When Grumpy Met Sunshine by Charlotte Stein
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.
DNF at 30%.
I had high hopes for this book. It had a ton of things I love: ghostwriting for a celebrity romance, a sports star, and grumpy/sunshine.
Unfortunately, the attempted humor was too dry for my taste, and I found myself zoning in and out of the paragraphs upon paragraphs of the main character’s inner thoughts. I decided to put down the book when the closest we got to any actual chemistry was hair braiding, and the “secret nerdy boy” angle wasn’t peaking my interest in the slightest. I thought about staying for the spice that was promised, but it wasn’t worth it for me as the plot wasn’t there.
Thank you to St. Martin’s Press for a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.
