He smirked. “It’s not that I don’t believe you; it’s that we both know you would’ve signed up whether it was mandatory or not.”

i loved scott as well. he was so nice and caring.. and my heart melted when he proposed to emily. i was so happy for emily and how understanding bailey became in the end when she realised that scott wasn't all that bad. well, he wasnt all too well either.. but.. all's well that ends well, right? The strangers to friends to lovers was super cute. I loved the friendship and how it took up a lot of the book. The slow burn was fantastic and I really felt the chemistry between them. P.S. This could totally be an ARC thing, but her hair is described as dark and curly several times. But on the cover she’s nearly a redhead with wavy hair?? I am confusion. Now don’t get me wrong, it did have unique angles and perspectives, especially the exploration of divorce. I also think it handled the fake dating in a really fun way that I wasn’t expecting. Once it started getting into its own groove and not trying to be a retelling, I had a really good time with the book. I also thought the plot structure was fun and different than I’d anticipated it going. It definitely hit its stride around fifty percent. Once they were just invested in becoming friends, I was invested in them.it reminded me of a 'gold rush' by taylor swift kinda theme. they both like each other but dont know.. idk how to explain. but yeah thats what was in my head for some time. second, AND DONT FREAK OUT!, but.. too MANY taylor references. i know, i know.. but there actually is something as too many. so, this book was really fast paced, but also kinda slow burn. this book has the MOST SWOON WORTHY MOMENTS, like this love between them is something that could never happen to me, not even in my wildest dreams 😭

During the day: If you have a flexible schedule, you may find it helpful to take breaks during the day to read a book. Charlie and Bailey were definitely not perfect characters either. They had very real flaws, but that was one of the things I liked best about the book — they were friends who cared for each other in spite of their flaws. During your commute: If you take public transportation or have a long commute, you may find it helpful to use that time to read.This is a must-read novel for all those who fall in the reading age of 14 years and up and grade level of 9 and up. She was wearing her I'm the problem T-shirt, the one she'd bought the day after Midnights came out. In my opinion, When Harry Met Sally just really doesn’t make sense in a YA setting or even really in any setting. I just think that it’s its own thing and should be left alone. It’s a movie in my mind that requires less from the plot and everything from the actors’ performances and personalities…which is so hard to capture in book form. Because while the book had a grip on the plot, the characters just didn’t quite fit. And while I’m not a huge When Harry Met Sally fan, I’m so happy the secondary relationship made it into the book!! I loved the drama of that bowling date. And did I absolutely eat up when he remembered her popcorn eating habits? OF COURSE I did I’m not a robot. I really enjoyed the second half of the book and think I’d have had a lot less issues if I’d have just waited on the ARC and grabbed the audiobook instead. I notice quirks of writing a lot less via audio and Jesse Vilinsky has me loving everything her voice touches.

its been 3 years and.. theyre both trainees at a job training, working in the same unit. sparks fly between them, so will they become friends.. or something more? Lynn Painter is a versatile author known for crafting romantic comedies tailored for both teen and adult audiences. Her literary portfolio includes engaging titles such as “ Better Than the Movies,” “Mr. Wrong Number,” “The Do-Over,” and “Betting on You.” I opened my eyes, and there was Mr. Nothing, standing in the aisle, his mouth hard as he looked just as happy to see me as I was to see him.Before bedtime: Many people find that reading before bedtime helps them unwind and relax, which can promote better sleep. Whyyyyyyy? Why was this smug, sarcastic jerk even part of my experience? He’ s ruining flying for me, I thought as I scanned my boarding pass and started down the Jetway, which was ironic when flying was the only thing I didn’t hate about the day. I absolutely think that Lynn Painter writes some of the best banter I have ever read in rom-coms. I LOVED the way Bailey and Charlie brought the slowly building tension through well placed snark and sarcasm with a hint of some real feelings. The Eye opened again and the dude glared at me. He lifted his mouth and said something to his girlfriend that prompted them to actually move forward. Finally. I heard his girlfriend chirp about how much she was going to miss him, and I could see by his profile that he was kind of half smiling and not saying anything as they stumbled forward, hand in hand.
