I’ve reached that critical point in my adult reading where I can not tolerate reading the words barf, snot, pooping, peeing, and butt in the first 30 pages of a book.
Franny and Hayes meet in such a funny way and this book starts off being hilarious. I love Kate Spencer’s writing and humor. This is the perfect escape rom-com to laugh and settle in with. Definitely a great read!Watch my interview with Kate: https://amazon.com/live/broadcast/954...
There is the meet-cute and there is a meet-while-my-dress-is-being-ripped-off-my-body-cute!Ever have one of those days, where nothing seems to go your way? Franny Doyle has been laid off from her job, the subway door ripped off her dress and it is all caught on video. Sure, Hayes Montgomery III gave her his jacket to cover up with but everybody and their brother have already seen. Then to top it off, she and Hayes have unwittingly become social media sensations. But it is not as if they are goin...
Welp, I'm sorry to say this wasn't at all the fun swoony romp that I thought it had potential to be. I only really requested this because I had seen mutuals review it early and really enjoy it so I am very likely to be an outlier on this one.What I appreciated most about this story was the dialogue around the trend of posting photos or videos of people without their consent and creating a narrative out of it. A narrative that, sure, maybe is often right but so often can be wrong. And that's what...
Now that's what we call a romantic comedy, folks! I know I'm not alone in lamenting the use of "rom-com" to describe any and every book that is simply contemporary romance. So, it's a pleasure to read a book that actually reminds you of classic rom-com movies. Kate Spencer's debut is a charmer and I have no doubt it's going to be a hit with romance readers.In A New York Minute opens up with Franny not only losing her job but also ripping the back of her dress in the subway - the way I SCREAMED i...
Shut the door! In a New York Minute is simply laugh out loud funny! It has all the elements that a romantic comedy should have — fun characters and funny moments. The characters of Franny, Hayes and the rest of the players are witty and entertaining — with just enough snarkiness to make you smile.The story unfolds from Franny and Hayes’ points of view. It’s an inventive technique to incorporate a male’s perspective as I got to read about the budding romance from not only Franny’s view but Hayes’...
This rom-com had so much to love. I think my favorite part was the friendships between Franny, Lola, and Cleo and between Hayes and Eleanor. This “meet cute” was a total cringeworthy disaster when Franny after being laid off has the subway rip her entire dress down the back. Hayes offers her his stylish suit jacket and they are awkward until he leaves and they think that’s the end. Luckily another passenger instagrammed the whole thing even giving them a cheesy nickname. Overall I enjoyed this o...
THE CUTENESS!!!The meet-cute— no spoiler to be found here, read the book! — in this story and the author truly engaging voice made it near impossible to put the book down! The most endearing mess of a woman finds herself entangled repeatedly with her total opposite made of the sternest stuff in a series of random meetings through a movie worthy New-York setting.Add to this a wholesome supporting cast, best friends, family, quality witty banter, an alluring portrayal of New York: this adorable
In a New York Minute by Kate SpencerContemporary romance, romantic comedy. Franny isn’t having a very good day. First she gets laid off and then on the way home, her dress gets stuck in the subway train doors and rips down the back. A stranger comes to her rescue and offers his suit jacket.
