Review: Molly Harper and Amanda Ronconi = a literary match
Rating: 5 out of 5

I listened to the audio (Audible, by Amazon) performance of this book.I LOVED this first book in a new series by Molly Harper.MY BLUEGRASS BABY is SO Molly Harper, I would've known who had written it, even if her name wasn't on it.  It's snarky, sarcastic, hilarious, fun, entertaining...and all of this is done so incredibly well by Amanda Ronconi, I see why she's the voice actor of choice for all of Molly's books.This intro to a new series is contemporary, without elements of paranormal (which Molly does very, very well).  I found myself empathizing painfully well with Sadie (though I don't have the same job, lifestyle, connections, profession, or even state of the union).  Molly is a master of writing empathetic characters, whose emotions resonate with readers/ listeners.  I thoroughly enjoyed watching the war between Josh Vaughn and Sadie Hutchins escalate and morph and include the obvious attraction.  It was so rewarding watching them fall for each other....and with the tale told entirely from Sadie's point of view, it was great SEEING Josh's motivation, choices, dilemmas through Sadie's eyes.Highly recommended for fans of contemporary romance, fans of Molly Harper's work, and everyone in between.  Enjoy!
