Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert
5.0
emotional funny lighthearted reflective fast-paced
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Chloe Brown is chronically ill and she is tired of letting that limit her life. She decides to move out of her family home and begin checking items off her Get A Life list, and she winds up enlisting the help of her very handsome building supervisor, Red. 

Holy cats, I loved this book! Chloe and Red are just wonderful, each both headstrong and vulnerable in their own ways. I loved that this book took them seriously. Chloe's fibromyalgia and Red's past abusive relationship weren't just minor obstacles in the way to their happy ending. These facts were integral to who they were - this book could not have existed without those aspects of their characters. 

And on top of that, this book doesn't read like A Lesson On How To Treat Others As Human, though it's wonderful to see both Chloe and Red find someone who does. It's funny and snappy and wildly sexy, and I’m already busy reading everything Talia Hibbert has ever written.
