Love. Marriage. Infidelity. Crises of identity. Death. Cupcakes. The themes in Right Click, the third and final installment in the Click series, couldn't be more pressing for this group of friends as they navigate through their 30's.

Another six months have passed since we last eavesdropped on the hilarious, poignant and oftentimes inappropriate email adventures of Renee and friends. As the story continues to unfold, relationships are tested and some need to be set "right" before everyone can find their "happily ever after."
I received a copy of this book from the author to provide an honest review.

When I started reading the first book of the book, Click, I was having a hard time to get into the format because it was written in the email form. But once I got used to the format, I found myself enjoying the book.

Right Click is the continuation of the Click Series. It focused on Renee’s email exchange with her friends – Ethan, Shelley, Ashley and Mark. I really like the group. I love how they were always looking after each other. What a beautiful friendship they shared!

Reading the Click series by Lisa Becker kind of makes me feel like I’m prying into somebody else’s business /life because it was written in the email form.  And it was fun. The Right Click was an easy and quick read. It was very hard to put down the book because I really enjoyed it. There were friendship, romance, humor, and drama – all in the same book and the series.

Right Click (and the other books in the series) is definitely a must read for those who were looking for something sweet, short and easy read.

Fans of the romantic hit Click: An Online Love Story will enjoy another voyeuristic dive into the lives of Renee, Shelley, Ashley, Mark and Ethan, as Double Click picks up with their lives six months later. Are Renee and Ethan soul mates? Does Mark ever go on a date? Has Shelley run out of sexual conquests in Los Angeles? Will Ashley's judgmental nature sabotage her budding relationship? Through a marriage proposal, wedding, new baby and unexpected love twist, Double Click answers these questions and more. Readers will continue to cheer, laugh, cry and cringe following the email exploits of Renee and friends.

I received a copy of this book from the author to provide an honest review.

Double Click is the sequel of Click which I have reviewed previously. It was still written in e-mail format all throughout the book. The story took six months later from the first book. I mentioned in prior that I found the first book, Click to be a little bit confusing with the e-mail exchange between Renee and her friends with the cc, bcc and fwd. Sometimes, the events that occurred outside of the email which I did not see confuse me as I have no idea what was going on.  But I can see that the e-mails in Double Click were much more organized.  It was much easier to read and understand without getting confuse.

Seeing how I gave this book a 4 loves as compared of 3 to the first book, you can tell that I enjoyed this book more. I think Double Click is definitely much more interesting and funnier than the first one. I just can’t stop myself flipping the pages to know what will happen to Renee, Shelly, Ashley and Mark. I cannot believe that the story has ended once I reached to the very last page. I wanted to read more! Double Click is definitely an enjoyable read with lots of laugh out loud moments.

Book Review: Click: An Online Love Story

Click
by Lisa Becker

Genre: Chick Lit, Contemporary, Friendship, Romance
Publication:  March 29th 2011
Format: Kindle Edition, 347 pages
Fast approaching her 30th birthday and finding herself not married, not dating, and without even a prospect or a house full of cats, Renee Greene, the heroine of Click: An Online Love Story, reluctantly joins her best guy pal on a journey to find love online in Los Angeles. The story unfolds through a series of emails between Renee and her best friends (anal-compulsive Mark, the overly-judgmental Ashley and the over-sexed Shelley) as well as the gentlemen suitors she meets online. From the guy who starts every story with "My buddies and I were out drinking one night," to the egotistical "B" celebrity looking for someone to stroke his ego, Renee endures her share of hilarious and heinous cyber dates. Fraught with BCC's, FWD's and inadvertent Reply to All's, readers will root for Renee to "click" with the right man.

I received a copy of this book from the author to provide an honest review.

Click: An Online Love Story was written in e-mail format all throughout the book. Renee Greene, the heroine was talked by her best friend, Mark to join an online dating site. This was where the fun started. We get to watch how Renee interactions with the guys she met online and how her best friend, Shelley, Ashley and Mark would react to it as Renee bcc and fwd some of her email to them. I didn’t like how the story was written at first. It can get a bit confusing with how the story was written (in email form). There were a few times when I have to rewind back because I keep forgetting who the email is for or who is it from (and the bcc and fwd). But after a while, I got used to the format.

Click: An Online Love Story was an easy read that you can probably finish in one day. I love to watch (or read) Renee’s adventure in looking for love. She sounded fun. I love reading her emails (and Shelley’s). And I enjoyed reading emails Renee got from the guys she met in the online dating site. It was mostly hilarious! I got excited to know who Renee will end up with.

Overall, Click: An Online Love Story was a quick, light read. But in my opinion, the book was lack of emotion and human interactions.

The Sequel to Click, Double Click is expected somewhere this spring
