Review by bookrecsbyjess - Waiting for Tom Hanks

Waiting for Tom Hanks by Kerry Winfrey

2.5

lighthearted medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Loveable characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book was definitely a cover buy for me, and sadly the cover is better than the story.

What I liked:

Annie’s Uncle Don: He was the best character because he was funny and didn’t care what people thought of him.
The ending: The very ending of the story was cute and romantic.

What I didn’t like:

Annie: She was such an irritating character. I couldn’t understand her hatred for Drew at the beginning of the story since he was just flirting with her. Also, her obsession with romantic comedies was annoying because she compared EVERYTHING in her relationships to what happens in movies. She was immature and an idiot for what she did to cause the conflict in the story.
So many clichés!!!: I usually don’t mind a few clichés in books, but everything was so predictable especially the conflict. I almost didn’t finish this book because I knew exactly what was coming.

Unfortunately, I would not recommend reading this book.
