazybones Adam quickly discover, just because a computer says you’re the perfect match, it doesn’t make it so!
Two million Sociality subscribers and the media are following the happy couple’s progress, and they have to make a go of it or they’ll lose everything, look like idiots, and destroy Sociality’s reputation. But can the mismatched pair, who seem to be constantly at each other’s throats, put their differences aside and work their way into each other’s hearts?
Nick Spalding, bestselling author of Fat Chance and Bricking It, will make you cry with laughter at this story of marital warfare—complete with sinking boats, badly aimed flatulence, well aimed tennis balls and some very suggestive pastry.
Review:
I literally could NOT put this book down! I intended to read about 4-5 chapters, but oh no, once I started, I could NOT put it down! This book is hilarious, sharp and heartwarming, all at the same time! What if reality TV meets internet dating, meets 'male chick lit' (not quite sure what you call if, it its written by a male...). The result is this hilarious romp that will leave you wondering why no one else thought of it before. It's so simple and basic, yet Spalding gives each character such UNIQUE characteristics, that you feel like you KNOW everyone involved, and that you're hearing this story from a couple of good friends, who have just gone through it!If there is ONE book you want to read this holiday season, THIS is the book-I promise you will not be able to put it down, and when you do, you'll be wondering when the movie will come out, it's THAT good!
