Problematic Summer Romance by Ali Hazelwood
3.0

Unfortunately, this was not my favorite by Ali. While I still enjoyed her writing, I just was not feeling the chemistry between Conor and Maya. I want to believe that the age gap didn't bother me, but I had a hard time turning off the part of my brain that didn't buy that Conor fell for a 20-year-old after spending the weekend with her and other 20-year-olds. I also didn't love how much chasing Maya had to do for the relationship. I wasn't a huge fan of the ending in general, but also, why wasn't there an epilogue? If there were ever a couple that I didn't believe could last, it's this one, and Ali not writing their future made it feel like she agreed. My favorite part of this book was, by far, the Lukas and Scarlett cameo.
