PDF Ebook The Lonely Hearts Club, by Brenda Janowitz
Jo Waldman lives to her own soundtrack — working by day while pursuing her music career in NYC’s downtown clubs at night. So when Jo is fired and her boyfriend breaks up with her, Jo doesn’t get upset — she just wants to rage. Dusting off her computer, Jo writes a blog entry, pouring her heart out about the shortcomings of love. But as Jo hits “publish,” she accidentally sends a mass e-mail to the entire mailing list for her former almost-famous band The Lonely Hearts Club, announcing to everybody that she's been brutally dumped. To her surprise, supportive e-mails start flowing in — many of them from complete strangers. Apparently, her anti-love rant has struck a chord. The Lonely Hearts Club Blog develops a huge following and Jo becomes an icon for all things anti-love. Now the poster girl for lonely hearts and writing music again, Jo has one problem: the web programmer developing her site is simply dreamy. Jo's never been very good at depriving herself of anything, but if this budding romance is exposed, she'll be revealed as an anti-love fraud and risk losing the fans who have found a voice in her music.

Review "This sweet story from Janowitz is about growing up, letting go, and figuring out what your future should be. The series of hard knocks Jo suffers shake her out of her all-too-comfortable rut in a way that makes her a heroine worth following. Recommended for new adult romance fans." --Library Journal"Very entertaining." --Chick Lit Club"The Lonely Hearts Club is a great light read, meant for anyone who loves a good romantic story with some dramatic flair. The more I think about this story and contemplate it, the more I realized just how much it even inspired me. Taking your pain and turning it into something positive is very empowering and a great message." --Novel Escapes"I will definitely have to go and discover more of Janowitz’s writing, she has that easy, enjoyable writing style I love and I adored the music refrences, and song titles for the chapter names, it was a fantastic read." --Girls Love To Read"From the opening line, I was hooked. I liked how the story was delivered, and how imperfect (Jo) was. There are so many other things I could mention that added up to The Lonely Hearts Club being an interesting and relatable reading experience but then I don't want to spoil it for you. All I can say is Brenda did a good job in writing such a good story and fans of coming of age novels will surely be delighted by this one." --Itching For Books"Brenda Janowitz does it again! The Lonely Hearts Club is pure fun!" --Traveling With T"Brenda Janowitz's newest has heart, great details, and a main character who does a lot of growing. Great read!" --Rather Be Reading

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Don't be Lonely with this book! By Leah At first I was a little bit wary of The Lonely Hearts Club. The opening chapter is great – especially when it turns out Jo is being fired by her DAD of all people. That’s quite hilarious, and a bit sad, too, but for the next couple of chapters not a lot happens and it mainly focuses on Jo and her relationship with Jesse, her boyfriend of two years. As soon as he was out of the picture, the novel really ramps up the pace, and I found myself completely ensconced in the novel. Jesse set off my bad-guy alarm, and he totes didn’t deserve Jo. Even though it was devastating to Jo that he left, it was for the best, really. Especially since it creates probably one of my absolute-favourite scenes in book history: a Valentine’s night spent drinking vodka where you wake up the next morning and find you have spilled your guts to everyone on the Internet, via way of social media and the lure of a mailing list, courtesy of Jo’s old band website The Lonely Hearts Club Band. Those sorts of scenes are always the best, and I loved how it was on everyone’s radar immediately and the phone conversation that occurs soon afterward with Jo and her friend Chloe was amazing. Perfectly timed, perfectly set out, just perfect. That whole run of pages was just immense beauty. Even the awful Italian restaurant trying to charge Jo double for her usual, on Valentine’s Day!I found that that simple passage of time really did wonders for the novel and turned it from an okay read into a fantastic read. All of a sudden, Jo’s life was this big whirlwind of telling the world about how awful love is, and because not a lot of time is spent focusing on the bad parts of love, everybody wanted to have their say, and I enjoyed all the fun comments and Tweets and messages from those reading Jo’s blogs. It literally felt like Jo was a friend and I was part of her movement, even though I wasn’t, and it was just a book. Janowitz has that unique knack of really knowing how to write a young twenty-something and she captured Jo perfectly. I could imagine her sitting in her loft (until she had to move out) working away at her blog, or on her best friend Chloe’s couch, it all seemed so real to me. Even better, of course, was the irony of just when Jo was on the verge of giving up love for good…. In walked the delectable, geeky Max, who helps Jo fix up the website, and the two soon start a pretty intense, super enjoyable to read about, relationship. I love how Max and Jo just went at it, and weren’t worried about whether the other liked them, or how to ask them out, or any of that other stuff that complicates relationships that should be super easy. They liked each other, they kissed, they were in a relationship. BOOM.The Lonely Hearts Club wasn’t all roses though – Jo got sacked (and considering it was by her Dad, too, that’s rough), her dad took away her car, told her she had to start paying rent, she got dumped, and it really was a tale of picking yourself up when you’re down. I could quite easily be in Jo’s situation if my parents weren’t so cool about me living at home. Trying to be a grown up in this day and age and pay your way when jobs are scarce is tough. This is a tough economy to try and live in, and the way Jo pulls herself out of the metaphorical gutter is very impressive. And thankfully Janowitz does it in a way that’s not depressing or dark, it’s a very light, fun read, that touches on some dark subjects in a very real and very well written way. I enjoyed every page – even when it all inevitably went wrong again for poor Jo and was very sad when it came to an end! Jo is a very real twenty-two-year-old and I empathised with her massively, and loved her and just wanted to give her a hug (and perhaps move into her Dad’s loft with her – how cool to say you live in a loft…). I will definitely have to go and discover more of Janowitz’s writing, she has that easy, enjoyable writing style I love and I adored the music refrences, and song titles for the chapter names, it was a fantastic read.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Kritters Ramblings By Kristin Jones Check out the full review at Kritters RamblingsJo is a daughter who has received quite a bit of help from her parents and at the time where the story begins her father is ready to cut the strings and have her try to live on her own. At the same time she has a boyfriend who wants other things in life - namely not her and her job situation is quite poor, so Jo must work on all areas in this book and hopefully come out on top!First, I love that love wasn't the only speed bump in Jo's road of life - the job and family were also issues that she had to deal with. I felt like the author perfectly combined all the dramas where nothing overshadowed the other, but it also didn't feel too dramatic.
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. loved By Mrs Mommy Booknerd (Mrs Mommy Booknerd's Book Reviews) #MMBBR Wow, just WOW. Janowitz writes what a breakup feels like at the core...the pain, the sadness and the disbelief. But she does so with a main female character that is both strong and weak, determined and disheartened, wonderful and flawed. Janowitz captured ans fleshed out a great lead that did not need to be a damsel in distress, but a woman out to turn things around on her own accord. Rock on Janowitz, rock on!!!! 5 stars
