What this book's about:

Latte Daze is a completely adorable, laugh-so-hard-I-almost-peed-my-pants funny, and ultimately entertaining chick-lit about Maya Davis and her crazy life. Juggling her new boyfriend, new coworker, and trying to find a new house because she just found out her roommate/best friend is getting married to her ex-boyfriend makes life a little insane. But at least there are endless jokes about Jack (boyfriend/ex-coworker) going to work at the zoo to lighten th More...

First off, let me say I'm not a fan of chick lit and I'm past the age of girlfriends getting married and the whole dating nightmare. With that said I must admit I thoroughly enjoyed this story. You get a little bit of everything with this story. You have the insecure Maya, you have the "perfect" (but sweet) girl living the almost perfect life, with Jen, you have the wicked mother with Ms. Mitchell and then the guys. Travis, Maya's ex who's dating Jen, Ethan the computer geek, co-wor More...

Latte Daze is a perfect light, summer read.
The characters were so real and sweet. I couldn’t help but think of the movie Bride Wars while reading this book and pictured Anne Hathaway as Maya. (Although, Maya and Jen were in no way fighting in this story). Maya and Jen have such a great friendship. They just seem so adorable. I completely fell in love with Maya’s dog, Calvin. The way her parents dote on him reminds me of my dog!
Most of my Christian reading seems to be historical book More...

Latte Daze by Erynn Mangum starts out fast and goes full throttle to the last page.

Maya Davis is a creature of habit and she definitely hates change.She is an underemployed English major working as a barista at Cool Beans with her boyfriend Jack. She shares an apartment with her to cute beagle Calvin and her best friend Jen who by the way is dating and becoming very serious with Maya's old boyfriend Travis. She goes to church regularly and also attends a 20 something bible study grou More...

After reading Erynn Mangum’s first book, Miss Match, I was looking forward to reading more from her. I found her writing fun and entertaining. I haven’t been reading her books they way they were intended to be read though. After reading Miss Match I made sure to get the other two books in the Lauren Holbrook series. Unfortunately, I have not had a chance to read them. Well, when I saw her new series, the Maya Davis series, I knew I wanted to read that one too! Once again, I’m not reading t More...

In *Latte Daze*, book two of Erynn Mangum's *Maya Davis Series*, several months have elapsed since the end of the first book. Maya and Jen have reconciled from the hurt of Maya's secrets about having dated Jen's current boyfriend years back. Maya's also been dating her fellow coffeehouse Barista, Jack, for a couple of months now. Things are going well, but things always change. New periods in our lives begin, and bring with them completely different dramas with which to be dealt.

I am a huge Erynn Mangum fan. I've loved all of her books, and this one is no exception. Her writing voice is fun, and her characters are too. Erynn is also one of the best about including a spiritual concept or truth without sounding preachy. The new character of Ethan was a good addition to the cast, and I am eager to see what happens with him in book three. I also love that this book showed a little more depth in the relationship between Maya and her mom.

While I enjoyed the book More...

Another great adventure into the heart & mind a fabulously fun character & world, by Erynn Mangum. An author I've quickly added to my extreme favorites list... and I'm now anxiously awaiting the release (and Kindle release) of the third/final chapter in this current series!

Dealing with change has never been my forte, despite how constantly it invades my life. So watching/reading a beloved character struggle with it all... lean on God... and come through it, was encouraging... while utt More...

I've read all of the books in Erynn Mangum's Lauren Holbrook series as well as the predecessor to this book, Cool Beans, and I have to admit - I was very disappointed by Latte Daze. To me, it seemed like it was a sequel that was rushed to be printed. The whole story fell flat and I found myself beginning to be annoyed with Maya, the main character.

Plus, and this is just my observation, it honestly felt like every chapter had them eating something. I do enjoy 'kitchen fiction' novels bu More...

This is the second book in the Maya Davis series and it was just as wonderful as the first.

Latte Daze isn't the longest book in the world, or at least not the longest book I have ever read, but it seemed long. That might sound bad, but it's not. I found myself intrigued by everything going on right until the end. There were definitely a few slow parts, but I find it's hard to find a book that doesn't have a couple every now and then. Like Cool Beans, you will follow Maya in her everyda More...

Maya is experiencing a lot of changes in her life right now. She is handling them with prayer along with copious amounts of coffee, ice cream, and just sugar in general. I love how Maya is such a real person! She isn’t perfect, but with God’s help she is trying. It reminds me that God is bigger than my problems AND my character flaws. We all need that reminder sometimes. I can’t wait to see what happens next in the Maya Davis series!!

I prefer latte daze too the first novel it was funn and I found myself unknowingly smiling through out it the only thing I found upsetting was that it felt like the whole book was leading up to Jen and Travis's wedding and then reading the last couple of pages I was left a little bit disappointed as it ended the night before but other than that it was a really nice novel about how relationships grow and evolve and change in good ways and yea

Oh wow! So much happened in this book! It was crazy for Maya and Jack, And definitely crazy for Jen and Travis! Latte Daze was as good if not better than Cool Beans.(The first in the series.) Well time to go get some coffee!:-)

Can I just say that Maya Davis has one of the most adorable voices I have ever read? I do get a little tired of hearing outfits described, but these books are so worth the read.

These are just fun, light books -- totally not my usual type of book, but I really enjoyed the 1st 2 and am looking forward to reading the 3rd.

I always enjoy reading Erynn Mangum's books because they make me happy. Actually, they often make me laugh out loud. Her characters feel like people who would be hilariously fun friends, and I like that. :)

Cute and clean Christian read.

Two things that bugged me, I'm not sure which Bible this author quotes from but it sure isn't the King James Version.

Non too detailed spoiler:

Second, she started the second book 4 months after the 1st one left off. And a couple is dating during that time and he is barely kissing her cheek, come on! I like clean romances but give me a little sugar.

Moral Note: Clean
