Wish I Were Here by Melissa Wiesner

3.0

This seemed like a cute romance with an interesting plot (Catherine basically loses her identity overnight) but it ended up being more about self discovery with a romance side plot.
Which wasn’t what I expected nor hoped for so that led to some disappointment on my part. 

I struggled to get into the story from the beginning, and I never really connected with nor cared for the characters.

The romance between Catherine and Luca was somewhat lackluster, there wasn’t really any chemistry between them and I just wasn’t invested.

Might be because Luca’s character wasn’t very fleshed out at all. The only thing I remember about him is that he had tattoos..
I enjoyed some of the other characters and subplots, though.

Overall, an interesting story that didn’t deliver for me.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the arc in exchange for an honest review.
