Review for Man Flu by Shari J. Ryan

Man FluMan Flu by Shari J. Ryan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This review is for “Man Flu,” (Man Cave Series/2) by Shari J. Ryan

Again, I should probably at this point, just title every review for Shari J. Ryan, from this point on “Just. Read. Her. Books. Trust Me.” This sassy & adorable story deserves 5 stars, and here’s why…

Plot: So, here’s what I have to say about the plot… If this was say, 10, 15, 20 years ago, I’d honestly call B.S. on it. BUT, that’s just one of the areas Shari shines in. For this storyline, as well as many of her modern-day (ones), she truly is in touch with the current times, the audacious behavior, and acts of random strangers, etc. As well as technology’s influence over our lives. And she brings these aspects to life so seamlessly, with apparent ease and lack of effort… like it’s completely normal and integrated into our culture, to where I feel like I’m still stuck in 1980-something for not knowing. Lol.

Characters: In Man Flu, you’ve got an excellent small crowd of nicely fleshed-out characters, the main two being Hannah and Logan. I could EAT their chemistry, it was that good. But I want to say I ended up feeling sorry for Rick(the ex-husband), I ADORED Hannah’s daughter, Cora, and Hannah’s assistant, Brielle, was an excellent supporting character that really held her own place & deserves a shout out.

The Writing: From Page ONE--- I was HOOKED. It is all told in single person POV, Hannah’s, and I FREAKING LOVED her voice! Like, I’m pretty sure she was sitting next to me, or on the phone telling me this story. The whole pleasurable read felt more like two girlfriends chatting it up about the last few months of zany drama. Pure writing perfection.

In Case You Wanted to Know: There is a brief (but adequate) sex scene, but- hehehe- butt- there is a TON of horribly laughable moments. I haven’t laughed so much at a character’s unfortunate luck since Shari’s “Queen of the Throne” (the book that made me fall in love with SJR, to begin with).

Overall: Hannah is newly divorced from a cheating husband who still likes to make her life hell, in any way possible. He is still the typical chauvinistic d-bag, and she is the poster child for a single mother, with a corporate job, trying to make it in a Man’s world. But, like most women, she proves her worth, and then some, flawlessly, and comes out on top, with her well-deserved HEA. Keep them coming, Shari!

    Why do reviews?

    Well, I own over 6000 books.
    Most of them are non-fiction, since I have an obsession with knowledge.
    But oh, how I love a good story.
    I've decided to devote an entire Blog, just for books.
    ​
    Here, you will find book reviews for Fiction, in almost every genre.
    I'll also be sharing reviews for the too many to count
    Nonfiction books I am constantly dumping into my head.
    As well as Announcements etc. for New Releases
    from fellow authors.

    How do I decide what rating... 

    For Fiction books, it's either a 5, 4, or a 3-star. That's it. If it doesn't qualify for at least a  3-star rating, I will NOT post that kind of a review. I either REALLY loved/liked it and it was written well, regardless if it wasn't something "up my alley" so-to-speak, OR it was okay, but could have used some more details, or fix the plot holes, etc. I WILL NOT rate low for spelling and/or grammar, editing mistakes. If they are plentiful, I will send the author a polite email to let them know. Hopefully the author will listen and address the problems.

    For Nonfiction, sorry, but here I have to be a bit more discerning. I will rate 1-5 stars, according to the layout of the information, the quality of the information, as well as any editing mistakes, etc. I personally feel that a Nonfiction book is there to provide information, and if it is not delivered in a clear and concise manner, too much confusion will ensue and cause potentially horrible embarrassments or even fatal mistakes.
