How hard could one year of swipes and matches and awkward first dates be?

Title: The Magnolia Chronicles:
Adventures in Modern Dating

Author: Kate Canterbary

Release Date: April 02, 2019

My mother’s New Year’s resolution for me was simple: make a serious effort at putting myself out there and dating again, and do it for one full year.

Or until I fell in love. Whichever came first.

How hard could one year of swipes and matches and awkward first dates be?

In a word: bad.

In nine words: bad and also hilarious, demoralizing, exhausting, and ridiculously amusing.

But the only thing worse than dating in the era of hookup apps and unsolicited dick pics is the absolute whole-life-flail of falling in love.

Review by Susan:

I love this author, She is an automatic one click for me even without reading the blurb! We have met Magnolia in the author’s Walsh series, (though this is a standalone) and I have been on tender hooks waiting for the author to tell her story, what a story it is!

We get to follow GiGi as she goes through the trials and tribulations of online dating, the good, bad and everything in between. We also get to catch up with our favourite family, the Walsh’s, they help to enhance the story and also bring some funny moments. I loved that we get to see Magnolia blossom and bloom over the course of the book, she learns to love herself and figures out who she is and what she deserves in life. I loved both Ben and Rob, they both brought so much to the story and both have moments that make you swoon. The epilogue was killer! I hope we don’t have to wait to long for another fabulous read from this author, wish I could give more than 5 Stars.

THE MAGNOLIA CHRONICLES: EPISODE ONE

Kate Canterbary doesn’t have it all figured out, but this is what she knows for sure: spicy-ass salsa and tequila solve most problems, living on the ocean–Pacific or Atlantic–is the closest place to perfection, and writing smart, smutty stories is a better than any amount of chocolate. She started out reporting for an indie arts and entertainment newspaper back when people still read newspapers, and she has been writing and surreptitiously interviewing people—be careful sitting down next to her on an airplane—ever since.

Kate lives on the water in New England with Mr. Canterbary and the Little Baby Canterbary, and when she isn’t writing sexy architects, she’s scheduling her days around the region’s best food trucks.
