The series continues!


This time around Dom is moving on. She's on that dangerous precipice of 'a rebound' but she blows through it. She realizes new things about herself along the way, too.


The plot is a lot like the first book. There is a whole lot of sex and a few insights. However, I think in the end she does finally realize what it means to be comfortable in your skin and move on. Dom had a lot of anger left over from her break up with her ex. That anger lead to some weird feelings, but she got it all sorted out.


I really liked her new boy-toy. He was a nerdy, hot sort of character. I wish he had lasting presence though. I'm a bit sad to see that Dom used him up for a summer fling and then left. Hopefully, he will come back in another book to some capacity. The banter between the two of them was rather endearing, when it wasn't smothered in sex.


I like the storylines in the books, but the amount of physical activity is starting to detract. It just seems like more emphasis is placed on a sexual awakening instead of the emotional growth needed to mature into an adult. Anatomy of a Single Girl had a bit more grit than the first book, so I hope as the series continues the story will become more than just a romp between the sheets.
