Happy Sunday book lovers!
Thrilled to bring you my review for this crazy book that will take you on a wild ride, for sure!🤯
My Thoughts
The Perfect Girlfriend is perfectly crazy!
Lock up your bunnies boys, Juliet/Lily is here! This book was Fatal Attraction’s crazier big sister! This wild story has movie written all over it, and the part of Juliet would be so much fun to play. Karen Hamilton has written an addictive entertaining story about one of the most likable psychotic characters I have ever met in a book. This was one mind blowing thrilling debut novel!
Juliet, the psychotic formerly known as Lily has one goal in life… to marry Nate. Even though he broke up with her, she is convinced that he will see the error in his ways, after all she is the “perfect girlfriend.” Juliet will stop at nothing to win Nate’s affections. She changes her career and is now a flight attendant for the same airline that he is a pilot for, she changes her residence now she lives only minutes away from Nate,She even changes her name, although I’m not quite sure what inspired that. This is really all you need to know about the plot, just sit back, buckle up, and get ready for one wild and crazy ride!
The entire story is told from Juliet’s POV. I loved every minute I spent inside Juliet’s head, her inner dialogue was priceless. I loved how she justified every crazy thing she did, she almost had me convinced a few times. Poor Nate he really was caught between a rock and well… Juliet. Unlike in the movie Fatal Attraction Nate was single he just didn’t want to commit to Juliet or anyone for that matter. Nate’s only mistake and it was a fatal one, was dating Juliet in the first place.
🎧🎧🎧 I listen to this book on audio, and spending many hours with Juliet in my ear was fabulous! This is the first time I’ve listen to a book narrated by Anne Marie Lee and she did a wonderful job. She really brought the character of Juliet to life, And I think she gave her the perfect tone.
This is a fun entertaining over-the-top story that will appeal to anyone who loves themselves some crazy! Absolutely recommend!
*** many thanks to Harlequin and Harper Audio for my copies of this book ***
About the Book
Juliette loves Nate.
She will follow him anywhere. She’s even become a flight attendant for his airline, so she can keep a closer eye on him.
They are meant to be.
The fact that Nate broke up with her six months ago means nothing. Because Juliette has a plan to win him back.
She is the perfect girlfriend. And she’ll make sure no one stops her from getting exactly what she wants.
True love hurts, but Juliette knows it’s worth all the pain.

Fantastic review, Berit!!! You are so right—this one SHOULD be a movie!!! Poor Nate! Though I oddly kind of was rooting for Juliette (even though she is CRAZY)
