Neanderthal seeks Human - Penny Reid

There are three things you need to know about Janie Morris: 1) She is incapable of engaging in a conversation without volunteering TMTI (Too Much Trivial Information), especially when she is unnerved, 2) No one unnerves her more than Quinn Sullivan, and 3) She doesn't know how to knit.

After losing her boyfriend, apartment, and job in the same day, Janie Morris can't help wondering what new torment fate has in store. To her utter mortification, Quinn Sullivan- aka Sir McHotpants- witnesses it all then keeps turning up like a pair of shoes you lust after but can't afford. The last thing she expects is for Quinn- the focus of her slightly, albeit harmless, stalkerish tendencies- to make her an offer she can't refuse. 

My thoughts:
I wanted to read this one ever since I first heard of it. And it was good, it was weird, it was quirky and again, so weird!. Sometimes I did not understand of she was a bit daft, if he was a bit crazy, but who cares, it made it funny!

Janie is awkward, she talks too much about everything as she knows, every detail about everything..I love her. She does not see herself was pretty since she is too tall, too weird (and yes she is weird.)

Quinn is hot, he seems to be after her..or not? He is nice, protective, alpha (yes I am back to loving those). And just mmmmmmm.

A hoot. Yes the book is funny, amusing, strangely wonderfully weird. Two characters falling in love. It takes a while (cos she is weird ;) There is even a bit of drama. And stupid ex is still around and more I wont mention.

Conclusion:
All in all, fun and cute (love that word and parentheses today it seems:)
