Usually I am a massive Mhairi fan, but i struggled with this one which is sad! I hope I enjoy her future books like I used to.

Love this release and I’ve really enjoyed every book from the author. I’m already looking forward to seeing what is released next.

I LOVED this book. I couldn’t put it down.The romance, more of a subplot, is a slow burn that adds so much depth to the story. If I could, I'd give it more than five stars.

I loved Harriet and Cal. And I loved the ending. Actually, loved the beginning and the middle too. It’s a really well written and fantastic book.

You get to follow Harriet’s journey from a broken heart after one very abusive relationship and one toxic relationship. That’s why when she realise she’s getting feelings for Cal she feels he’s not for her. If she gets to have him it would be for only one night. People like her don’t end up with people like Cal. Nobody told him this though and it turns out he loves Harriet just as much as she loves him..

This was my first time reading a book from the author but I am delighted to say I thoroughly enjoyed the story and I look forward to reading more books from the writer in the future

Harriet is a successful wedding photographer but has no intention of getting married herself. Her boyfriend is also successful and rich but his family are very dominating but condescending about Harriet which he fails to see. When he chooses to propose to her in front of his entire family, she feels she has to say yes despite all her senses screaming at her to say no. Once alone, she breaks up with him and leaves.

She moves into a rented room, and finds out her landlord, Cal was a runaway groom from one of her wedding bookings. Things are awkward to begin with but feelings soon start to grow between them.

At another wedding, she spots a previous boyfriend who was mentally controlling with a new partner who looks just as defeated as she was. She takes it on herself to warn his new fiance without thinking of the consequences.

A great story of revenge - if you are brave enough

I loved this book! A great romance with a funny plot line, which is cleverly written.
The relationships, friendships and emotions throughout the book pull you in.
It was a joy to read and I cant wait for the next Mhairi book.

It took a while for me to get into this book due to personal circumstances however I'm glad I pushed on as it was a really great story. I liked most of the characters & the general storyline

Despite being a wedding photographer, Harriet is very definite that she doesn’t want to get married. So when her boyfriend proposes in front of his entire family, she can’t escape quick enough. Renting a room off Cal seems like a safe option, while she works out what to do with her life. But Cal also has a past he’s escaping, having jilted his bride at the altar. Can the pair find a way to be together?

Mad About You is another Mhairi McFarlane masterpiece, with a rude, overpowering mother, a rich, overprivileged ex, and a supporting cast of friends to spice up the mix. The interaction between Harriet and Cal works well and their building relationship is believable. It’s an enjoyable story which keeps you entertained through to the end.

Thoroughly recommend.

Kind of reminded me of Flat Share. A cute, sweet romance story. a will they wont they. Not a hard read, nice for hols and especially if you a a fan of romance, & comedy novels

I found I was expecting more romance however the story focused more on the growth and progression of the characters. I enjoyed the authors style of writing and found it an enjoyable read.

I absolutely adored this book. I loved Harriet and Cal as characters and could see where it was heading a mile off. However, this book whilst light and with some laugh out loud bits also delved into more serious topics. They were written really well and have real food for thought. I’m a sucker for a love story and to be honest Harriet and Cals is now one of my favourites! A really good read that has me excited to read more by this author. Definitely going to be an auto buy for me.

A lovely read. You start this book thinking you know what you’re getting, what characters you’re going to meet. But then you’re hit like a freight train with a switch in the story you weren’t expecting!
Main character Harriet, goes from rejecting a public proposal, to house sharing with someone who is an ex client (Harriet is a wedding photographer) to confronting a toxic, soul destroying ex!
One thing is for sure, you won’t be bored reading this!! Definitely recommend!!

Witty and original. The thought of the horror of a proposal in front of a family, especially if you really don't want to accept - eek! Rather a lot of characters to get to grip with and it certainly wasn't fluffy romance. An interesting read.

Absolutely loved this book!

The writing style was really good and I look forward to reading any other books from this author in the future :)

Mad About You is another brilliant novel by Mhairi McFarlane, who is truly one of my favorite authors. The premise is simple: Harriet, a professional wedding photographer, breaks up with her boyfriend and becomes roommates with Calvin, the runaway groom of a wedding she was hired to shoot. But there is SO much more to Harriet’s story

The thing that I love about McFarlane’s writing is that the stories are absolutely hilarious yet incredibly emotional. All of her characters are so cool, witty, yet unpretentious. You just want to hang out with them. But this story is heavy. It explores the impact and aftermath of emotionally abusive relationships, and doesn’t really pull any punches. McFarlane handles it beautifully.

The love interest was absolutely crush worthy—a hot, supportive journalist with his own complicated back story. I will say, though, that the love story is this book is more peripheral than in the rest of McFarlane’s catalogue. I didn’t mind that, though, because the story was so good.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me a copy to read and review!

Enjoyable, emotional read.

Harriet and Cal house share,
both are hiding away from their past.

This touches on nothing is as it seems and don’t judge a book by its cover.

A Jilted bride, an unexpected engagement, a slimy relative, narcissistic ex, a ruined career and having to face up to the past are some of the events included in this unputdownable novel.

I have read and enjoyed this author before and was not disappointed. Great story line, great cast of characters and an enjoyable story. Would recommend

Fabulous book! Love her writing, love the characters, love the storyline! Can’t fault it, I was hooked and completely absorbed into it :)

I LOVE Mhairi McFarlane - Mad About You is a brilliant feel good 5-star read.
The perfect romcom this summer.

Loved this book. Love anything Mhari and i have read everything she has written and she never disappoints.

Love that her characters are well rounded and flawed and developed outside of the relationships they develop.
