When Dory is attacked by a lion, she never expected to wake up on a space ship being run by large, colourful owls. In her escape, she and the lion land on an alien planet surrounded by dinosaurs and sexy aliens who she can only communicate with after kissing them. What the hell is going on and can Dory get home?

There is so much absurdity in this novel. Everything about the world has been build out of context by a species of owls who care more about the bottom line than they do about symbiosis. Dory is hilarious in both her attitudes and passions. Sol and Lok have a complete back story. The explicit content is well-balanced by the plot. I thoroughly enjoyed this.

Kimberly Lemming is a national treasure. I absolutely her Mead Mishaps series and was thrilled to see she had another one coming out next year. And of course I had to read it immediately upon NetGalley approval, even though it doesn't come out until next February. This book was an absolute delight. Each of the characters was more adorable than the last and the whole book was just so funny. I would cackle out loud, scaring my husband, and would send perfectly hilarious lines to my book coven text chat. I have learned that abduction is not a trope for me because I was waaaaaaay more focused on Dory making it home rather than the romance. But I would absolutely read more of the series, will continue to read anything Kimberly Lemming publishes, and will continue recommending her books to everyone.

Thank you Kimberly Lemming and NetGalley for the E-arc of I Got Abducted by Aliens and Now I'm Trapped in a Rom-Com!

If you’ve read Kimberly’s other books you know the crazy shenanigans her characters get into…but this book was 227 pages of pure chaos and I. LOVED. IT.

I had not read the synopsis before reading this book so I got a surprise not featured on the cover (Lok). Along with a talking lion (one of my favorite characters), and Sol (the love of my life)..What more could I ask for?

I would give you a synopsis but I genuinely have no clue what I read or what would be considered spoilers?? I will tell you that I laughed out loud and swooned a WHOLE bunch (some would say 2x the amount I was prepared for 👀). If you love the humor and hijinks of Kimberly’s other books, be prepared! As with all of her books I wish this was 100 pages longer. I would’ve loved to get to know our main characters a bit more! That being said you will not be disappointed by this books and its many plot twist!

Kimberly I would rip all of my teeth out of my skull for the homicidal maniac’s story (Blair)!!

Likes:
• Surprisingly the talking Animal Sidekick (if anyone could make me love this trope I’d be Kimberly)
• Dory (the FMC) is so science-y. I think she was the perfect fit for the first book!
• All of the fun science and animal biologist aspects
• Both LI have great chemistry with Dory. I love the tamagotchi aspects. They made me cry laugh!

Dislikes:
• Too short!!! (Needed more time to get to know Sol and Lok)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.25/5
🌶️🌶️🌶️.5/5

This book is the most outlandish and silly thing that I’ve read in a while but in the best way possible and exactly what I expect from a Kimberly Lemming novel. I had such a good time reading about Dorothy and Toto’s misadventures. Sol and Lol were interesting characters although I will say that the reverse harem aspect of this book could have been stated a bit more explicitly in maybe the author note or synopsis. Overall this was an extremely entertaining read that will at the very least provide lots of laughs.

Thank you to Netgalley and Berkley Publishing Group for the e-arc in exchange for an honest review.
