“An eight-hour flight, and there’s no movie,” I say to myself, glaring at the screenless seat back in front of me. “Maybe they’re hoping your life flashing in front of your eyes will be distraction enough.” 

➽ The Unhoneymooners is a fun, summery Romance! The story follows Olive and Ethan who are the only guests at a wedding who don't get food poisoning. Therefore, Olive's sister Ami and Ethan's brother can't go on their (non-refundable) honeymoon. Despite hating each other, Olive and Ethan decide to take the trip to Maui, instead of just letting it go to waste! I really liked their bickering and hate-to-love romance. There was some great tension from the get-go, as both of them have a long-standing dislike for each other. I liked that Olive struggles with feeling less lucky than her twin sister Ami and feeling like she's just a magnet for bad luck. This was the perfect summer read, as the setting is a tropical paradise! I liked Olive and Ethan slowly growing closer together despite their previous bad experiences. The ending was a bit rushed, as we're getting a completely different storyline about Ami that causes a lot of drama!
