How to Catch a Prince by Ana Ashley
2.0
Meh. That's how I felt at the end of this.
Did it have sweet and cute moments between Charlie and Kris? Sure. But did that make up for everything else? Not really, no.
The writing was very sophomoric, very silly at times. Charlie and Kris at times read as fairly immature.
It was fairly boring for most of it. At first it took a bit for these two to meet and just that set up was really boring for me and hard to get past. But even once they met, things were going slow. I was reading this going like "wait did I see that this is below 200 pages? How?" It felt like it was going on forever and I don't think I should feel that with a book, especially a shorter one.
I did start to skim parts around 40% in this, especially near the end because I just was losing interest. I almost DNF'ed this several times, but in fairness it did have interesting parts here and there to keep me from DNF'ing.
The "steam" was also minimal and very quickly written - like maybe a paragraph or two max for the sex scenes except for like...one that was maybe a page lol.
I didn't connect with any of the secondary characters either, and barely connected with our main characters.
Overall this just wasn't a win for me. It could have been a lot more interesting than it was, so this just didn't work for me. Thumbs down for me. Do not recommend.
