Release Blast and Review: AWK-WEIRD by Avery Flynn




There’s more to me than just being awk-weird. I own my own flower shop, have some great friends, and I have my eye on adopting the most adorable kitten. But sadly, hot guys don’t tend to be blown away by my trivia-spouting, dorky self.

So, when a Thor-lookalike who happens to be a professional hockey player hits on me at my bestie's wedding rehearsal party ... You better believe I climbed that tree like a cat. And the face that it happened not once, not twice, but three times? Yeah, that's pretty much a once-in-a-lifetime experience for a woman like me. 

There's zero chance I'll end up ever seeing him again...right? 

Until the pregnancy test comes up positive. What happens next?

Oh my God, I wish I knew...

My Thoughts:

I want to start off by saying I'm a big fan of Avery Flynn's and I usually love all of her books with their feisty heroines and drool-worthy hunks,and though I liked this book, I didn't love it like the others. Which is a shame because I really liked Cole and wanted to read more about him. I think my problem was with Tess. I know what it's like to be a Tess and to struggle in uncomfortable situations - not to mention having the weird trivia knowledge - but sometimes I felt like it was a little over the top and it got to be too much at times. I kept wondering how old she was because sometimes she came off as really young and sometimes she came off as older. And the way she kept putting barriers between herself and Cole was very frustrating! It was like she didn't really give him a chance until it was almost too late for one. So she wasn't exactly my favorite heroine of Flynn's (that would be Butterface) but she was okay beneath all that awkwardness. The true diamond of this story was Cole. I just love how he was with her, how he found her awkwardness endearing rather than annoying, and especially how he really stepped up to the plate and never balked at his responsibilities when needed. He's the real reason this story worked for me and the best parts always included him in some way. He was just such a good character and I loved reading about him. And he was always just so patient with Tess and all her misgivings - I don't think he lost his cool once with her. Sure, he got frustrated, but he always maintained some level of calm with her. He's just a good guy and don't we need a lot more of those? I know I do!
