I love a good HEA!

This was an adorable teen romance that hit all the right places. Moments where I was giggling with excitement and others where I wanted to grab Lizzy and Wes’ shoulders and shake some sense into them!

The movies quoted and referenced throughout the book had me re-watching some of my favourite romcoms of the 90s.

Ok, it was cute but Wes pissed me off

thinking Liz was still pinning after Michael. Also gave me the ick when he was smoking cigars with Liz, like gave her a potential cancer just for fun ffs. Y'ALL ARE 16/17

The chemistry was there, the kiss was cute and the book made tear up with the 3rd act conflict.
I will read The Do-Over but I hope Lynn did not pull the same shit again

I pleasantly enjoyed this book. I’m a sucker for quotes so starting each chapter w/ a romantic quote from famous rom coms, I adored it!

I loved how Lynn Painter wrote Wes’ character and how we got to know him as Libby got to know.

The end to me was awfully lackluster, I was thinking up several ways for it to end better than it did on the way there, but it wasn’t awful and was still cute. Just wanted something bigger there personally.

“ I fell in love with teasing you in the second grade, when I first discovered that I could turn your cheeks pink with just a word. Then I fell in love with you. “

“You look best when you’re you.”

“Society—wrongly— expects a pretty girl to eat a salad and pick at her food, but you wolf down a burger like a person who’s been starved for weeks. And probably raise by wolves.”

If you love boy next door, enemies to lovers, or fake dating tropes, you’ll probably pleasantly enjoy this book also.

This was SUCH a good book to end the year on. I've been wanting to read it for SO LONG, and after DNFing Salt Lane, I was just so ready to read a good book. And this book absolutely DELIVERED. I love rom-coms, I love romance books with fluff, and this is just the perfect book for me. I love it so much.

While I am slightly annoyed that the main couple both spell their names with 3 letters each, I love them too much to be annoyed. The BUILD-UP to the first kiss is PHENOMENAL. That being said, I wish that there were MORE KISSES. That first kiss is the only really descriptive one, and then the other one is RIGHT at the end. MORE KISSES, PLEASE. But Liz and Wes are SO cute, I just wish that there would've been more communication between the two of them regarding Michael and Alex, because miscommunication is one of THE worst tropes, if not the worst. I just wish we had seen more of them over all, because they're amazing and so cute. I wish that the side characters were also fleshed out more, particularly Wes and Michael's friends, since they're all really just portrayed as dumb jocks, and I would've liked to get to know them more. I LOVED Laney's development, and Liz's unfair and biased narration based on who she used to be when she was younger made for a really interesting contradiction, something I LOVE in books. When the narrator of a story is untrustworthy, the twist is a surprise to both them AND us, since we automatically trust the main character.

I love the relationship between Liz and her stepmom, and even her dad on a smaller scale. I immediately loved Helena because she was described as a "blond Lorelai Gilmore," and I've always been a big Gilmore Girls fan. I love how this book brought them closer together, and ended up in a lot of character development on Liz's end. Her relationship with Wes also gives her a lot of development, which is AWESOME.

Anyways, GREAT book, I love it so much.
