Someone Just Like You by Meredith Schorr
1.0
1 star
Spoilers ahead:
I think this is it for me, Meredith's stories just dont work for me, this was better than As Seen On TV but still awful.
Listen, if an author wants to write a love story with HEA, their work is to convice the reader that the couple is the best couple on earth. Here it was the opposite, I stopped counting how many times I found myself thinking that Molly and Jude were better NOT together.
The cringyness of it all, in WHAT world does taking out a condom and saying 'Abracadabra!' is a good idea?
It took me so much time to get through this that I don't remember the things I hated from the first 50%. I do remember there was a fatphobic comment about someone being "chubby", which, red flag obviously.
I particulately don't care if there's pop culture references, but here Meredith was using one or two per chapter like c'mon! even try to do something new or original. I also stopped counting how many Beatles references there were.
Just, a bad book alltogether. I don't think I'll read Meredith's book from now on. They don't work for me. The End.
