A review by herlifewithbooks
Life by Committee by Corey Ann Haydu
4.0
Good, old-fashioned girly YA realism. I thought Tabby was an well-defined, well-developed protagonist. I liked that she was a self-described romantic. I liked that she didn't back down from what she wanted - romantically & sexually - even though she knew she wasn't making the best choices - I liked her unconventional parents. I'd also like to formally request a companion novel starring Sasha Cotton - do it up Stephanie Perkins style, plz. I could have done without the Mean Girls "I Have a Lot of Feelings" ending, but it didn't detract from my overall impression of the book.
Caveat: I listened to this one on audio. I sensed some narrative clumsiness that probably would have turned me off if I was reading in print. But, on audio, it's pretty much all story. And I liked the story.
