REVIEW: How To Date A Douchebag: The Learning Hours by Sara Ney


How to Date a Douchebag: The Learning Hours by [Ney, Sara]


The Learning Hours by Sara Ney


He's not a douchebag; but that doesn't stop his friends from turning him into one.

MY FRIENDS WANT ME TO GET LAID.

So much so that they plastered my ugly mug all over campus, in bold printed letters:

Are you the lucky lady who's going to break our roommate's cherry?
Him: socially awkward man with average-sized penis looking for willing sexual partner. You: must have a pulse. He will reciprakate with oral. Text him at: 555-254-5551

The morons can't even spell. And the texts I've been receiving are what wet dreams are made of. But I'm not like these douchebags, no matter how hard they try to turn me into one.

THIS ISN'T THE KIND OF ATTENTION I WANT.

One text stands out from hundreds. One number I can't bring myself to block. She seems different. Hotter, even in black and white.

However, after seeing her in person, I know she's not the girl for me. But my friends won't let up--they just don't get it. Douchebags or not, there's one thing they'll never understand: GIRLS DON'T WANT ME. 

Especially her. 




Caroline's Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



So many fans of this series (including moi) have been chomping at the bit for this third book. So many of us had theories about who this book was going to be about, so I absolutely hooted with laughter when I read the dedication! 

This book was a fantastic follow-up to the first two books. The author turned stereotypes inside out and delivered a novel that was sweet, amusing, so sexy, and so swoony.

"I'm the last guy women notice."

The hero is such a solid, upstanding, dependable, albeit somewhat awkward guy. He doesn't pretend to be what he isn't. He's real and he's comfortable with the person that he is. Although, he's often adorably clueless! It takes a woman, who is his complete opposite, to discover the man beyond the facade - to learn his heart and soul.

"After dating man-children who care only about two things - sex and themselves - I'm ready to find something more meaningful."

The heroine is matter-of-factly self-aware but hugely likeable, and I adored how the guy made her question everything she thought she found attractive. He's different from any guy she's ever known and he thoroughly piques her interest. In fact, she's been waiting for a man like him to come along, and with a bit of patience and nurturing, shows him through actions what a desirable and gorgeous guy he is.

Both characters absolutely blossom throughout the course of the story, as they learn things about themselves, as well as each other. The hero truly comes in his own and, wowzers, he's totally to die for! The heroine is all heart and so certain that she wants him that she won my heart over completely, too. These two really made me smile and swoon! 

Fabulous, heart-melting story!
