This book has done what few rom-com books have done before: it told the story primarily from the male lead's perspective. I was pleasantly surprised by the how much I enjoyed this. I think I expected more raunch (there was plenty of it, but it didn't show up until much later than "usual" for a book like this) and for it to be way too cheesy. Instead, it was hilarious, witty, and even insightful. I leaned over at one point while reading to tell my husband, "maybe you should read this too."

The concept of a grown man joining a book club full of his baseball teammates to read romance novels in hopes to save his marriage was truly brilliant. It had me cracking up on plenty of occasions, and the totally feminist quotes from his peers were excellent too. Very well-done!
