I love ironic humor! The funniest romances you could ever wish for have it. Romance and Humor in one book!! Perfect! Marian Keyes is so good at ironic humor! But another equally good at that art form is Claudia Carroll! You just have to love her books and she also have the funniest titles on her books. It couldn´t be any better if you ask me. This author might also fit in the chick lit category, but to be honest with you I am not really sure what that genre include. So for me this is contemporary romance light. Not to much focus on the sex part (sometimes no sex at all or only implied). The focus is more on the romancing part. Or the hundred ways our heroine can fuck up a relationship with the opposite sex! Very funny books to read if you ask me. Funny yet very sweet. You can read more about Claudia Carroll on goddreads and on Claudiacarroll.net
