NO!!

This was so bad. There was no plot, nothing!! The humor?? Nonexistent, it just was not funny. The romance was so unrealistic too.

What was the reason that these two idiots like each other??? NOTHING. They have no chemistry and it was just so weird and so awkward. The way that the love interest talked to the main character was so different toward his characterization and honestly it was so weird.

I hate how it was “so hot” for him to be possessive and aggressive about EVERY GODDAMN THING. Like chill the hell out. Imagine your boyfriend having a conniption over you overcooking your pasta because you “could have hurt yourself.” Literally get over it, it’s not that deep.

Okay, and the fact that the simple fisherman is SECRETLY a millionaire? Bitch PLEASE!!!! Miss me with that bullshit. And the fact that he is so set into routine, but don’t worry, he changes every single routine and his entire personality to fit what the main character wants!! Like what?? This is what is romantic now? Changing everything about who you are so that you are more likable to the person you like? Such a bad message. Also, of course he is a BIG STRONG MANLY MAN!! We have to hear about how MASCULINE he is. Bitch his name is Brendan, just stop.

Also the main character pissed me off. We get it, she is hot and perfect. All the descriptions of her taking pictures are so embarrassing like GIRL please stop trying to be sexy, and being an Instagram influencer is not something to be that proud of.

What’s the point of this story?? “Even Instagram influencers deserve love!” These contemporary rom com books keep getting more and more unrealistic with their plots and I’m not here for it.

Also, this book was boring.
