Three years later Jeremy is the small town's doctor, Levi the Chief of Police and Faith lives in San Francisco. Jeremy comes out of the closet and tells her that he is gay. Small town girl Faith falls in love with her high school sweetheart Jeremy, the perfect man and after eight years, during their wedding, the best man Levi encourages Jeremy to tell Faith the truth about himself. It is true that Higgins excels when writing from the third person point of view. There are a few aspects of The Best Man that I liked. However, I heard some great things about Higgins' latest books, and the fact that she switched to the third person point of view perspective encouraged me to pick up this romance. Additionally I found the romance in that book to be more of a side story. Now, this is only the second book I have read by this author, the first one didn't necessarily work for me because although Higgins' portrayal of relationships between family and friends was highly enjoyable, I did not enjoy her style of writing in the first-person point of view perspective and the 'chick-lit' flavor that overwhelmed the story. Additionally, linking Goodreads and Amazon accounts (reviews) would be a total deal breaker for me, so I'm going to 'wait and see' how this develops.īut going back to reading, I decided to give 'romance' a shot and picked up a couple of books, one of them was Kristan Higgins' latest contemporary romance, The Best Man. Plus, I love interacting with friends at Goodreads. I do love keeping track of my books, updates and notes on what I'm currently reading there.

I'm hoping that Goodreads policies won't change. I also found the whole 'Amazon Buys Goodreads! extra, extra read all about it' piece of news a bit disturbing.
