Book Preview: No Offense by Meg Cabot


I received an ARC from NetGalley and HarperCollins Publishers in exchange for my honest review.

No Offense by Meg Cabot
Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers
Ages: Adult
Release Date: 11 Aug 2020

Set in the Florida Keys on a small, charming island, we meet new children's librarian Molly Montgomery. As the story starts Molly discovers an abandoned newborn in one of the stalls in the restroom. Enter local sheriff John Hartwell. As the search for the newborn's mother leads them into a larger web of local crimes, Molly and John begin to fall deeper into arguments and . . . love.

Is this predictable? Yes.
Is this fun? Yes.
Did the representation of the children's librarian bother me a bit? Yes.

Ok. It needs to be said. If I am having a program for kids and a teen crashes I will, for the most part, not say much. Especially if they are behaving. If they, on the other hand, begin doing "cookie porn", I'm not about to let that slide for even a bit. Seriously Molly, get your crap together!

Otherwise, this is your typical rom-com and your patrons are going to dig it. It's nice that it does have that sprinkling of mystery going throughout too.
