Great job on the review! This sounds like my type of book. :) I like that it's set in the 1970's and that although it's part of a series, the ending is fulfilling. I look forward to reading it.

I enjoyed the sample that I read and look forward to reading more about Ruby falling in love. Sounds like the author is able to give a rich description of it. Nice job on the review.

Thanks for the well written review. Your review is convincing and eloquent. Ruby's choice by D.F.J seems great to me. After a lot of emotional roller coaster books, I would love to read something less dramatic such as this one. So i guess this book is for me. :D

I'm not big into romances, but you make this one sound like a fun read. I might give it a try, depending on the exclusion of intimate scenes. The review didn't really give a clue as to whether this is included or not. I prefer not :D

Romance is not usually my cup. However, this novel sounds interesting. I love the dating game idea. I also enjoy good characters, so this novel would fit with that. Thanks for the review.

If not for your review.... I may not have chosen this book to read. I think I will really enjoy how the book pulls from the 70's era with a song title from that same era. Also, how you stated that the characters are very believable. I will enjoy delving into a book that is a some what topic of coming of age in the 70's!

Great review! I'm don't normally enjoy reading romance novels, so this one probably isn't for me. However, it sounds like an original idea and a well written book.

Nicely written review. I like the way you point toward timeframe of book. If the book is equal quality as your rewiew, I believe it will be pleasure to read it. Also, your rewiew made me interested in book, because I really, and I mean really, like supernatural elements in books.

This sounds like a total guilty pleasure book for me. I also love the musical element, especially since I love 70's music. Great review!

Naming the chapters after songs sounds romantic! The idea of a love triangle gone awry just adds more flavor to the story. Sounds like an interesting story and your review makes me want to find out how this love triangle angles out. Thanks.

I remember in the 70's watching The Dating Game and enjoyed it! This book sounds like a fun read, I can definitely relate to the era and all that goes along with it. Nice review.
