The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston

emotional funny hopeful lighthearted medium-paced

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

3.5

good but not great. I felt like there were so many elements that weren’t quite fleshed out? And so many minor plot holes. Why was heather suddenly nice?? How did her dad/everyone suddenly know which books were hers?? Why was ben allowed to be his grandmother’s editor?? How did he even find her book? As a whole, I felt like I was told rather than shown that they were falling in love? But maybe I wasn’t in the mindset to read this & that’s why I’m having a tough time lol. But I digress. I just felt like I was reading to get it over with rather than because I wanted to know what was happening. A fun premise, but not as good as I had hoped.
