Review: Get a Life, Chloe Brown

Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert

Series: The Brown Sisters (Book 1)

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Format: Kindle (public library borrow)

"I’ve always felt like I’m the kind of person who . . .” She smiled, even though it wasn’t funny. “I’m the kind of person who hurts. Too much.” “No,” Gigi corrected calmly. “You are a woman who, in a life filled with pain, came here to ask about love.”"

I loved this book. I actually read them out of order, having the second book available to me before the first was available. It didn't make any difference, though, which is a great endorsement for a book in a series. This is an excellent book with diverse characters--not just in terms of ethnicity, but also class and ability. The inclusion of ability doesn't take away from the relationship building that's in the book, nor is it treated like a badge of honor for either party (e.g., "How brave she is, existing in a disabled body!" or "How noble he is, being romantically involved with a disabled woman!") We don't often get to see that in romance (or in fiction in general), so if that's something that appeals to you, this might be the book for you!
