Riotously funny rom-com. This book should be made into a movie. The funniest bits are when they are poking fun at cinema scene. Definitely one for the film buff; you may recognise some of the more obscure movies mentioned like "The Maize Runner: The Starch Trials". The closing bits of the book could perhaps have been written more in line with the witty parts found at the beginning and certain characters like Deb and Ugly Joe could have been given a bit more scene time but it overall it is still a very enjoyable chick lit.

I just couldn't quite get through this one. Mostly because I couldn't stand the main character. I was as annoyed with her as all of her former boyfriends. And the idea that a guy is so hot and so sweet but he is only used by women (and doesn't even realize this somehow...?) to boost their self-esteem to go out there and find another shitty guy is...dumb. Like he obviously would have been happy to long-term date many of these women and they would have found someone who was hot, kind and treated them well which is the end goal right? I was just confused and the humor didn't really match up with mine, unfortunately.

Bland hero and unlikeable heroine make The Hot Guy a tepid romance at best. I did not find anything comical about the stilted dialogue or ridiculous setup. It was a slog to get through the first act, and I had to tap out soon after. Adam may be a hot guy, but me thinks The Hot Guy could use some extra cook time.

I loved this! Super funny, like laugh out loud funny and I need that from time to time! Top read! This was perfectly light and wonderful for the summer!

The humor in this book wasn't my personal taste however I think that if you want a quick easy "beach read" then you'll probably enjoy this book.
