The Near Miss
by Lily Joseph
Rating: 4/5
The Near Miss is a light-hearted romance about the invisible string theory.
This book is definitely a slow burn, especially considering the main characters spend the better part of the book trying to “kill” each other. And while slow burns might not be for everyone; I think the author was able to make it very worthwhile through all their incidents and near-misses.
I really liked both Wren and Nick - I was rooting for them since the beginning. My favourite character though had to be Edie, she really made a lot of the book for me.
The only place where I feel this did lack was the actual romance aspect, simply because we did not get to read enough of it. There is just such a big build-up to them finally meeting, that it was almost disappointing that their romance was rushed.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the author’s style of writing, humour and plot - will definitely be reading future books in a heartbeat.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with this ARC.
