Funny You Should Ask by Elissa Sussman
3.5

Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No

This was a cute dual timeline rom com. I liked the idea of telling parts of the story via blog/article type entries but found it hard to root for the couple. Im not a big fan of the miscommunication trope and the entire plot is based on a weekend spent together 10 years prior I just didn’t feel the chemistry between them especially in the present timeline… 

themes: actor/journalist romance; second chance; the one that got away; miscommunication and forced proximity tropes
