Rules for Thursday Lovers by Yana Stajno
3.0
When I read the book description of ‘Rules for Thursday Lovers’ I knew this would be a different kind of book then my usual reads. But since that was what I was looking for at the moment I decided I really wanted to give this book a try. And don’t you just love that cover?!
In ‘Rules for Thursday Lovers’ we meet Angie and Fiona, two old school friends. Both woman are kind of bored and frustrated with their lives. One alcohol involved evening Angie and Fiona share their stories with each other and soon a plan is formed. Angie and Fiona will be looking for a lover they can timeshare. An hilarious journey starts.
To be completely honest, it took me a little while to really get into this story. I think this was because I needed to get used to the writing style. Especially in the beginning the story felt a little all over the place. Not necessarily in a bad way, but I had some trouble figuring out what was going on. Thankfully I got used to the writing and I could really start enjoying the story and the characters.
I really enjoyed the friendship between Angie and Fiona. It was fun to read and really entertaining. There were definitely some really funny moments which made me want to keep on reading this book till the very end. The best part for me was reading about how different both Angie and Fiona’s character were. I found reading about them very entertaining.
The one problem I had with this book was the whole looking for a lover, while being married part. I don’t understand how people can do that, and it definitely made me opinionated about this read. I tried to get past my personal feelings, and although I think I managed to see past it more than I thought I would, I still feel like I wasn’t completely able to get past it. And because of that I didn’t love this book as much as I wanted to.
Still, ‘Rules for Thursday Lovers’ is definitely an enjoyable read.
