Süß und unterhaltsam mit tollen Protagonisten und Storyline.
This couple did not make it past the epilogue
Das war riiiichtig cute für zwischendurch aber um ehrlich zu sein kein Buch woran man noch lange zurückdenkt. Die Chemie passt jedoch perfekt, die Enemies to Lovers Vibes in einer kleinen Stadt sind voll da und werden komplett ausgereizt. Ich konnte mich mit Emily sooooooo gut identifizieren und habe es geliebt, wie die Autorin das Gefühl von „niemals genug zu sein“ und starken Selbstzweifeln eingesetzt hat. Dieser Umgang damit, besonders in den Anfangsstadien einer Dating Phasen waren so gut gemacht. Ich glaube viele Personen, denen es ähnlich damit gut und zuuu viel überdenken, werden hier „gesehen“. Alles in allem eine süße Story für zwischendurch aber es hat mir deutlich mehr Tiefe, Detail und das gewisse Etwas gefehlt für ein 4 oder 5 Sterne Buch. Es war trotzdem richtig schön und ich habs super gerne gelesen. Für zwischendurch würde ich es definitiv empfehlen! I looooved
(POTENTIALLY) A NEW NO. 1 BOOK BOYFRIEND Since it's part 3 of the series, we're already locked into this lovely small town of Rome, know the people, know the gossip, know the drill. And once again, I enjoyed every single second I spent there. SERIOUSLY, WHY DID I KEEP THIS BOOK WAITING FOR 2 YEARS? Secondly, can we PLEASE talk about the giant, big, fat green flag that Jack was? How he devotionally supported Emily with her secret side project restored my faith in the male part of society a little bit. I truly think Levi (Love On The Brain) and Thomas (Ride With Me) are going to have to share the podium with Jack from now on. Likewise, the chemistry between those two (Emily and Jack, I mean, not Levi and Thomas) was to die for. Despite their alleged dislike for each other, their undeniable attraction came through pretty much every time they ran into each other. The story itself was (surprise, surprise) a true joy as well. Like, every single thing happening entertained me exactly in the way I needed it to. At the same time, though, I could relate to Emily's struggles with everyone moving away too.
