He's Cancelled by Sophie Ranald

3.0

⭐️⭐️.5/5

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookoture for the chance to read and review Sophie Ranald’s newest release; He’s Cancelled out on June 23!

This is my third Sophie Ranald book, and probably my least favorite.

I enjoyed Just Sayin’ and loved Thank You, Next. So when I heard she had a new release coming out? I instantly requested it and couldn’t wait! Her books are always so funny, quick, and enjoyable. This one was such a disappointment!

I didn’t like a single character. Not a one. Daisy was absolutely terrible and Archie was just a dud. The whole book is about Nat dealing with this wedding that everyone else is planning for her, and not having the guts to say what she wants and does or doesn’t like. That’s it. And it got old, fast. It got so repetitive that it got to the point where I just wanted to yell at Nat and skip to the end just to see how this all plays out.

My god the emphasis on material things was extra. I get that was the point but I DONT CARE. I don’t care about brand names and type of handwriting. There was way too much emphasis on it and it should have been cut short.

Also, why did it take so long for the plot to solve itself? It happened pretty abruptly with four chapters left in the story. No build up or anything. It just…happened. It was not satisfying. I was just so bored!

The one consistent thing with her other books though, is that the humor is there. But other than that - this one fell short for me unfortunately. I will still read her other works, and hopefully they’re better than this one was.
