How I Burnt Down My Kitchen, Almost Died on a Boat, and (Finally) Found Love

Written by Riley Smith

Narrated by Olivia Jackson

Anne Baits is living the life she always dreamed of. She’s in California, she owns a bookstore, she spends most of her time either reading or talking about books. She’s got a kick ass best friend named Kay who gives her all the socialization she really needs. It’s a peaceful existence that she has very little chance of screwing up, and that’s how she likes it.

But lately, Anne Baits has been feeling down. In an attempt to turn her mood around, she dives into her favorite book, that ultimate classic of literature: Pride and Prejudice. It’s never failed to cheer her up before, but today, it’s not doing the trick. And that’s when she realizes… she needs to find her own Mr. Darcy, but she’s been looking in all the wrong places!

Her friend Kay kindly jumps in to help her out, and what follows is a screwball adventure through LA’s hottest nightclubs, a meatloaf disaster, and a fire walk that Anne would never forget — except she can’t remember it at all. But as Anne’s schemes to find love blow up in her face (sometimes literally), and Kay’s there to clean up the mess, she might realize she never needed to go looking at all.

[Franka · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

No, no, no! Plot was too weak, happy ending was rushed and it didn't make any sense. She forgot? Forgot?? Really???

[Crystal Rotich · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Awesome if you like LGBT romcom. I don't do I stopped when she started looking at her best friend. Otherwise good read
