Goodreads: Cyber-stalking, drive-bys, drunken text messaging, creating fake email accounts—you’re gonna have to face it, you’re addicted to love.
Sophie isn’t dealing with her breakup well. Dumped by her boyfriend, Eric, for his sexting, D-cupped, young Floozy McSecretary, Sophie leaves Manhattan and lands back in her hometown, crushed and pajama-clad, blaming herself and begging her ex for a second chance.
But when her best friend, Annie, gets in trouble for driving drunk and is forced to go to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, something clicks in Sophie’s strung-out mind. Women need love rehab, she realizes, to help fix the craziness that comes along with falling for someone.
If you start it, they will come. When she opens up her home to the obsessed and lovelorn, Sophie finds a way to help women out there who have overdosed on the wrong men—and she saves herself in the process.
Love is a drug and the only things that can save us are the steps, rules, and one another. Step one: Admit you have a problem, and keep the hell away from Facebook.
Kritters Thoughts: Sophie was recently dumped and she is still not over the guy and the relationship. When her friend has a run in with the police due to alcohol and is given the sentence of attending AA to turn her life around, Sophie is quickly inspired to enter herself into rehab to get over the craziness that has come her way from her break up.
I completely adored this book. I loved all the women that Sophie ended up interacting with and all the stories that came with them. The many different ways a relationship can end and the many ways that women react to those endings - it was great.
I loved that this story followed the typical romance arc where just as you think there is happily ever after there is a speed bump in the road and the reader has to wonder for a minute if it will truly end happy.
This was the best book to curl up with during a month that maybe is focused on love a bit more than usual and see women band together to help each other through life's ups and downs.
Rating: absolutely loved it and want a sequel
