A review by thelarlbookworm
The Launch Date by Annabelle Slator

funny lighthearted medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

First of all, the front cover immediately drew me to this book, and when I read the Blurb... I knew this was going to be good!

Little did I know how it would be even BETTER than my first thought.

This story follows Grace and Eric, two friends in rival dating apps who became enemies and then are both put up for the same promotion... I mean, what could go wrong? Right?

I absolutely love this pair. Grace was lovely, but it was great was seeing her grow as a person and learn about herself again after a breakup. 

I loved Eric from the moment I met him, and it was great being proved right though the sexual tension between these two was stifling at times 😆. 

The story was fun, a brilliant pace, and extremely witty plus set in a dating app company, just made that even better. 

Grace and Eric were hilarious together, and we're a delight to read.

If you want a fun read, full of laughs and sexual tension, then this book is for you! It is a brilliant debut by Annabelle.
