Josh and Hazel's Guide to Not Dating

Product Information

We're living in a depressing world filled with wars, racism and selfishness but people are gonna hate on goofy characters because they don't, what, take life seriously?

Some of my book blogging friends haven’t been super in love with Christina Lauren’s books published after Josh and Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating and claim that this book is the author duo’s best. Josh and Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating makes me want to continue picking up more of Christina Lauren’s books.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. I’m not entirely sure why I keep trying with romance novels because they’re never exactly what I want them to be in the way that other novels can be exactly what I’m looking for even before I know what I’m looking for. Hazel is a third-grade teacher, and she may have more in common with her students than she cares to admit. I realize that finding the perfect person isn't going to be easy for me because I'm a lot to take," she says, "but I'm not going to change just so that I'm more datable. I saw myself and Mom from the outside in a way I hadn't before, like Dad represented this mainstream ideal and she and I were these loud, bouncing yellow dots outside the standard curve.

I love it even more because Hazel told him the same thing, despite having a huge crush on him, when Josh was trying to figure things out with his girlfriend. It just means that we experience life differently, and we deserve people who love us for who we are.

I'm so thrilled that books like this have been a gateway for me to a type of escapism I never thought I would need, but am grateful for none-the-less.

I've wanted to read their books for a while now, and seeing as it is so highly rated, I picked Josh and Hazel's Guide to Not Dating. Hazel and Josh met in college years ago - he was one of the few guys who was cool with her zaniness.

Hazel first me Josh in college when she propositioned him at a frat party and then proceeded to puke on his shows. Josh + Hazels guide to not dating is my new favorite by Christina Lauren and that’s high praise, because I love all of the books I’ve read by them. It was the only thing I thought was distasteful about this book, and maybe (hopefully) it'll be edited out in the final version.Of course she has insecurities like everyone, but it was nice to see a woman not constantly berating herself over everything. These authors could have just as easily said “he said a rude thing” or hell, even “he said a homophobic slur” without actually using the word. Or the time when she was dating one of his roommates, and Josh walked in while the two were using the couch, although not for relaxation.
