Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in an exchange for an honest review.

Plot

This story was very cute and funny. I enjoyed it a lot and actually finished it in one sitting because it was a light and easy read. In Emma Nash, we follow a young 16-year-old girl who is navigating life after her first break up. Leon didn't dump Emma. He just ignored her and stopped talking to her. She is distraught and no longer knows how to live after this heartbreak. Especially when she sees his newest status: Leon is in a relationship. So what does any self-respecting human do? A little internet stalking of him and his new girlfriend. From there Emma and her friends decide she is in need of a new mission. She shall try her hand at meeting people online and moving on from Leon. Emma learns much about herself on this journey of finding a boyfriend including what we should all know: You don't need a man or woman to be happy. The whole plot is told through a series of blog posts so that is very relatable lol. I loved this plot because Emma was so real in the sense that I feel like many young people did some of the silly stuff she did. I know for a fact I did. I wasn't a complete mess over my first break up because I did the breaking but my younger years did involve internet stalking lol. 

Writing

The writing was more funny and relatable than anything. Don't come into this book expecting something in depth. You have to take the writing at face value. It is told from the perspective of a hormonal teenager who has a lot of sass, wit, sadness and some cluelessness lol. She has a lot to learn about herself, dating, and life. But, again this book is so damn funny. Emma's disastrous escapade in dating will bring you back to those awkward first dates and boyfriend/girlfriends. I was clutching my stomach sometimes because of how ridiculous and eye-roll inducing Emma's adventures were. The writing is simple and mimics that of a young teen which is good. So even though it's not some in-depth masterpiece the writing works for the voice and tone of the book and the storyline. The romance is actually very funny and again brings you back to your teen years in dealing with dating. But it's actually not in your face at all and a lot of moments are pretty cute and adorable. The parental aspect is really interesting and another problem that you see Emma work through. Love/dating, friendship, and parents oh the joys of your teen years. 

Characters

Emma is one hilarious chick with so much to learn. We get to see that journey and it really is something special. Emma struggles a lot with self-image but she also is pretty sure of herself sometimes. I love how openly this book talks about periods and masturbation. These are common occurrences in lives yet so taboo in books and I never understand. Emma's character, as well as her friends, discuss many topics that are important in society today like societal roles for woman and issues regarding LGBT people (Faith is Lesbian). Emma is by no means perfect she makes many mistakes and I loved reading about her flaws and her learning from them. Emma was a very refreshing main character. The side cast was fun and added a lot of joy to the story. 

I highly recommend this story!

Dating Disasters of Emma Nash Chloe Seager Books Reviews

I am a sucker for dairy style writing. It makes me feel like I am a voyeur who is seeing into the world of the character. I liked Emma and her thoughts on the world around her. She is a relatable character. Young Adult fiction will always be my favorite even though I am not the typical Young adult age. I found myself laughing at certain interactions.
Social media was just starting to become a thing when I was in high school but for the youth of today? This book is shows a lot of what goes on because of social media. Written in the style of a blog, you follow Emma as she as she tries to figure out life and relationships. Even though it’s written as if you’re reading a blog, its more like a diary entry since it’s a private blog. It is a different way to write a book and the author has done it in such a way that it covers everything a normal novel does. On top of that it will make you burst out laughing at times.
Emma is a character that is awkward and just trying to find her way in the world. Her thoughts and mishaps when it comes to love and life are so real. When you are 16 every small thing, especially when it comes to love, seems like the end of the world and Emma is the character that portrays that perfectly. 
The dating disasters of Emma Nash is the perfect book for teens and adults. Its funny, interesting and relatable to todays life.

This is a unbiased review of an advanced copy received through goodreads first reads.
This book was just not the one for me.

I had a lot of high hopes after I read the blurb- I was thinking I'd be getting some kind of Bridget Jones's for the Young Adult reader. In a way, it did remind me of Bridget...we really get the novel through a series of blog entries, text messages, and tweets.

I don't really have strong feelings, in either direction, about that narration style, so that definitely wasn't a deal breaker for me.

Honestly, the main character was. I get that Emma's a teenager, and she thought Leon was her BIG LOVE. There just was not enough humor to balance out the moping. The beginning really dragged for me, and I totally understood (and not in a funny way) how Emma could think that her friends and her mother were going to start getting tired of her. If there had been comedic relief, I could have dealt with the long-term moping, but the book just didn't make me laugh.

Aside from that, I just didn't find Emma to be very likable. She was totally self-absorbed, and she just really wasn't very nice to a lot of the important people in her life. Some of that could be excused as the side effect of dealing with a break-up, but I didn't feel like she really changed at all.
This novel was a continuous laugh-out-loud kind of adventure, as we see Emma try to reinvent herself, online, after a break-up. Her attempts to find a new boyfriend to get over her old one fail spectacularly, as she tries to widen her social and dating field. She resorts to lying about her age, dabbles in awkward texting, gets catfished by a 13 year old, and ghosts the one guy who likes her because she is still not over her ex, whom she encounters daily in school. Her narration is chiefly via private blog posts (much like a diary, and is sex-positive), and occasional tweets. Emma is alternatively naive and enlightened, and Seager nails her teen voice perfectly, bringing out all the insecurities of being at that age, feeling rejected but also being a little dramatic about it. You simultaneously want to hug her, but also watch the train-wreck with secondhand embarrassment while whispering ‘Emma NO!’. Her relationship with her mom, and her friends (who also have their own romantic woes) are rendered well, and the witty dialogue keeps you entertained even if the plot overall can be a bit predictable. Definitely was the highlight on a sick day; I almost forgot I was suffering in bed.
