annarella 's review for:
The Road Trip
by Beth O'Leary
I think this is one of those books I will have to read again in the future because my current review is biased by comparing it to The Flatshare and The Switch.
I loved the characters in the previous two books but I couldn't connect to the characters in the Road Trip.
I appreciated that they were flawed but I also felt them a bit forced.
I liked the two timelines but I felt that there was less humour and I missed it.
Beth O'Leary's books always mixed very serious themes like abuse or grief with humour and the mix worked wonderfully.
This time it didn't always worked for me.
This is a good novel but I had very high expectations and I feel as I got a good novel but not at the same level of the previous ones and this is the reason why i think that I will re-read it in the future so I won't compare it to the Flatshare/The Switch.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
