Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld
2.75

 I have a lot of mixed feelings on this one. For one, it felt very long. The first half was kind of like a behind the scenes look at an SNL type show which was fun but also not my thing so didn't really care. 

The middle was the two MCs emailing back and forth and HATED İt, it went on WAY too long and just really annoyed me.

The third part was my favourite and it was nice. I love celebrity romances, they're just such a fun fantasy and always enjoy reading them. The awkwardness and anxiety at the beginning of their relationship was fun because it felt so relatable and real in a way that rom coms usually aren't. I'm not sure how feel about this booking having taken place during COVID. It was my first covid read, and would have rather it not been there but get it. It will be interesting to see how it dates the book decades from now.
