4/5
PWP where the W does stand for "with" but pretty loosely. 

I started Girl's Weekend a few years ago when I was still deciding whether or not I liked monster romance, but put it down before finishing. Now that I have decided that I DO in fact love a good monster romance, I picked it back up and very much enjoyed the read. 

This book is a great introduction to Cambric Creek, the town where most of Nascosta's stories take place, despite focusing on the nearby resort town of nudist orcs. The characters we meet in this book are very lovable, and the plot (as little as there really is) is positive and focuses on women who are rejecting the expectations society places on them while embracing what brings them joy.  I certainly preferred some of the girl's storylines over others, but given that we are following three characters, it was bound to happen!

I'd recommend this book as a litmus test if you're looking at getting into monster romance (particularly if you're looking to branch out from vampires and werewolves) as it is relatively tame, but also contains many of the genre's tropes. It also works well as a light read for those who already enjoy the genre and it makes a great introduction to C.M. Nascosta's work. 

Overall I found the book to be funny, positive, and quite spicy.
