Love Your Life was no exception. <\/p>\n<p>Ava is a young woman who thinks that love should be found meeting someone in person and not using a variety of apps and algorithms.  She\u2019s a woman who has a lot of ideas which she starts, but has a problem with completing. When she has an opportunity to attend a remote writer\u2019s retreat in Italy, she sees this as a way of completing the novel she is determined to write.   <\/p>\n<p>At the retreat, the attendees are told that they are not to communicate about themselves  and to keep their lives (and names) from the outside world separate.  During the retreat, Ava \u201cAria\u201d meets Matt \u201cDutch\u201d and the two end up having a whirlwind vacation romance.  What they didn\u2019t expect was that they both lived in London and could continue this romance back in the real world.  Would they feel the same about one another once they truly got to know each other? <\/p>\n<p>I really enjoyed this book.  Ava and Matt\u2019s holiday romance was truly romantic and I felt myself swooning.  Once they returned home to their separate households, (both very unique), and their diverse and quirky set of friends, the flavour of the book changed to humour.  I really appreciated that there were so many well-developed characters (I can see this group with their own sit-com).  The book was engaging throughout and I loved the twists to the story which kept me wanting to read more.  This is not only a great romantic comedy &#8211; it is also a story of the personal growth we experience as a byproduct of relationships. <\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Netgalley and Penguin Random House Canada for the ARC of this book in exchange for the honest review provided here. <\/p>\n<p>My rating:  \u2b50\ufe0f \u2b50\ufe0f \u2b50\ufe0f \u2b50\ufe0f\/5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Publication Day to Sophie Kinsella! &nbsp; Most known for her Shopaholic series, her books are full of interesting characters, humour and romance.
