✨ ARC Review ✨
Thank you so much SimonTeen for this NetGalley ARC!!
NLTM is the sequel to Better Than the Movies and it is AMAZING!!! I was so excited when I saw that my ARC request was accepted!
This is a second chance rom-com with banter, dual POV, pining, forced proximity, and fake dating. Plus, we get cameos from Emilie & Nick (The Do-Over) and Bailey & Charlie (Betting On You)!!
Little summary breakdown:
- Liz and Wes are in college now, and they have both matured and grown A LOT in the past 2 YEARS
- Little Liz is gone
- Wes is a simp
- Learn some baseball terminology
- Prepare to have your heart break for Wes
- Cry
This book put me on a rollercoaster of emotions and I loved every second of it. If you loved BTTM, read this. If you’ve read anything by Lynn Painter, love YA books, love romance books, and/or if you’re like me and hate straight up romance movies, but decide to try out a romance book just to see how the genre in the book world is, READ BOTH BTTM and NLTM. BTTM was my first romance book and I fell down the rabbit hole.
Thank you Lynn Painter for continuing Wes and Liz’s story ❤️ I can’t wait to read your next YA novel
