Next thing you know, I’d read all the books in the series up to that point, and I was tapping my foot waiting for the next book to be released. In for a penny, in for a pound (See what I did there?). The titles seemed kind of weird, but I needed more of this woman’s work! I bought Neanderthal Seeks Human (Book 1, Knitting in the City) and even added on the Audible Whyspersync. Lo and behold! I discovered she has a series of romantic comedies about a group of women in a knitting circle. What does a strung out book junkie do? Run to Goodreads, of course. The plot is addictive, and I tore my way through the series. Little did I know at the time that intelligent, quirky characters are a hallmark of Penny Reid’s books. I was drawn to the female main character in the book who is brilliant, hilarious, and extremely awkward. It definitely was a case of insta-love, because I was immediately blown away by Penny Reid’s fluid, witty, and extremely thoughtful writing style. Attraction is book one in the Laws of Chemistry trilogy. And it was actually only three years ago, but it seems like a lifetime ago that I found a pot of gold in the form of a YA book titled Attraction by a new-to-me author, Penny Reid. Many, many years ago, when I was but a wee lass… Where the hell did the Irish come from? I have no idea.
