This was an adorable story I listened to via audiobook. It was a light, breezy book that had me chuckle a few times. I could picture this being a Netflix movie.
fast-paced
Just too darn cute. Reading it makes me feel so cheesy and sweet. Watch out for the ants.
This book was so cutesy. The secret pen pal, arch nemesis, turned friend, then more. Totally predictable, yet, still entertaining to read. One thing i really didn’t like were Pepper and Jack’s parents and how they treated their kids. Jack’s parents pushing this family business on to him without even asking if that’s what he wants to do and Peppers mom making her fight her battles over some college bf. Yes what Jack’s dad to Pepper’s mom was shitty especially the whole business stealing but that’s not something Pepper and Jack should have to deal with. It felt like Pepper’s mom cared more about Twitter and this college feud than her own kid. But besides that i loved the romance between Jack and Pepper, the setting (NY), and the epilogue. The epilogue was so cute and i’m glad they both figured things out with their parents and siblings and figured out what they wanted to do with their lives. I do wish we would’ve saw Ethan and Jack have a serious convo about the whole “golden twin” tho.

I had “Tweet cute” on my tbr for a lot of time, and I finally read it last week. WHAT. WAS. I. THINKING. Seriously, why did I ignore this for so long? I had such a great time reading it!
Let’s start with the characters: Pepper and Jack. While both of them attend the same private school in NYC, they couldn’t be any more different. Pepper is an overachiever. Although, to be honest, she's more of a lonely girl who's thrown herself into school and sports to create a way too full timetable and keep her mother -and her fears about the future- at bay. Jack, on the other hand, is more of a joker and often feels he lives in the shadow of his twin, golden boy, diving team captain and student president Ethan. I enjoyed how they slowly go from being kind of frenemies and classmates to friends and partners. Also, I loved how Emma Lord set their interactions in two different types of social media: Twitter and Weazel, an app where students from Stone Hall chat anonymously.
We can’t skip the tweets: those were hilarious, I would love to see that happen for real (or maybe not, because I don’t think fast-food chains attacking small businesses would go that well). And the BAKING, I love baking, so Pepper and her sister’s creations won me (I definitely am NOT thinking on trying any of those recipes, at all).
The pace was good also, although there were a few things I didn’t get. Like, what’s wrong with Pepper’s sister, Paige? The little information we got didn’t quite explain such anger towards her whole family. The thing with the parents… Well, I won’t go into much detail to avoid possible spoilers (I know, spoilers? Everyone has already read this), but most of their actions were just WRONG. Someone get counseling for that people, especially for Pepper’s mum.
Also, have I already said I love memes? That was probably one of the things I liked the most about “Tweet cute”, it used such a lighthearted humor and made reading very enjoyable. And the word puns? ‘Cheesy romance’, ‘tweet cute’? Emma Lord has my heart and a place in my bookshelf, forever.

This book was so cute I don't even know what to think! It has a bit too much drama for my taste, but any lover of YA contemporary romance will love this book.
Jack was the sweetest, and cutest book boyfriend! Is it weird that from those two sentences a few pages in, when Pepper just says his name and that he's the class clown, that I knew he was going to be the love interest? I hadn't even read the synopsis or anything, I just had a feeling from all the romance I've read before.
Definitely a good book to read after a haunting Thriller to be able to sleep
