Meet Cute Diary by Emery Lee

REVIEW: “Meet Cute Diary” by Emery Lee

I have to start off by saying I haven’t been this frustrated (in a good way!) with a MC in a long time. But I love the frustration I have with Noah because it proves how authentic this story feels! And because I just care so much for Noah’s happiness and completely understand getting caught up in romance and finding one’s HEA. Emery has crafted a genuine romance that is epically meta, spritzed with just enough pop culture references (Haley Reinhart, Percy Jackson, and Boba? HELL YES), and incredibly personal. Devin is my favorite character; e is a beautiful exploration of what it means for Trans (as well as other LGBTQ+ peeps) to feel seen and heard, all while finding oneself and figuring out what identity and pronouns work best. I am so excited for Trans readers to get their hands on this book and not only have the representation they need in literature but also have something that gives them hope for their own happily ever afters.
