See You Soon Broadway by Melissa Baldwin

tien's review against another edition

2.0

I'm not a big fan of chick-lit though I have to admit that they're usually quite easy to read. I was mostly interested in the premise of finding her grandmother's journals which prompted this particular journey & soul searching of the protagonist however this didn't play as big a part as I thought it would. The main characters are quite likeable though I found some secondary characters to be rather flat. I would also usually avoid love triangles and while this wasn't a big issue for the most part in this novel, at the end of it (the way it ended or maybe not ended), I wanted to headdesk. I don't think this will be one I follow up with.

See You Soon Broadway is the first in series by Melissa Baldwin. I’ve heard so many wonderful things about Melissa’s writing and it’s all completely true. Her story was thoroughly entertaining and well-written. Filled with subtle humor, romance, major life decisions and changes, this was a wonderful story to read and I can’t wait to read the next one, which is about to be published!!!

The first book in the series begins the story of Maris finding herself, both in her personal and professional life. There’s an interesting twist where she begins to learn about her grandmother that she was named for and how some of her grandmothers’ past connects with her current life and potential future. We’ve got an interesting love triangle, an annoying co-worker and some thoroughly entertaining characters. I can’t wait to read the second novel to see what happens next in Maris’s life… The wait won’t be long because the second in the series, See You Later Broadway is being released soon!!

My only regret upon finishing this novel was waiting so long to read one of her stories!
