A Page Turner!

Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2019

Once I started reading “Easily Amused,” I had a hard time putting it down. The plot was captivating, even though the ending was quite predictable. The character development was superb. If I saw Ryan walking down the street, I’d recognize him from a block away. And I’d invite Hubert to come stay with me any day! I want an aunt like this one who would will to me her old house in a quaint old neighborhood like this one. I could see this being made into a movie ... and I hope there will be a sequel. I’ll look for it!

I'm sorry that I spent money on it, but at least it was only $1.50.

Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2017

This was very juvenile writing. I read the whole thing, but I wish I could have that time back. The main character was small minded and not very bright. The other characters were not fleshed out and the writing was somewhat disjointed.

I feel kind of bad about this review, since I've certainly never written a novel myself, but I am an avid reader who depends upon reviews, so here's a heads up, fellow bookworms.

Couldn't get through it

Lola is a doormat, her sister is cruel and obnoxious as is her sister's friend. I don't know if Amazon will publish my review if I saw what I really think. It's like watching a reality show you can't get away from. I couldn't get through the book, I had to stop listening because I wanted to break my phone.

Can I have my brain cells back, please.

Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2010

Contains spoilers...although it's not like it's not a very predictable book anyways. Lots more just like it in the young adult section.

Brain cells died while reading this book. I found the characters childish and shallow. I've finished the book, and while I love to read just about anything, I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone. It feels like it's written by a teenager. The characters are so petty and childish and the ending was predictable. Also, it started really slow, and then all of a sudden was in super fast mode at the end. Feels like it skipped a lot, and the plot wasn't substantial. Looking forward to a different book.

Lola is immature for being 29. She's constantly reviling her sister and then thinking things like 'oh, they see right through her' and such. It's annoying, and most of the book. The book is about sibling rivalry, but instead of putting believable ages, like 13 and 11, they are 29 and however old her younger sister is..

The 'great' guy is obviously going to have something wrong with him from the beginning, especially since the friend/roommate starts hitting on her, and she starts contemplating it. Uh, now we definitely know how this book is going to turn out.

I only gave it one star because I HAD to.

UGH!

I love to read and have a pretty firm policy to always finish a book even if I don't love it. That policy got thrown out with this book. I could not find one thing to like about the main characters. They were irritating, unlikable and annoying. There was nothing amusing about this book. Save your money!

Icky, awful. The main characters were unlikeable, shallow, petty. The descriptions of male sexual organs was off-putting. This book left a bad taste in my mouth. We are not amused.

Easy read but not worth it

The protagonist was moody, negative and depressing the entire book. The book was poorly written and I wouldn’t recommend it even for a beach day read.

At first I thought the story might be a good one. The more I read

At first I thought the story might be a good one. The more I read, the worse it became. The characters were all portrayed as immature, foul mouthed teenagers, who never grew up! (Do age 30 ish people really act like this? Are they really that stupid and immature? No depth, not morals?) I almost stopped reading when I got 1/2 way through, but decided I would finish it so I could give an honest review. When I reached the end, I really wished that I had quit at the half way mark! The characters never improved, the story got worse, and the sex scene was horrible...not funny at all..really rather disgusting.. so much so that I sort of jumped over most of the words...just like I skipped over most of the swear words through out the book. I hate books with continuous foul language. I will not be reading anymore of this author's books.

Predictable & boring

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2014

Verified Purchase

I felt this was very predictable and boring. I can't believe I actually read the entire book. It was very drawn out and no depth to the main characters. The neighbors as the minor characters were more interesting. But I bought it as an ebook for $1.99 so I was not expecting much.

Lost me when Lola seems stupid

Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2012

I can put up with a put-upon character only so long. When Lola didn't know the difference between types of cars, then I thought she was just stupid. I was looking for an escape novel but the plot and characters just annoyed me.

Not that amusing.

Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2014

I didn't enjoy this book. The main character was not very likeable. She's vain, self-centered and not very bright. The storyline is a typical predictable romance. I would not recommend this book.
