Ruby Spencer's Whisky Year by Rochelle Bilow

DID NOT FINISH: 48%

---

It became clear the Roo was not going to tell Grace and Brochan, two people who were incredibly kind to her, the secret she knew. Because of a pinky promise with the cool female mayor who she has no reason to trust. Miscommunication is one of my least fave tropes and this one promised to be above and beyond, so I bowed out. Plus, as swoon-worthy as Brochan is, I wasn’t feeling any real chemistry.

ok but seriously at 36% Roo learned this wild secret and didn’t turn around and immediately tell Grace and Brochan. Like. In what world is an American chain that’s themed like a Scottish pub a good idea in an actual Scottish town? And where is her loyalty? Miss Mayor seems cool but the man she’s into and the woman she’s living with /making a cookbook with deserved better.
