Just in case you wanted to know what sort of cream cheese a rock star gets on their bagel, it is herb and garlic.  This sounds goofy, but I really liked that part, haha.Anyways!I love these coffee shop girl books.  They're a lot of fun, and always so interesting.  I think the theme is really neat, and the different guys that the different girls meet is fun.  This is one of many, so if you like it (like I did), then you have a lot of others waiting.  I've read a couple of these now, and I liked this one the most so far.The thing I liked best about this one was the casual start to it.  Like... the girls meet the rock guys, and it starts off basically how you'd think almost anyone meeting a celebrity would be like.  It's not immediate attraction or anything like that.  Hanna is somewhat awestruck, but she's just doing her job, getting coffee and bagels and everything and...Then Bo offers to pay for her and her friend's way to see one of his shows.  "No strings attached, no groupie sex required."  I laughed at that part, haha.I really liked that part, too.  I think it was different from the norm in books like these, except maybe not actually different from what really happens?  I mean, sure, don't get me wrong, I doubt rock stars often randomly buy people airfare, hotel rooms, and tickets to their shows, but I don't actually think they just sleep with people randomly in one night stands, either.  There's got to be some build up there, right?  Or at least that's what the hopeful romantic in me wishes for.There's build up in this story, but it's got all the great trappings of a really good rock star romance, too.  The casual setting at the start mixes wonderfully with the extravagant later on, and just completely made the whole story for me.  I loved the dialogue and the relatively down-to-earth feel of everyone, too.  It's realistic in a weird sort of way, you know?Definitely a great addition to the coffee shop books!  Highly recommended and if you liked this one, I'd suggest checking out some of the others, too.  There really is something for everyone with these.
