Perfectly Adequate

De: Jewel E. Ann

Narrado por: Sienna Voss, Max Meyers

Dorothy Mayhem is a nursing student, patient transporter, reckless driver, and emu owner.

She knows she isn't like other girls. Neurotypical people are nothing if not predictable, though, and that's why she has made a hobby of studying their behavior through books and TV. It helps her fit in with her peers when she can emulate them.

But nothing can prepare her for Dr. Elijah Hawkins. He's a single dad, a brilliant pediatric oncologist, widely agreed to be the sexiest doctor at the hospital, and entirely unpredictable.

Though getting to know the man behind the chiseled features and top-notch reputation would be her pleasure, Dorothy misunderstands one attempt after another to ask her out. Instead of dates with Elijah, she finds herself on a series of playdates with his son. Roman is cute, sweet, and brings her unexpectedly closer to his father every day.

Dorothy Mayhem is about to find out that the only thing more unpredictable than a child is love.

Fans of The Kiss Quotient will love Perfectly Adequate, a heartfelt and hilarious journey along the human spectrum from USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Jewel E. Ann.

cute

This is a cute story that is a little different than Jewel's normal books. It took me a little bit to get into it but by about 25% in I was more interested.

Perfectly Adequate 10/10

Jewel E Anne has a gift. There isn’t an author like her. The way she creates complex characters and intricate story lines with an insane about of humor and heart is beyond me, and she gets it right EVERY TIME! This book did not disappoint. I laughed out loud so many times, but I also got teary eyed and felt sadness at times. I’m not one who gives details in reviews because I want you to read it and enjoy every single written (or in this case, narrated) word. Speaking of narration 10/10! I’m such a fan. I wholeheartedly recommend this book. It’s everything entertainment should be. Well done!

Perfectly Awesome

I read and have re-read this book but I needed to listen to it. The two narrators hit it out of the park. I can’t wait to now re-listen.

Great book

All Characters were bright and funny. Dorothy was sweet and complex, yet simple. I loved how Dr Hawkins loved Dorothy

Could not stay interested

This one didn't hit me in the feels. Very slow to play out . Narration didn't draw me in or bring characters to life for me. I was hoping the subject matter would be insightful and interesting, but it moved so slowly I couldn't stay engaged. I enjoy this author a lot, so I'm not put off. This one just didn't hit the mark for me.
