Is this the type of book that I usually read? NO
Did I enjoy it? MORE THAN YES
So here is the review:
So, let me start off by saying that I felt so many emotions during this book I laughed my ass off, got sad, got REALLY angry at Max, and overall just had a fantastic time.
Max is a girl who has started a business called Ex Inc. to help girls get over their ex-boyfriends, she runs this business with her two best friends Zach and Pheobe. Max started this business because her ex-boyfriend Hugo “dumped” her… well sort of not really. You’ll understand when you read. So Max’s business is runny smoothly and is working like magic until she tries the system with Bridget. Bridget and her boyfriend have been friends since they were born; they live next door, and did EVERYTHING together. But as Max says… she likes a challenge. OH BOY, a challenge this is.
Max’s mom just happens to be out one day and Ben Cooper the delivery guy for Cooper Baby brings by a crib to put together and when him and Max see each other it’s INSTANT sparks! Ben is so freaking adorable… *SIGH* I wish there were more guys like him around. He is a subtle flirter which I love because he’s not TOO forward… and I know for a fact that Max likes it too!
Max runs into a BIG major problem when she runs into her ex-boyfriend Hugo… because she hasn’t gotten over him yet. When her friends find out they try to help her but Max doesn’t want to admit her weakness to them so she acts as if nothing is wrong and gets herself into trouble because of her pride. I could TOTALLY relate to Max though I mean if I ran a major business helping girls get over their exes and I hadn’t gotten over mine yet… I DEFINITELY wouldn’t want to talk about it.
For this book I’ll say it gets worse before it gets better and you WILL feel like shaking some sense into Max because (OH MAN I can’t tell you). Just read it and find out.. you have to find out if she ends up with Ben or not! So glad I gave this book a chance.

Also, I made a playlist that I thought would be a great fit for this book. I think that these songs are a great way to help girls get over guys. Well at least these songs helped me out when getting over a guy lol!

I remember those teen heartbreaks, I really felt like the world was ending and that I'll be miserable forever. Grown up breakups are something else, I'd be happy to go back to the teen version anytime LOL
"Is this the type of book that I usually read? NO Did I enjoy it? MORE THAN YES" LOL! This book sounds really cute! I'm definitely more into contemporary now than I used to be! Great review, Kayla! :D
