Hermione will do anything to prove to her boss at Witch Weekly that she's ready to take on more serious topics, including dating a man just to drive him away for the sake of her next column, How to Lose a Wizard in 10 Days. But pushing Draco Malfoy away proves to be a challenging task, perhaps because he's got ten days to make her fall in love with him.

QUOTES/ SCENES (please excuse typos, transcribing either from audiobook/ ebook):
This was so cute. Romcoms aren’t something I really gravitate towards but this was so for me. I love how they were both driving each other mad and couldn’t understand what was going on with the other. Draco was hilarious while he was going insane and Blaise was great too. I love when Blaise is the serious one out of the Slytherin boys but this new light hearted playful Blaise was great. He had some of the best quotes. This was one of the easiest fics for me to visualize. I literally had a movie playing in my brain the whole time I was reading. Love love love it.
3.75; such a fun and fast paced read, loved being back in the dramione world and LOVE the concept of how to lose a guy in 10 days, combines two of my faves. This was funny and just overall a lovely time. Definitely a recommendation for any dramione and romcom lover!
The chapter that consisted of the parents' weekend trip was very well written. Mixing her background with her parents in and how they handled being oblivating. Loved ut.
