Disclaimer: I received a complimentary copy of Post Traumatic Brazilian Wax Syndrome from Tamara Lyon in exchange for an honest review. The opinions I express are my own.

The title is what caught my eye and who wouldn't want to read a book titled "Post Traumatic Brazilian Wax Syndrome"? I was fascinated because as a woman I can't imagine putting myself through that type of pain. I find it incomprehensible that I pay someone to wax my eyebrows and that is about all the waxing pain I can handle!

This book started out pretty slow for me and I had a devil of a time getting really into it. It isn't that the characters are stupidly hilarious or the plot lacks, I was over a quarter of the way into the book and considering not finishing it before it finally caught my attention. I'm glad I stayed with it because it turned in to a story worth reading.

Poor Bristow . . . she is so emotionally damaged by her past that she has absolutely no idea how to approach a future of any sort with a member of the opposite sex. She has a sure thing in front of her and is totally missing the forest for the trees.

Then there is Bristow's family . . . if they were mine I think I'd run far away and change my name and start a new life! Talk about drama! Margarita brings a life of drama to a whole new level of drama queen!

And the characters that she works with and works for . . . they are too much from the very beginning, as Post Traumatic Brazilian Wax Syndrome starts with a sex toy party thrown by Bristow's boss, Lola, for a very persnickety potential client who is launching her new sex toy business.

What a bunch of business Post Traumatic Brazilian Wax Syndrome turns out to be. I do recommend you dive in for an evening of laughs, sadness, criminal activity and happily-ever-after.

I give Post Traumatic Brazilian Wax Syndrome by Tamara Lyon three hot cups of Room With Books coffee.

How do I write this review? I laughd OUT LOUD and I had my heart tugged and smashed and squeezed!
There was blood and guts! Characters that I will remember forever. And tears!
I will add a tissue alert.

This is in fact the perfect vacation or beach read.
Perfect for both genders and all ages! Well, maybe high school and above.
I have recommended it to all of my friends. I can't wait to share it with more people.
Drama, adventure, comedy - a dog to live for! I can not praise it highly enough.

I fell for the main character and her Gigi. I agonized with her on those disasterous dates!
There were times I wanted to reach into my ereader and slap certain characters. I stayed up late to keep reading it!

I do not want to give away any spoilers but will say you will NOT be disappointed unless you put off reading this hilarious novel.

I did receive a free copy of the book to enjoy and review.… (altro)
