3.5 stars

This isn’t my favorite Christina Lauren, but I think it’s still solid. I wish the structure had been a little different, maybe inserting the London flashbacks throughout the book instead of being told in such a linear fashion. I also that that first section with them in London is too long. I like it, it’s sweet, but I wanted to see more of their current-day dynamic, and that part honestly felt a little rushed.

I did like the movie-making aspect of this book, and I could absolutely see this being a movie itself.

Where this book loses a little something for me is in the big conflicts. Maybe I’m just naive, but the big kerfuffle (yes, I just used the word ‘kerfuffle’) that arises at the end just doesn’t seem like something that ANYONE would care about. I just felt it was a little convoluted, and I wasn’t convinced that it would’ve become as big of a scandal as the book wanted me to think it was.

I still really enjoy Christina Lauren, but this doesn’t come close to the Unhoneymooners in my heart.
