Review: Easily Amused by Karen McQuestion



My Review: I absolutely loved this novel. McQuestion captures the true essence of what Wisconsin neighborhoods are like.  It seems like all neighborhoods are made up of; the nosey rosy neighbor, the mystery neighbor, the helper neighbor and the antisocial neighbor along with many others.  McQuestion brings together a neighborhood filled with some unforgettable characters in an outstanding novel about family, love and friendship.  When Lola inherits a house in the suburbs she has no idea what is in store for her.  But her neighbors know things about Lola and her family and they all help guide Lola through her crazy day-to-day life. This lighthearted, enjoyable romantic comedy will have you rooting for love and will have you laughing aside Lola and her crazy cast of neighbors, family and friends.
I  highly recommend it and rate it 4.5 stars.  
Book Details:  When twenty-nine-year-old Lola Watson unexpectedly inherits a rambling house in the suburbs, she thinks it just may be the cherry on a banner year. After all, she’s happily single, with fabulous friends and her dream job working at a popular magazine. Life is perfect—until her new neighbors make her their new “project,” a heartbroken high school friend crashes indefinitely at her house, and her younger sister announces she’s getting married…on Lola’s thirtieth birthday. Suddenly Lola’s not so keen on her newfound domestic bliss. But when she meets handsome, mysterious Ryan Moriarty, Lola dares to hope she’s found the perfect guy to one-up her sister and add a little spice back into her life.
This light-hearted romantic comedy from Karen McQuestion is headlined by a charming cast of characters, led by the self-deprecatingly funny Lola. Breezy and fun, Easily Amused serves as a gentle, often amusing reminder that love can often be found in the place we least expect—under our very noses.
