bookish92 's review for:
The A to Z of Us
by Hannah Doyle
fast-paced
I want to preface this review by saying that I'm very picky when it comes to romance books, and what I like and don't like.
Having said that, here are my thoughts.
The premise of this book sounded so cute that I was excited to get into it. But unfortunately it didn't work for me, for a few reasons.
Firstly the pacing. I'm not someone who longs for a super slow burn romance, I'm happy for things to move along at a quicker pace, but this just felt too fast for me. Especially with a female lead who was supposedly against the idea of Love. It moved a bit too quickly for the first meeting to immediately dating, and personally I prefer it when the couple get to know each other a little before dating/falling for each other with very little to go on other than looks and initial impressions.
The second thing is that I never really felt like the leads had a connection. Which obviously in a romance, is something you want to have.
Thirdly I didn't really like either of the characters. I found Alice to be immature for her age, and I didn't love the way Zach handled certain situations.
Overall this book did have some cute moments, and I think if you enjoy faster paced romances without much conflict. Then you'd probably enjoy this one.
But personally it wasn't for me.
