Dashing Through the No by Tara Sivec
5.0

Okay, so I’ve seen some reviews of Sivec’s books where people say they were just a little too out there for them. And you know what? If you aren’t prepared to laugh your ass off at the ridiculousness of the situations and characters in these stories, then yeah, these might not be the books for you. On the other hand, I can’t wait to open her books and be swept away with laughter and love the characters and craziness of their stories. As someone who grew up in the 80s world of “Just Say No” and now that I’m a teacher, I’ve always been pretty much not going to end up with or be attracted to a pothead or someone who uses a lot of weed or other drugs. But in this book, I kind of fell in love with Bodhi and he is now a book boyfriend for me. I don’t even think it was just his background story, it was more about what he contributed to his relationship and how he did so much just for Tess, even if it wasn’t exactly what he wanted. So yes, I loved this one.
