The Love Scribe: A Novel by Amy Meyerson

2.0

the premise was interesting, but the plot was predictable and the “twists” were not surprising. i liked three of the characters, but two of them were not introduced until the last quarter of the book. i found madeline frustrating, rude, and annoying. there was no character growth for madeline, and i predicted the whole plot, almost to a T, from the first few chapters. i honestly think this is a 2.5 rounded up. i’m generally really lenient and casual with rating (typically going with 4 stars), but this one did not have me hooked or enthralled. it took me much longer to read this than it should have because i struggled to connect to it, despite understanding and relating to so many of the characters.
