A review by khylabevibin
Forever by Kris Bryant
4.0
Ten years ago, Savannah Edwards was a contestant on a lesbian dating show. She fell in love and got dumped on national television. When she’s invited to be the next bachelorette for the ten-year anniversary show the last thing she expected was to be the heartbreaker. Enter Lauren Lucas, the host and producer of the show who saved it from cancellation and revamped it into the hit show it is. Also struggling with a non-existent love life, it's no shock that these two are drawn together.
Forever by Kris Bryant is certainly an entertaining read, at times giving off the vibes of a telenovela and at others the lightness of an LMN rom-com. This also means it's not for everyone.
I'm quickly realizing that fluffy light, comedic and drama centred books aren't really my thing. By default, any books about reality tv fall into that section so I think I'm gonna stray away from this genre.
Nevertheless, this was a fine read! Though not very fulfilling and I'm slightly shocked at the lack of sexiness we normally get with Kris Bryant.
Savannah and Lauren were a cute pair but I found myself preferring Savannah with Alix, the non-binary-tattooed- sexy- smooth talking contestant on the show. This obviously wasn't the intent, maybe it's because Lauren and Savannah didn't really have any chemistry through their first meeting so it kind of left me on a blank slate with them whereas Alix immediately puts on their best charm in an attempt to swoon Savannah.
But this doesn't mean that I didn't like Lauren and Savannah together, in the end, I didn't mind it.
So I do recommend this if you're looking for a light read!
