Evvie Drake Starts Over

“Evvie Drake Starts Over” has been compared to “Emily Oliphant is Totally Fine.” Here's how those two books are similar: they are books, the main character's name starts with an E, they are fiction, and the authors are woman.

Where “Emily” is full of humor, well-drawn characters, and a love story that makes sense, “Evvie” is full of dullsville characters and dialogue, especially the main characters, and an insta-love story. I have made it a practice to stop reading or listening to books if they aren't doing it for me, and it is time to stop biting myself with “Evvie.”
