rickireadss's review against another edition
4.5
i might have liked this one better than TSLD?!?!?! and i LOVED that book and reread it like immediately after i finished it back in 2021. i absolutely ate this one up. i truly loved both rosie and lucas' characters. like they were so genuine, so likeable, and a little too relatable... i really enjoyed the plot of them faking dates/parts of a relationship to help her with her book - as a sucker for the fake relationship trope, i devoured that part. i think they were both very HOT as well - the shower scene?!!?!? ELENA, I AM IN LOVE.
i wish we had just a *little* more burn as part of the slow burn, but alas i survived on what we got. also, i wish we had gotten more insight on lucas' past, like a hint more, but overall a fantastic read and i cannot wait to read the long game!!!

I was disappointed after reading this because it fell a bit flat compared to TSLD which I absolutely loved…
I do however LOVE Rosie with all of my heart, she have the best energy and she is just a character I would love to be friends with! Lucas however, disappointed me:( Even tho he and Rosie had some cute moments, I feel like he was mostly sexually attracted to her. The stuff I actually liked with him (except for his dog) was his cooking (bc guys who cook is really attractive) and that he helped the elderly woman next to Lina’s apartment!
And one thing I haven’t liked about either of Elena’s books is the spicy scene’s. During those scenes in both books I just wanted to stop reading because I found it so awkward🙃🫣
I think it was stupid of Rosie to not tell her dad and brother about her becoming an author and lie to them, I think she should have told them sooner about it. They probably would have supported her in her author hood.
And lastly, I figured out what Ollie worked with really fast, LOVE Ollie<3
