Reviews with content warning for Miscarriage - A Not So Meet Cute

So much secondhand embarrassment. A few very awkward situations meant to be funny, I guess. Plus the set up for failure where neither Huxley nor Lottie’s sister tell Lottie who the meeting is with, and then they get pissed when she doesn’t react exactly the way they want her to - seems like a cheap way to add drama. I usually like Meghan Quinn’s books, but this one missed the mark.

Huxley has some serious problems if he doesn’t know how to be kind in such a basic way throughout the beginning of the book, and meeting a woman doesn’t make someone learn that stuff… I need to read a book about a cinnamon roll after this.

Fun and easy read with all the angsty tropes we love - forced proximity, fake dating, enemies (sort of) to lovers. The characters were a little annoying at times though with not tonnes of depth, although they had good side characters and some development which was good. The spice was great, the ending was cute.

I enjoyed reading this even though Lottie could be a bit annoying at times. I think I would have rated it higher if it weren’t for the ending.

I really don’t like when they do the whole miscommunication big fight at the end, but then to propose as a way of trying to win her back - especially when they’ve really only known each other for just over a month?? All I could think of was when Chandler tried to do that in friends and Monica told him how stupid it was. But at least they actually knew each other well.

I wasn’t big on the lying thing cause it was really stupid (well really the whole contract was) but it was pretty funny and Huxley was much sweeter than I thought he was going to be.
