Je sais pas trop quoi penser. J'ai vraiment aimé le début, ça ma fait rire ou en tout cas sourire mais vers le dernier 1/3 du livre je me suis ennuyée. Tout était déjà évident à mes yeux et j'avais juste envie de finir le livre et passer à autre chose plutôt que finir le livre parce que j'ai trop envie de savoir la fin.
L'audio était sympa, y'avait uniquement un narrateur masculin et il a bien fait son taf, le voix féminine qu'il faisait était pas cringe. Yay, Yay
RQ:
Je pense continuer la série un jours mais pas maintenant je plus vraiment dans le mood pour ce genre d'histoire, je veux un truc avec des sentiments profond, du drama et un plot d'enfer.
Je me suis apperçu que dans les livres ce que je préfère c'est quand ils sont plot-driven et pas-character avec des éléments que je vois pas sinon je m'ennuie, pour moi ça aucun intérêt de lire un livre ou tu peux déjà prédire tout les événements importants.
Extraits qui m'ont fait rire/ que j'ai aimé :
- Le Prologue
- Chapitre 1
- Chapitre 2
- Chapitre 3

« Earlier this month, I met a total babe at the gym. She worked out hard, then worked out even harder with me when I bent her over the back of the couch in my apartment. She texted me the next day, telling me how her thighs were aching, and she’d loved it. She said if I ever made it to Los Angeles, would I please look her up, because she wanted to ride my ride again.
Of course she did. Once you’ve had filet mignon, you don’t want to go back to hamburger helper. »
- Chapitre 2
« She walks toward me on Eighty-Second Street, her red hair like a sheet of flame. When she reaches me, she pretends she’s about to take a quarter from behind my ear.
“Look what I found. Wait. What’s that here?” She waves her hand behind my other ear and produces a tampon.
Her mouth falls into a shocked O. “Spencer Holiday. You’re carrying tampons now? When did you start getting your period?”
I crack up. »
- Chapitre 3
« She works kids’ parties, and he’s eating that up. She shows him some of her tricks. She makes his fork disappear, then his napkin, then his water glass.
“Wonderful. I bet it simply mesmerizes all the children. My girls would love that.”
Dude, you have teenagers. I highly doubt they’re keen on sleight of hand. »

Did anyone else get "Tangled" vibes from this read?
ANYWHO...
This was a good... albeit it felt short(?) book about two friends Spencer and Charlotte who end up engaged... or are they? The story follows the pair as they navigate through their story of being engaged and their relationship between each other.
I like the story. Granted it felt ALOT like the Tangled series. It was told from a male POV and it made me feel like I was reading Drew all over again. Spencer is funny and has an inner monologue that makes you wonder if your SO thinks the same way. I felt as if the story was a little rushed. I would have loved to have more from Nick or from them in college.
But overall it was a funny quick read!

Stop! This fucking boom was so cute. I loved it hard. Best friends to lovers. These two were so goofy and funny.
I love friends to lovers stories that are fun and steamy and just a little dramatic. This one satisfied on all accounts.
I loved Charlotte and Spencer. Their friendship was fun and when they decided to be pretend engaged the steam started to rise. The uptight family trying to buy the jewelry store was ridiculous and I really loved how Charlotte put the mom in her place.
The make up was fantastic too and I cannot wait to read the next book.

Love me some Lauren Blakely. I always know I’ll get a 4 star read but something about this one just worked. I read the books in this series out of order because that’s how I got them from the library. So I loved seeing the beginning of Spencer and Charlotte.
