I love Janie. Sometimes Quinn is a little annoying, because he seems so possessive. I love the relationship Janie and Quinn have, especially how they talk to each other. It was great to get wrapped up in their world and antics again.

Quinn is hot. Like real hot.
Janie is crazy and I love it. Who would plan a nightmare of a wedding when you don't want a wedding?!
Oh and the scene where she picks the ring, SWOON!

Love love love these characters!! Janie gets a little wordy some time but I still couldn't put it down and caught myself grinning the entire book. Can't wait to see where the series goes next, fingers crossed we see more Janie and Quinn!

Thought this was really and I really enjoyed the bachelorette party scene.

This book was not as good as the first book, but it was still an enjoyable story. One of the things I enjoyed most about this book is the character development of the other ladies and their tight bonds with one another. I enjoy how this book really stresses the importance of the relationship among the girls.

The book was not quite as steamy as the first book, but it was fun and really focused on relationships.

I do, now see why so many reviews did not care for the main character's naivete in the first book, as I kind of felt that way in the beginning but quickly warmed up to her again.

The story kept my attention while I worked, so in my opinion the story line is still a good one.

Dear Reader,
I am going to go ahead and apologize in advance if this review turns out to be a jumbled mess of words but I am writing while in mourning, so you can forgive me right?
This is the situation. I have had this book on my Kindle for well over a month, but every time I thought to pick it up and start reading, I put it right back down again. I think that somewhere deep in my heart I knew that once I opened and read it, that I would be regretful. Not because it's poorly written, but because I was not ready to let go of Quinn and Janie. Clearly I'm clairvoyant because I'm dying a little inside now that I have finished. I didn't think that it was possibly for me to fall in love with Quinn any more than I already was but, man, did Penny Reid show me.
Getting Quinn's POV in this book threw me right over the edge of obsession. There was something extremely sexy about hearing his subconscious voice speak of his love and attraction to Janie.
I saw someone the other day refer to Penny Reid as the queen of the alpha male and I couldn't agree more. Authors should take note, this is how you write an alpha male. Quinn Sullivan is the type of alpha male that every woman wants in real-life. He knows how to take charge but he would NEVER disregard Janie's feelings in doing so. He's never rude, disgusting or disrespectful to Janie, even when she gets herself in less-than-desirable situations. He doesn't try to control her life or monopolize her time, or try to steer her away from her time with friends. Yes, he does everything in his power to keep her safe, but not by eliminating all outside influence. Janie is his everything and because of that Quinn is everything any real woman wants. Quinn. Is. Everything.
Janie is brilliant, as always. I love her honesty and straightforwardness, even if it isn't always intentional as much as it is out of her tendency to be socially awkward. Nobody is as quirky as Janie and in such a brilliantly amazing way. I want to marry Janie and have her neurotic children.
I also want to have Janie's friends. I don't really need to point out the many reasons but you'll see a perfect example of why when you read this. I mean, when you read about them in Vegas...you'll know.
For the first time while reading a Knitting in the City book I cried. Not because it was sad, but because it was so sweet, so funny, and so incredibly perfect that I didn't want it to end. I just can't let them go. I know it's very likely we'll get glimpses of them in the future but I'm also holding out for a book with a little Quanie in the making. That's not a typo that's what a Quinn/Janie baby would be called.
Holding out for awkward OBGYN appts in the near future,
Jaime

I just can't get through this. DNF at 19% I just don't like Quinn.

Penny Reid is high on my list of favorite new to me authors. She writes quirky characters that will have you howling with laughter. Warning do not read her books in public. In this follow up to Neanderthal Seeks Human we find out just how Quinn gets Janie to marry him. An unlikelier pair you can’t imagine but Penny Reid makes it work, makes it sing. I laughed so hard while reading this that I had to keep a box of tissues handy.

Rounded to 3.5 stars. I had a few problems with this book and the first which were fairly minor but I mostly loved Janie and her girlfriends. Quinn I could take or leave. The first book was better but only by about a half a star.
