Latte Lessons had its funny moments throughout the book. Not for the entire thing but when you really need a laugh, it will randomly appear. As for the characters, they were okay, but I don't think I had a favorite before I reached the very last page. Don't get me wrong, I liked them. I truly did. Just didn't have a competition on who I liked the most.
Other than that, the pace throughout the book was interesting. I don't remember hitting any bumps or lags while reading but I do remember getting to certain characters and just wanting to skim the page. Which, I didn't but the feeling still showed up every once in a while.
In the end, it was an okay book for never being on my radar until recently. I'll definitely have to try another one of Linda's books in the future. Just to give her writing another shot.

Latte Lessons had me laughing out loud several times. I especially enjoyed Claire’s witty observations on everything from yoga to the overuse of the word whore. It also doesn’t hurt that Claire’s friends are as engaging as she is--Dennis is a personal favorite, and Claire’s mom is a hoot-- oh, and there’s also the sexy leader of a boy band making advances.
Lenhoff’s writing is smooth and seamless and Latte Lessons had me hooked from the start. It’s a terrific novel filled with smart, funny characters.

Lenhoff’s writing style and tone were very good. However, sorry to say, “latte lessons” was not my cup of latte. I found the characters unsympathetic and the plot line remarkably dull. There were a few good moments that made me smile but not enough to recommend this novel.

Easy read, and cute! I predicted the end though, but I still loved reading it!

Most likely read while nursing someone. I appreciate Lenhoff's slightly unusual settings and plots. I get tired of variations on the London/NY/fashion industry angle.

A lot of repetitive phrasing.
