Well, after a seriously long absence from blogging (not from reading mind you) I am back at it, trying to diminish the stack of books waiting for their blog highlight. While a few books got lost in transition, I hope to blog about my summer reads sometime soon. For the most part, the reading has been light, fluffy, and easy to pick up where I left off. With a new baby in the house, having a book with an easy plot line seemed important for the time being!

Cabot, Meg. Boy Meets Girl. New York: Harper Collins, 2004.

When Kate Mackenzie hits rock bottom (leaving her boyfriend of 10 YEARS because he won’t commit) she is living on the couch of her best friend, and co-worker Jen Sadler, making fun of her awful boss, and her even more awful boyfriend, when something even worse happens – she gets fired for doing something she didn’t do! Hired to get to the bottom is very cute (and single) lawyer Mitch Hertzog, who unfortunately also happens to be the brother of her bosses soon to be husband…

Written in a combination of diary/email/list formats, this book is cute. Not perfect, but a easy read with plenty of endearing characters. Boy Meets Girl would be great for the beach, or for a long trip.
