A review by nikkitheninth
If We Were a Movie by Zakiya N. Jamal

funny lighthearted medium-paced

3.75

the concept of being hired for a job you never even applied to in this economy 😭

tho it was pretty glaringly obvious from the start who hooked Rochelle up with the job, i really loved the setting of a black-owned theater esp as a former cinephile. 

i liked the backstory between Rochelle and Amira and both characters respectively, but i did feel like the romance was a bit on the underdeveloped side. 

overall a very cute YA romance πŸ’–
