lisaluvsliterature 's review for:

Beauty and the Mustache by Penny Reid
5.0

Since I had already read some of the Winston brothers books before I got to this one, it was fun to read through their actual introduction. Although it would have been hilarious to have my first introduction to Beau as how it happens in this book. We got some awesome lines in this book, for instance:

"Bearded masturbating hillbillies!"

And since I hadn't at the time, or still haven't read all the brothers' books, I have one or two more still, I was wondering and guessing if any of the characters in the book were ones they'd end up with. Now, there were a couple times with the whole Jackson James bit that I felt the story maybe contradicted something it had said earlier. But I need to grab a physical copy to go back and see if what I heard was right, or if I wasn't paying attention that well. Like when Ashley says that Jackson James was her first and he used to be her best friend, but then she said she wasn't attracted to him either.

There was a scene where Ashley overhears her mom and Drew discussing her, and I love those scenes if they're done right. A great book, both for tying into to the KITC series and getting the Winston brothers going as well.

Now the cover above is for the paperback version not the audiobook version, but I like this one better.
