Something to Talk About by Meryl Wilsner
4.0
funny lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I thought this was funny and seeet. I enjoyed the trope of mistaken dating or people assuming someone is dating. I would have preferred it if it went into fake dating . I enjoyed the dual perspectives and the behind the scenes look of Hollywood since the main characters are a screenwriter and her assistant . I thought the sexual tension, inner thoughts and ”accidental kisses” were great. I would have preferred more steam though. I also appareictaed and enjoyed the deeper topics including addressing racism, prejudice,  sexism, sexual harassment and family dynamics. Overall a fun book that I would recommend especially to those that don’t like steam.
