Just My Type is a super-cute rom-com, full of laughs, hilarious moments and ridiculous situations. All in the best possible light, of course. I adored The Year of Saying Yes so there was no way I was going to miss out on reading the next book by Hannah Doyle!

This is a fun, easy to read while on holiday type book. It was a joy to read and one that I could not put down. We follow Jasmine, a fantastic photographer who is used by her boss for her skills and who constantly ends up on dates with the wrong men because they are her "type on paper". 

So she is set a challenge, seven dates with seven different men who are not her usually 'type'. 

And to be fair, the men she dated were not usually. All of them pleasant, but some of them did have an unusual take on what is considered a normal date... And their understanding of what was acceptable lead to some very funny moments. 

Along the way, not only does Jasmine find out what her type really is, she also gains confidence in herself. Enough that she starts taking risks with her dreams, and those risks pay off in more that one way. 

In the end, this is a journey, it is about growth, about taking risks. If you do not take a chance how do you know what you are missing out on. How do you know if you can achieve so much more? At the beginning Jasmine was limiting herself but throughout she starts to realise the only limitation is herself. Sometimes you just have to go for it.

I found this book highly amusing and entertaining. I loved Jasmine's character and the situations she got herself in. A great light-hearted read.

Well this was an absolute treat!!! I dived into this story headfirst and didn't come up for air until the concluding pages. It was an outright laugh a minute and I found myself giggling into my kindle at the digital turn of each and every page. This is my first encounter with the work of Hannah Doyle and I know for a fact it won't be my last.....her writing is honest and hilarious but holds an underlying current of heart and soul to create a truly rounded story.

Now we all know that dating in the twenty first century holds many trials and tribulations and a disastrous dating history is the norm. Meet Jasmine, a hard working girl, chasing her dreams and trying (and failing) to find the one. But as the saying goes 'if you always do what you've always done, then you will always get what you've always got' then what's a girl to do but shake things up a bit to get fresh results. Cue, best friend Mila's intervention into Jasmine's penchant for falling for the same type and off we go on a globe trotting, rollercoaster ride of seven dates to find the one.This narrative is a far cry from churning out a string of disastrous dates in a cookie cutter format. Oh no....it's an entertaining showcase of men, that fit a variety of categories when it comes to 'type on paper' and I for one loved the melange of men on offer.

Jasmine's disastrous dating debacle wasn't the only story line weaving its way through the book as we discover her fierce aversion to even thinking thoughts of her father. This heartfelt and emotional thread, that I won't dive into details about, creates a deeper and meaningful layer to this bright book, which works together to produce a story that is truly special.

Just My Type is a witty and wonderful showcase of striving to live a best life but learning to love yourself in the process. This was a dream of a read on every level and I know I can't do the book the justice it deserves in a few paragraphs so all I will say is download it today and dive in....you simply have to meet Jasmine and the gang - you won't be disappointed in the slightest.

I guess everybody has a type. You know the feeling when 'he' enters a room and your eyes and body betray you and your head is outnumbered even though a voice is yelling inside you to not go there again and have your heart broken.

Time for a u-turn, right? When you head off for pastures new, you realize that the world is at your feet. You only have to take the bull by the horns and take a leap.

This is a story about finding your way in life and standing up for yourself, about putting the past behind you and looking forward and about being on the right path to happiness and love.

The book put a smile on my face and made me see that sometimes you need to step away from what you thought was the right thing because you have been doing it for years already. Sometimes you have to believe more in yourself and just go for it.

A very enjoyable story. 4 stars.

Thank you, Hannah Doyle and Random Things Tours

Jasmine is in a relationship and right now she's expecting that her boyfriend is going to propose on the next date. However, this date goes belly - up and unfortunately for our heroine, she finds herself single again. Jasmine's best friend Mila claims it's because she dates only "her type" guys, and maybe she should simply go for one that, on paper at least, is not her type at all? So she sets Jasmine on a 7 date challenge - dating out of her comfort zones and maybe, probably finding The One?

Jasmine's job was really interesting - she was a photographer to a superstar blogger so on one hand it was such a brilliant, glamorous job, visiting different countries and providing so many possibilities. On the other hand, she had a real boss from hell, guys, who was belittling her and expecting wonders or burdened Jasmine with tasks almost impossible to accomplish. I think the author has really well captured the feelings of Jasmine here, when she didn't know what to do, when she didn't pluck up the courage to take matters in her hands, and as much as I wanted her to tell her boss to go to hell, I also understood that she was scared, that she was afraid what the future is going to bring. It was nice to see Jasmine's journey here, the change in her, her growing in confidence, of course with some help here and there - but who helped her and why and how? *you must read for yourself* *wink*

This book, just like Hannah Doyle's debut novel, started very, very promising, then went a bit downhill and then came back to being hilarious and warm. By downhill I don't mean that it was flat or not hooking, because it was, I just had a feeling that the story lost its impact in the middle, that's all. I also had problems with the main character at the beginning, and I swear guys, I've already started to panic because, Hannah Doyle's book, right, and what is happening? I don't know, Jasmine was somehow too shallow, too obsessed with finding the right boyfriend, too focused on her "type" - probably this is why I had this feeling of her being too shallow. But then it changed, she changed, and I've finished this book feeling like Jasmine's best friend, so there.

There are so many different books with characters going on dates, and so it is a real trial for the author to write a unique, hilarious blind date that hasn't been written yet! "Just My Type" provides us with series of such (unfortunate) dates and ridiculous situations but they were much more original and better I could have expected, so hats off to Hannah Doyle for this! The guys were so different, and the dates were so different, and it wasn't too cheesy, too meh, too schmaltzy, no, the dates were so enjoyable, the guys hilarious and I enjoyed every single moment of them. But oh my, how glad am I that I don't have to go on dates anymore...

I had a feeling that the book is aimed rather at younger audience than yours truly writing this review but nevertheless I simply loved this story. It was my kind of humour and I liked how light - hearted and easy it was. Perhaps there weren't many life changing turns and twists but still, little things happened here and there that were surprising and often made me go "oh no!" There was actually much more to this story than meet the eye. I really, really like Hannah Doyle's writing style. It is light - hearted, chatty, flows effortlessly, and it's full of humour and great one - liners. The way she describes her characters and events allows you to immediately feel drawn in, to feel comfortable with the book and the storyline. Altogether, "Just My Type" was a funny, sharp and very up - to - date story about learning things about yourself, pushing your boundaries, about facing challenges and finding love where we don't expect to find it. Recommended!

A light fun read, possibly should be aimed more at the younger end of reads , say early 20s but still entertaining and a good story

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

You might be looking at the blurb and thinking that this is just another one of those always funny rom coms where the main character goes on a series of unfortunate dates with completely ridiculous situations where you end up rolling you eyes and being thankful you aren't on Tinder yourself!

Well if you were thinking that - then stop as this is so much more original than that, and the dates involved well I loved every single one of those men! It is though still really funny, but it is so much more than that.

For most of the book I was wondering just what was so awful that Jasmine couldn't speak or think about her dad. I had jumped to what I thought was a logical conclusion to be relieved that I was very wrong, and very surprised.

It's a story where Mila, Jasmine's best friend insists that Jasmine go on seven dates all with men who don't fit her normal dating "type on paper", convinced that is where she is going wrong. Watching Jasmine not only date outside her comfort zone, but also gain confidence, and start making the most of her working life too is really encouraging to see.

I loved that due to her being a photographer to a superstar blogger, she was getting to visit assorted countries, but the travel lover in me would have loved to spend more time in each destination, but the quick glimpses were definitely good and gave a good feel for each country.

The men she dates, well you may not come across all of them yourselves, but they didn't feel too stereotypical either, but just really great blokes with some incredibly interesting ideas for their dates.

This is the second book I've read of Hannah Doyle's and just like The Year of Saying Yes, I could barely put it down and was enjoying every last word of it.

I found it the perfect book to read in my garden at the start of the Easter heatwave! I can't wait to see what this talented author writes next.

Thank you to Netgalley and Headline for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.

This book would be best aimed at late teens/early twenties rather than women's fiction as advertised. The main character is shallow and .I didn't warm to her at all throughout the entire book. I really wanted to enjoy this book because the author has been praised so highly but I was left feeling very old (I am 28), very uninterested and very flat.

An fun and enjoyable romcom. If you liked the book ‘It started with a Tweet’ by Anna Bell, this is the book for you. At first I thought it was going to be predictable but little things happen throughout to keep it interesting. Will definitely read more by the author.

A fun and entertaining read.

After yet another break-up with someone she thought was her perfect type, Jasmine's best friend Mila decides she needs to try a 7 date challenge. This is dating people who aren't her type.

As the story unfolds you learn more about her family, and maybe why she is looking for the perfect man. But will she find him at the end of the 7 date challenge!
