Summer Ever After by Jane Crittenden
Did not finish book.
1.0
"Summer Ever After" by Jane Crittenden is marketed as a contemporary romance novel set in the vibrant city of Barcelona. The story follows Alice, who, after a decade, returns to the city where she once found love and heartbreak. Working alongside her former flame, Andy, she navigates old feelings and new possibilities in the culinary world of Spain.
Whilst the culinary journey through Barcelona can be appreciated, there are issues with character development and the overall narrative structure. It appears that the book's editing process might not have addressed these concerns adequately. The back and forth between past and present day could have been more fluent, instead it made for a choppy read as they implied story lines didn't align.
I'm split between DNFing this title or pushing through to see if it improves at some point.
Currently at 33%.
