“An eight-hour flight, and there’s no movie,” I say to myself, glaring at the screenless seat back in front of me. “Maybe they’re hoping your life flashing in front of your eyes will be distraction enough.”
➽ The Unhoneymooners is a fun, summery Romance! The story follows Olive and Ethan who are the only guests at a wedding who don't get food poisoning. Therefore, Olive's sister Ami and Ethan's brother can't go on their (non-refundable) honeymoon. Despite hating each other, Olive and Ethan decide to take the trip to Maui, instead of just letting it go to waste! I really liked their bickering and hate-to-love romance. There was some great tension from the get-go, as both of them have a long-standing dislike for each other. I liked that Olive struggles with feeling less lucky than her twin sister Ami and feeling like she's just a magnet for bad luck. This was the perfect summer read, as the setting is a tropical paradise! I liked Olive and Ethan slowly growing closer together despite their previous bad experiences. The ending was a bit rushed, as we're getting a completely different storyline about Ami that causes a lot of drama!

I will say two things: this book is a very tame, fade-to-black sort of romance. I didn't think less of it for that - I just wouldn't go in expecting something different. AND #2, the main conflict of the story ends up going down with a ton of pretending-bad-things-aren't-happening-for-the-sake-of-peace-lowkey-gaslighting from multiple sources, including the male mc. He isn't the one who actually does The Bad Thing and he grovels for his part in it so I got over it, but it's something to note.
