It's Not PMS, It's You

By: Rich Amooi

Narrated by: Carly Robins

Length: 8 hrs and 3 mins

Publisher's summary

Ruth "Ruthless" Harper is on the verge of becoming managing partner at her all-male consulting firm and she won't let anything stand in her way. That includes men, relationships, and that dreaded F word, feelings - distractions she eliminated long ago.

After the worst day ever (a near-death experience and a public wedgie, for starters), Ruth realizes she doesn't want to live and die alone. She puts together a business plan to find the perfect man and dives head first into the murky online dating pool. All she wants is a high-powered executive who understands how important her career is. If only it were that easy.

Problem is most men are intimidated by Ruth's confidence and shocked by her bluntness. The exception being her landscape designer, Nick, whose cool demeanor and unsolicited dating advice are driving her nuts. He's the antithesis of the business-oriented man Ruth envisions for herself, so why do all signs keep pointing back to him?

Just okay

Started out with a cute story. But it just quickly turned into a cliche, predictable story. I didn’t like the main character at first. Being a strong woman doesn’t mean you have to belittle and be rude to every man you meet. The dates started funny but the characters were too exaggerated, so that got tiring. The epilogue wrapped everything up that could have actually been written as part of the story. The characters were not believable to me.

Love this story

What a wonderful treat this story is! I loved every word. Funny, believable, romantic, HEA. And while the narrator herself isn’t horrible (meaning I could still listen with enjoyment), it’s the first time I wished for dual narration. The narrator doesn’t even try to read Nick’s story in a male voice, so it’s a little disconcerting and confusing when you remember she’s reading his chapters. Fortunately, those were few and far between. I may read the story next time, instead of listening, but either choice is rewarding.

The only reason the performance doesn’t get 5 stars is not because of the narrator

The story was fun. The narrator is good for what she does, but she is not a man, and therefore, even though it wasn’t her decision, she shouldn’t be doing the duet portion of the narration. She’s really great narrator, but the duet narration should be done by mail in my opinion, the story is great. The author has some funny things in there hits a lot of amazing points and captures a great love story. The only thing that takes away from this audiobook is the fact that the narrator is male and female for the male chapters. There are only a few but to me it’s distracting, it was the point of view of only the woman.

Lots of laughs

Enjoyed the book, lots of laughs, great flow in story, happy ending without excessive drama

Loved the Story

I loved this book! It was good clean fun. I found myself laughing out loud more than a few times. I am putting it on my top favorites.

A dose of much needed humor!

I absolutely love this book. It gave me many laughs, which is something that I. Desperately needed it's good medicine. I'd like to read more by this author.

Good CLEAN fun!

A great story without tons of descriptive sex! Thoroughly enjoyed the story. The only drawback was the narrator. It was difficult any times to tell if a male or female was supposed to be speaking. I like to multitask, while listening, but that didn’t work well with this story.

Lots of songs in my head

I enjoyed the book, enjoy the humor, nice feelgood story for romance lovers. loved Grandma, thought she was a bit over the top.

Light hearted and funny

keep me laughing and wanting more... very entertaining! didn't want it to end, you'll be hooked from the very start.

One of My Favorite Books

I could read this story over and over again and again. It was my first Rich Amooi book I read, so I couldn't wait to get the Audiobook when it came out. It a great book with great qualities and hilarious hijinks. Carly Robins is okay but how can anyone be bad at narrating any of Rich Amooi books because they're all so well written and they all have good clean humor. Bagel Barny is awesome and funny because he is so clueless. I will definitely be reading this book over and over again.
