Oh, I am such a sucker for the childhood-friends-become-lovers trope, and this book did not disappoint in that respect! I'm not a huge fan of the fake-dating trope, however, but the author makes charming use of it. June and Levi are childhood friends who've drifted apart, but re-connect in their home town after both are dumped by their exes in a spectacularly public fashion. I liked watching June and Levi's friendship get rekindled and then build into something more. The side plot of wedding planning together feels a bit much though, like another layer of forced proximity is being piled on when it's not really needed. The themes of regret and loss throughout the book give a bit of depth to help offset the shallower fake-dating premise of the main storyline. It's always nice to see a main character focus on personal growth as well as relationship growth, like June does. My thanks to NetGalley for an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review! ( ) Old friends + fake dating = a real relationship...call it formulaic, but it works. The Break-Up Pact is adorable, and although some parts are slightly predictable I really enjoyed it. There were fully fleshed out characters who weren't perfect and great friendships, family relationships and found family. Thanks to NetGalley for a copy of the book in exchange for an early review. näyttää 2/2 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
Most Anticipated by Goodreads, Cosmo, and more! Two best friends who haven't spoken in ten years pretend to date after break-ups with their respective exes go viral, in this delightfully fun and deeply emotional new novel from New York Times bestselling author Emma Lord. June and Levi were best friends as teenagers--until the day they weren't. Now June is struggling to make rent on her beachside tea shop, Levi is living a New York cliché as a disillusioned hedge fund manager and failed novelist, and they've barely spoken in years. But after they both experience public, humiliating break-ups with their exes that spread like wildfire across TikTok rabbit holes and daytime talk shows alike, they accidentally make some juicy gossip of their own--a photo of them together has the internet convinced they're a couple. With so many people rooting for them, they decide to put aside their rocky past and make a pact to fuel the fire. Pretending to date will help June's shop get back on its feet and make Levi's ex realize that she made a mistake. All they have to do is convince the world they're in love, one swoon-worthy photo opp at a time. Two viral break-ups. One fake relationship. Five sparkling, heart-pounding dates. June and Levi can definitely pull this off without their hearts getting involved. Because everyone knows fake dating doesn't come with real feelings. Right? Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
