Romantic Comedy

Hopefully we'll laugh about love in this week's discussion about Curtis Sittenfeld's [Romantic Comedy](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62628727-romantic-comedy). A comedy writer who doesn't believe women like her get the guy, a pop star who just might prove her wrong and enough behind-the-scenes sketch-show chaos to keep things interesting. *Romantic Comedy* follows Sally Milz as fame, friendship and modern love collide in unexpectedly complicated ways.
