This book had so much potential to be great, but yet here we are with a 2/5. In no way he’ll did this book need roughly 60 chapters to drag out a predictable ending. …just not my cup of tea.
Because apparently I have become a person who enjoys romance novels.
I fell in love with the fact that two married people were writing about how much they were in love with each other. The concept was really fun. I just felt like the story dragged a little after the half way point.
A romance that's messy and has emotional cheating and lots of longing. I see it being popular with Emily Henry fans.

I'm a huge fan of the enemies to lovers trope and banter. That being said, the fights definitely made me sweat! I was in agony not knowing whether or not they could mend their relationship and FINALLY be together. I felt a lot of feels with this one, esp at the end.
Sometimes I have a hard time with second chance romances because I'm a huge softie and don't like seeing others get hurt in the process to get to their right person. With that in mind, I feel like Nathan handled it well, even though it was painful.

genuinely enjoyed this one…not my favorite ever though
I dunno.... It’s a writer-couple, writing about a writer-couple who wrote one book & now have been pushed back together to write another book. But a lot of what they’re writing about is not just fiction, but their own relationship. Life is art & art is life, etc. (And, no I’m not sure which ‘they’ I’m referring to -the authors, or the authors the authors are writing about, or both). It was entertaining enough that I read it in a day, and I did like Nathan & Katrina. But somehow the obstacles to their relationship just sometimes felt unconvincing.... and I don’t really like the device of ‘Something Big Happened But I’m Not Going To Tell You What it is Until 3/4 of the way through the book” - and by the time it comes, it’s pretty underwhelmingly predictable (Reminded me of “The People You Meet On Vacation” this way.)
Also, because I am a horrible pedant, have to point out the one spectacular typo I noticed: p. 283: “I’d prefer coming up with goofy pneumonic devices to remember everyone’s name.”
pneumonic is of/relating to the lungs, air.
mnemonic is the memory device to remember stuff.
