new twist on fast-paced quick read romance
Dating the Devil- really cute premise, and very enjoyable read. This goes quickly, is a page-turner, and I wish the story went on longer. There are times when I found myself laughing outloud- always a great sign for a romance! The twist is quite clever- who would think that she was really dating the... well, I won't give it away.The dialogue is especially good- Lia Romeo has a great ear for clever, realistic dialogue. Since I probably won't go off to New York and experience what Lucy does, at least I can read about it! This is the perfect curl-up-before-the-fire-with-a-book novel. It moves really quickly, and never drags.Since this is her first novel, I am hoping she has a long career writing fun romance novels. I think she is a big talent. It will be fun to see what happens in the sequence (there HAS to be a sequel... the story is just getting started!)Ginny

I liked everything BUT the ending!
The writing is fine, and the story is cohesive. It's a solid debut novel. But I just don't like the ending, and for me, that ruined the whole thing.I knew the premise, and I knew it would be a light, cute, romantic read. And it was. As others have indicated, it is pageturner -- I couldn't put it down! But the ending! It just left me blinking and confused . . .She is willing to be the reigning queen of hell -- for a guy?Some reviews have suggested this is a cliffhanger. If it is, and there is a sequel, I am not sure I would read it. I am disappointed --- up until about 3/4 of the way through, I was sure I was just going to rave about the book. I guess I expected her to date the devil, learn something from it, and move on. I didn't expect her to declare her eternal love for him. It just doesn't sit well for me. Not the kind of romantic partnership I can comfortably root for.

Surprisingly Good
As a girl that was raised Roman Catholic, I usually stay away from any book or movie with a subject matter regarding Satan. Still, I ordered my sample of this for my Kindle, and could not stop reading so I purchased the book, anyway. I still wasn't sure how much I could handle the Hero actually being the Devil, but I was cautiously optimistic. It turns out I could not put it down and read it in a day.It was a quick, charming read, with entertaining characters. I laughed a few times, which made it all the better.

Defective
Unfortunately the Kindle edition of the book has sections missing. At the bottom of a screen, part-way through a sentence, the top of the next screen is part-way through a different sentence. It makes it impossible to read the book and get a coherent grip on the story line. I'm truly disappointed as this story began well and the reviews (probably not for the Kindle edition) where very promising.

Funny, easy read
This is a perfect weekend book. It is surprisingly funny, the characters are easy going - even the mephistopheles is likable .It is certainly not a deep going book, but what does one expect about a book dating the devil.The end is a bit in satisfying , because it has a sudden end similar to a cliffhanger in a soap opera but I hope the author Lia Romeo won't let us wait too long.I can recommend this book.

Lonely girl falls for Satan
Lonely girl falls for Satan literally.Lonely girl's roommates find plenty of action everywhere they go,so when a handsome stranger pays attention to her she falls hard. Little does she know he is Satan.The whole premise is totally unrealistic, but that was one of the reasons it caught my attention. Can't say I loved the ending, but I guess that's all you could expect.

so good
This is a great book about falling in love fast and then questioning the very reason why you did that. The other issue that is dealt with is how would you do if the person you use to love came back into your life would you love the new one you are with or go back to the one you use to be with? This is a great book that will keep you with the story from beginning to the end. I would recommend this book to anyone.

The Ultimate Anti-Hero Romance
For me, Dating the Devil was an enjoyably fun, fast paced read that I found myself coming back to even when I wasn't on the subway (which I rarely ever do. As a New Yorker, I also enjoyed familiar references to some of Manhattan's kitschier spots, particularly once I discovered where "hell" was located (a real chortle-out-loud kind of moment). I found the book pleasantly surprising in its depiction of the Father of Lies as...a doting mate? Definitely a unique twist on modern chick lit themes.
