Made in Manhattan by Lauren Layne
3.0
This book was an adorable, gender-bent retelling of My Fair Lady. It is a very easy read, and I flew through it. My issue with the book is that most of the struggle happened off the pages. The struggle is where most of the intrigue and connection to the characters comes from, and because this book was missing it I never felt the deep connection with them. The tension that I have come to love in romance novels only picked up at the end of the book. I do admit that by the end I was reading as fast as I could and feeling that pull that I love. The epilogue wrapped the book up in a sweet and nostalgic way. The book definitely feels like an old romance movie, and it was a wonderful book to read on my holiday break when nostalgia is exactly what I'm looking for.
