Thirty Days Hath by Chautona Havig
Revised Edition Released February 26th, 2019
Blind Dates Are for Wimps!
At least, that’s what Adric Garrison thinks.
Can you blame him? Thanks to his sister and brother-in-law, Adric is about to embark on a year of month-long, chaperoned, blind dates. Awkward.
He didn’t ask for it. But Adric still finds himself living what seems more like a bad TV reality show than a new life in Fairbury.
Once an ordinary (if prematurely gray and vertically challenged) guy, Adric is now Fairbury’s newest “most eligible bachelor,” and dreams of permanent bachelorhood loom on the horizon. Will he call it quits before the year is out, or will one of his “girls of the month” change his mind?
One man, twelve women, one happily ever after.
My Review
I’ll be honest; this is not my first time opening up this book. I have readThirty Days Hath probably 3-4 times in the last seven years or so. For some reason, the more I read a book, the more difficult it is for me to write up a review. Maybe because I’m too familiar with it?
The evidence that I do enjoy the book, is shown by the fact that I do reread the book every while.
I enjoy reading about Adric and following his adventures, so to speak, with all the women who come stay in his house. I find his character, specifically with watching his temper, fascinating.
Further, watching all of the different types of women who Adric gets to know in a year, is actually an intriguing study, both in the differences between people, and in the abilities of the author. It’s easy to fall into making your characters very much alike – Chautona Havig had to write up twelve women and make us believe that they were all – different. She accomplishes that well, and it makes for a fascinating personality study as a bonus.
Fairbury is possibly my favorite of Mrs. Havig’s towns, as well, so the fact that Adric lives there is a bonus.
The story is fun, intriguing, and has just a touch of mystery to it. It also rarely makes me squirm, despite being a romance, which is always a lovely thing. There’s a reason why Chautona Havig is one of my favorite modern authors and this book is one of those reasons.

About the Author
Chautona Havig lives in an oxymoron, escapes into imaginary worlds that look startlingly similar to ours and writes the stories that emerge. An irrepressible optimist, Chautona sees everything through a kaleidoscope of It’s a Wonderful Life sprinkled with fairy tales. Find her on the web and say howdy—if you can remember how to spell her name.
To the KING be all glory!
Cool review, and great giveaway! :D
Hey, and I absolutely love your new bio pic! :D Love and miss you! <3 😘
Thank you! Love and miss you too! :)
I love this book, too! I only just read it for the first time, but can sure see myself rereading it. Chautona is one of the few authors whose books I read over and over.
I do enjoy re-reading several of her books. Her Alexa Hartfield Mysteries are among my very favorite to re-read, as well as Not a Word. :D
The book sounds great and I appreciate getting to hear about it. Thank you for sharing!
Aw, Rebekah… you were there when I wrote it,weren’t you?
Sorta. Through my mother. lol I found the premise fascinating. I think I had started talking to you myself around the time you published it.
