I ll give it a three just because I loved it when I was younger But if I read it for the first time now, I would ve given it a two.I still liked the story But the writing was awful I read the book in swedish, so I don t know if it was just the translation or the authors writing And since it s from the nineties I can t comment on the outdated swedish language.I guess I hadn t read that many books with good writing at the time Now, that s a different story.

In the beginning I found this to be pretty interesting H thinks he is in love with his best friend s wife and h best friend s sister intervenes They have known each other for years and have never gotten along The the constant back and forth bickering finally wore me down The book s focus was so much on their battles that the romance part did not come through for me The childish arguments and constantly nitpicking and trying to always top the other s insults did not make for an HEA to me.

.

Funny and cute Some sweet moments The endless bickering was endless It never stopped This would have been a much better book if they could have actually stopped fighting for one freaking moment.

one of the funniest books i ve ever read i keep re reading it
