A review by laurapellegrino92
Twelve Hours in Manhattan by Maan Gabriel
3.0
Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
As a huge NYC fan I was excited to read a story that explored the city and where I could relate to the areas and places visited, and whilst it delivered on that aspect, the book didn't deliver in the way I thought it would.
A cute rom-com story that explores two strangers meeting in a bar and sharing 12 hours in the city getting to know one another before they go their separate ways, but eventually ends up as a HEA.
I didn't hate it, in fact I enjoyed the premise of it, very hallmark movie-esque but the narrative felt stunted and disjointed at times. I liked what both of the characters had to offer, and the issues that came with both of them over the course of the story, but what lacked I guess was connection.
