The Rom-Commers
by Katherine Center
The Rom-Commers by Katherine Center is a fun read that will have you smiling from ear to ear and laughing out loud at times. This was my first Katherine Center book and it did not disappoint!
Writing: 5/5
I really enjoyed the flow and pacing of this book. I liked that at times I felt like Emma was talking directly to me. It felt like we were friends and she was telling me about her experiences..
Plot: 4/5
I enjoyed the premise of this book. I liked that there were multiple parts to this story such as Charlie and his ex-wife, Emma's family, Emma and Charlie's relationship, Emma and her sister, etc. There was some heavier topics that were explored really well.
Characters: 5/5
Emma was a great FMC. She was vulnerable but also brave and had determination. She was relatable and I felt like I wanted to be her friend. Charlie was unlikable at first but as we got to learn about him I understand some of his words and actions. They both had depth and character growth in the story. There were side characters that I enjoyed as well such as Emma's dad and her sister.
I also listened to the audiobook of this book. Narration was by Katherine Center and Patti Murin. I enjoyed the narration and would recommend the audio.
Overall, I am a fan of Katherine Center and will definitely be reading more of her books.
This book will be published on June 11, 2024. Make sure to read this book if you are fan of romantic comedies!
