Review: the weird and wonderful state of Kentucky...in romance form
Rating: 4 out of 5

Three things, I had never considered prior to reading My Bluegrass Baby by the fantabulous Molly Harper - that I could claim programing my Tivo on my resume (I'm sure that parlays into something workplace related), the number of cartoon characters who run-around with no pants on (aka, the Pantless Pantheon) and Squirrel genitalia (as my friend Toni would say, its all about the nuts ; ) But when I reading Molly Harpers newest contemporary romance, all three of those things, plus many more were mentioned. There is just something quirky about the way she writes, that makes you feel right at home with the characters. I loved how she managed to work so many weird and wonderful facts about Kentucky in the book (but don't worry, I'm not going to spoil the surprise for anyone, since you guys need to have a chance to read it). I do have to admit that I'm normally not a fan of workplace romance type books, it is just a trope that I normally don't enjoy, but I think that Molly did a great job balancing the line between funny and the awkwardness that so often ensures in situations like that.Anyways, i could probably amble on for hours about how much I enjoy Molly Harper's work - but I won't  All I can say is that if you haven't read (or listened) to any of her stuff yet, then you really need to. If you are looking for lite funny PNR or entertaining contemporary romance, she has something for you. After reading this, she has pretty much sealed her spot on my auto-buy/auto-listen list. Now I can start stalking her for new work. Overall, a solid 4 stars. Oh yeah, and I totally have a new saying, I've been known to comment on my lack of a brain mouth barrier, but I think atrophied verbal filter sounds soo much better!!
