A review by thebookedpath
A Merry Little Meet Cute by Julie Murphy, Sierra Simone

3.0

Not what I was expecting. Had the premise of being really good but I think the execution fell. The tension of the MC's "adult" employment being kept a secret didn't really feel needed when half the crew was involved in the same field. While there were a lot of spicey seems, they felt as if it was the same spicy motions but just a different background. (There was no build-up to a moment or different aspects despite a "suitcase" of ideas.) I did like the character of Nolan. I felt he was fleshed out more than the others because more of his backstory and troubles were discussed in a way that gave a good sense of who he was. I didn't feel that about the other characters. Lots of representation in this book for the LGBTQ community as well as those who have the diagnosis of being bipolar.
