Am I Allergic to Men?-Bailey-Adult Humor-Available Now

Am I Allergic to Men by Kristen Bailey is one of those books with which I have a love/hate relationship. That makes this book review difficult to write.

There’s so much to love, but I hate it because it’s the end of the series. Why? Because all of the Callaghan sisters have stories and it is done.

I’m sad. And I’m not ready to say goodbye to this wonderful group of siblings. Over the five-book series, they have come to feel like family.

It’s a good thing that Ms. Bailey throws everything imaginable into this book because it was her last chance.

First off, I do have to preface the rest of this review by stating that I have been looking forward to Lucy’s story. As the youngest, she has been in the periphery of the other sisters’ stories, and her character is easily the most engaging of all.

Now, I am not going to give away how the author relays Lucy’s story, but I will say it completely threw me for a loop. It was nothing that I expected, but everything I wanted for Lucy.

The story kicks off in a raucous manner, with the most entertaining bar fight I have ever read. And the rest of the story doesn’t disappoint either.

Filled with trademark bluntness, hilarious situations, and a dose of seriousness, this story is amazing from start to finish. In addition to the unfiltered craziness, there are also heartfelt moments and emotional realizations

Honestly, I do not want to give away anything from Lucy’s story, because it is not what you think it will be. Because of that, it is perfect for Lucy.

Her free spirit, charm (yes, even the bluntness of it), and wicked humor are on full display, but we also see her sensitive side. We also get a generous dose of the other sisters as the family comes together in a time of trouble.

One thing I take from this story is that Dad Callaghan is a saint for dealing with this crew. And now we know where the daughters get their feistiness. Mom Callaghan is a force to deal with.

I could go on and on about this story, but I will just repeat that it is not what you expect, but it is perfect for Lucy.

Seriously, I am looking forward to whatever this author has up her sleeve next. She has set the bar pretty high with the Callaghan crew.

I do recommend getting to know the sisters before starting Am I Allergic to Men? So, check out my book reviews of the other books in the series from Kristen Bailey:

• Can I Give My Husband Back?
• Did My Love Life Shrink in the Wash?
