I have to admit I could not get through this entire book. Years later it is still on my Kindle and I just didn't enjoy the writing enough to power through.

Pia, Angie, Julia, Coco and Madeleine are five girls in their twenties, who are sharing a hip brownstone in Brooklyn, New York. Pia is definately the main character of this first book in a series, and the reader gets to learn about her ups and downs in her new adult life. After college graduation she is pointless about what to do now. She has job interview after job interview without any result, and as a result of that, she is broke. But then she gets the chance to buy her own foodtruck, an upcoming hype in Manhattan. She buys the truck from a loan shark, and that is going to get her in trouble soon. But her food truck, Skinnywheels, with fresh and healthy food from Brooklyn is a huge succes! critical.

Instead of running to the Bank of Mum and Dad, despite the temptation, Pia is determined to make it on her own. With a little help from her housemates, the other Brooklyn Girls, it looks like Pia might have pulled off the impossible after all. But that's if the consequences of some bad decisions don't come back to haunt her first....

I think this was a brilliant first installment in a new series. It was written in a fun way that keeps you interested in what happens to the 5 girls, and foremost Pia, Personally books set in New York are my favorite, and this book had such another different and Original twist because for a change it was not set in Manhattan but in Brooklyn. I truly enjoyed Pia's adventures when she sets of her adult life but doesn't succeed in the beginning. Then she buys the food truck and her life changes. The author described the food truck bizz in such a fun way, very realistic and I wish there where such a wide range of food trucks in my country, because they sound just awesome! But ofcourse, Pia's food truck adventure doesn't come without a few bumps in the road. She bought the truck in a pawn shop, and the guy she bought it from is nothing but a criminal loan shark. Pia has to pay him every month, but every time he comes with a guy who makes threats to Pia that bad things are going to happen because she can't pay him full. And when her truck is open, she gets threated by another food truck owner who claims she is standing on his spot. There are of course some guys showing up in the book too, but what happens with that, read and find out for yourself in this fantastic new NA novel, I won't spoil the fun for you!

This will go live on my blog on Tuesday. Kellyvision.wordpress.com

This is the first in a series about girls in their early twenties who are roommates in Brooklyn. This one focuses on Pia, a pretty epic screwup who goes from job to job and guy to guy.

I think if I had read this book as a teenager or even, say, before the age of 25, I would have loved it. As it is, I couldn't stop rolling my eyes at Pia. She is the epitome of the girl who means well but doesn't think at all, ever.

So she starts a food truck with money from a loan shark. She works SO HARD to earn the last $10,000 for him and takes the money with her everywhere so it isn't stolen. Shocker: IT GETS STOLEN.

This is a very entertaining story and it is a crazy fast read. But I didn't connect with it at all. Because I am old now.
