Bed and Breakup by Susie Dumond
2.0
Before I get into my review of “Bed and Breakup,” I would like to thank NetGalley and The Dial Press for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!
Alright, I’m going to be extremely honest and say that this book was not for me. I was trying to keep an open mind while reading this book, especially since it’s a second-chance romance, however it just fell flat in my opinion.
I did not appreciate how Molly is treated like a child on behalf of Robin and Key. More so Key, but Robin does as well towards the middle to end of the book. Like she can’t handle adult problems she signed up for.
Another thing I didn’t like was how forced the chemistry felt, and in my opinion, it just felt… awkward? For the first quarter of this book they *hated* each other, then the next page they would be kissing or sharing a bed. They’d talk about their past and then make out or have sex. They’d have a very necessary conversation about their relationship, then out of nowhere have sex. (Which was *very* unwarranted in my opinion.)
I also feel like both characters were equally in the wrong when it came to how this relationship formed again. I felt the ending of this book was really rushed. I wish we as readers could have seen the relationship *truly* start to bloom a few chapters earlier than when it did.
Overall, I would give this book a 2.5/5 stars. Thank you again to NetGalley and The Dial Press for the early E-Copy.
