Get a Life, Chloe Brown
by Talia Hibbert
Get A Life, Chloe Brown is such a fun book. Chloe Brown, the titular character, is the antithesis to the typical leading lady you'd expect to find in a romance. She's Black, she's curvy, she's chronically ill and she's a coder. She's independent and meticulously organised, she's sarcastic and funny.
Chloe also believes she's boring and in need of a complete life overhaul. She's writes a list, detailing the things she needs to do to revamp here life. Things like move out, ride a motorbike, go camping and having meaningless but enjoyable sex.
While trying to get a life Chloe meets Red. Red is good looking (of course) but he's also dealing with his own baggage. He goes to therapy while trying to piece his own life back together after the end of an emotionally abusive relationship.
Chloe and Red are attracted to each other but neither want a relationship. Cue the drama!
We've got two realistic characters (tick) and then we get to see their lust and romance develop in a really authentic way. (Double tick).
There's flirty emails and banter that is completely on point. Not to mention, some very steamy scenes. The romance feels genuine. It reminded me so much of the early days in a relationship, where getting to know someone else is fun, flirty and super exciting.
The amount of tension is just right. It never felt over dramatized or over the top. The characters and their romance feels real. Like you could be hearing the story from two of your friends.
If you need a book to make you smile, Get A Life, Chloe Brown will definitely do that.
