The Quit List Book Review
julho 15, 2024
Thank you to Netgalley the Publisher, of Dreamscape Media, and the author Katie Bailey for providing and allowing me to review this book. Which, I'm giving my honest and sincere review.
I was instantly captivated by the charming premise and relatable characters. This delightful rom-com had me laughing, swooning, and rooting for love from start to finish.
Summary: Holly Greene is on a determined quest to find her Prince Charming. Her detailed plan for happily ever after doesn’t include falling for a bad-boy bartender like Jax Grainger. Jax is everything Holly is not looking for: witty, smart-mouthed, and a staunch non-believer in love. He’s the quintessential bad boy who views love as nothing more than a four-letter word.
Holly, however, is undeterred. After Jax rescues her from a disastrous date, she realizes that he could be the perfect ally in her search for Mr. Right. Despite not checking any of her boxes, Jax agrees to help Holly navigate the dating scene. The catch? Holly just needs to stick to her plan and avoid falling for the charming bartender herself.
Review: "The Quit List" is an absolute gem. From the very first page, I found myself hooked by Katie Bailey’s engaging writing style and the undeniable chemistry between Holly and Jax. Holly is endearing in her determination to find true love, and her interactions with Jax are both hilarious and heartwarming. Jax, with his bad boy charm and hidden depths, makes for an irresistible love interest.
The dynamic between Holly and Jax is the highlight of the book. Their banter is sharp, witty, and often laugh-out-loud funny. Holly’s earnest quest for love juxtaposed with Jax’s cynical view of romance creates a perfect tension that keeps you eagerly turning pages. As they navigate Holly’s list of potential suitors, the growing attraction between them becomes impossible to ignore.
Bailey does a fantastic job of developing her characters, making them feel real and relatable. Holly’s optimism and determination are inspiring, while Jax’s gradual softening and vulnerability add depth to his character. The supporting cast, including Holly’s friends and the various dates she goes on, add color and humor to the story.
The plot is well-paced, balancing humor and heart in equal measure. Holly’s journey to find love is filled with both comedic mishaps and poignant moments, making for a thoroughly enjoyable read. The eventual realization of Holly and Jax’s feelings for each other is satisfying and heartwarming, providing the perfect conclusion to their story.
Conclusion: Reading "The Quit List" by Katie Bailey was a delightful experience. It’s a heartwarming and hilarious rom-com that explores the unpredictability of love and the importance of finding someone who truly understands you. If you’re a fan of witty banter, charming characters, and feel-good romance, this book is a must-read. It’s a reminder that sometimes love can be found in the most unexpected places and that the journey to finding it can be just as rewarding as the destination.
