bonreviewsbooks 's review for:
The Godparent Trap
by Rachel Van Dyken
Thank you to Valentine PR for the ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Read if you like:
• Life As We Know It (movie)
• Life’s Too Short, Abby Jiminez
• grumpy / sunshine
• forced proximity
• opposites attract
This was a quick, lighthearted read about two people who get thrown into parenthood and have to learn to live with each other. Colby and Rip were both likable enough to me, and I felt like the romance was drawn out an appropriate amount (I hate when it moves too quickly).
We come to understand that Colby and Rip went on a date sometime before the death of their friends/family and I never really understood why he so vehemently turned her down. He tries to act like she’s too messy or all over the place which is fine, but his reasons for that not being appealing never really connected the dots for me.
My biggest criticism is that the entire time I felt like it was surface level. I kept expecting to really dive deeper into the characters, their baggage, their grief. But I continued to feel like most of these were just glazed over. They seemed sad at times about their friends/family who died, but honestly I didn’t really feel it.
