Synopsis

Novelist Aaron Mite meets Laurie Lee at a writers' colony and mistakenly believes her to be a renowned writer of important fiction. When he discovers she's a self-published romance author, he's already fallen in love with her.

Aaron thinks genre fiction is an affront to the fiction-writing craft. He often quotes the essayist Arthur Krystal, who says literary fiction "melts the frozen sea inside of us." Ironically Aaron doesn't seem to realize that he's emotionally frozen. The vivacious Laurie, lover of flamingo-patterned attire and all things hot pink, is the one person who might be capable of melting him.

In the tradition of The Rosie Project, Love Literary Style is a sparkling romantic comedy which pokes fun at the divide between low and high brow fiction.

Favorite Quotes: Ramona was a fan of paranormal romances... It seemed odd that someone who liked to read about werewolf sex could accuse her of writing unrealistically.

Goodreads review by Carrie

Love Literary Style is part The Rosie Project and part Legally Blonde. If you like romantic comedies in either film or book form, you will feel right at home among these pages. There’s a little bit of poking fun at the genre but overall it’s an affectionate homage to romance novels and “chick lit”. I......more

Goodreads review by Kari

Love Literary Style is story about opposites attracting and finding their happily ever afters. Laurie and Aaron are as opposite as they come. I really wanted to love this story. It's about my one of my favorite subjects, the literary world. I know I am probably going to be in the minority when I say......more
