This book wasn’t really my jam. I certainly didn’t think it was “an absolutely laugh out loud romance novel”.
I always find it hard to get through books that start off with the guy/girl you know they don’t end up with and this one had us starting before she even met the wrong guy… so I knew it was going to be a slog for me. You have to go through all the meeting and first dates etc when you know it’s not going to work out.
I did like the side characters and Henry as a love interest but the whole dream thing and dream guy just didn’t do it for me personally.
Single POV, no spice, 16+
