This has been a year where my favourite writing duo have had exactly what I've wanted to read: light, funny contemporary romance that will help me get through this horrid year. Josh + Hazel's Guide to Not Dating is one of their older books, but … Continue reading Book Review: Josh and Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating
