📖 - I just finished The Break-Up Pact by Emma Lord, which was a book of my Afterlight subscription. Unfortunately, this one didn’t quite work for me. It took me much longer to get through than I expected, and I just didn’t feel any real chemistry between the main characters. In fact, I found both of them a little toxic at times, which made it hard to root for their relationship. The tropes (fake dating and childhood friends to lovers) might just not be my thing, but overall, this book fell flat for me.
