The Write Place by Allie Samberts
5.0
I recieved this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
The Write Place is such a lovely, slow burn romance. There is so much to love about this novel, with characters that felt realistic, intelligent and witty banter, and a build up that is so worth the wait to get there. A few of the things I loved the most:
- Mac and her best friend Jenny talk like I talk with my girlfriends. The friendship is just as central to the story as the romance, and felt familiar in the best ways.
- The scene in the coffeeshop... This is one of many moments like this, but I loved how this scene demonstrates the growing depth of relationship between the characters. Also who doesn't love coffee and books and snuggling up in a bookstore to read quietly with someone you love?! It was just a quiet, beautiful scene.
- Mac EATS. Like a real person. It's amazing how often food is left out of romance novels when so much of courtship and life in general revolves around shared meals. I love that she has an appetite.
- Daniel, of course. He is handsome, vulnerable, and definitely sexy.
- The environment.. I don't believe I've ever read a romance that takes place inside of a school/from a teacher's POV, which makes The Write Place stand out on it's own aside from all the fantasy jobs many romance MCs have.
- Consent is sexy! That's all I'm going to say on that.
I could go on and on. If you are into romance novels, this is a definite yes for you. If romance isn't usually your genre, The Write Place would be a great introduction. Highly recommended!
