kay, Hell is freezing over. Pigs are flying. Dogs and cats are living together.

I read a romcom.

I’m in a Sunday evening class and when our old bookstore closed, I thought we were done. But then the class reformed in the same space, new owners. But this bookstore, The New Romantic, is a Romance bookstore. Not really my thing. But I was there early one night, poking around the store just before they closed, and I found Dungeons and Drama, a YA romance about a high school drama student, Riley, who is forced to work in her father’s game store as punishment for a crime. Of course, there she meets Nathan, a dreamy (though she doesn’t recognize it yet, of course) coworker who plays D&D. With her dad’s push, she joins the game and – gasp – finds she likes it.

This is followed by all those high school angsty issues about the prom, ex-boyfriends, jealousy and being in a fake relationship to make the inattentive partners pay more attention. And you know where this leads to. Of course.

But I’ll say this – it was a cute, quick and funny read. I wasn’t forced to finish it, I didn’t feel obliged because I paid money for it. No, it was just fun in that confusing will they/won’t they sort of way. Anyway, it’s on shelves now, authored by Kristy Boyce. This old man says check it out!
