I was confused the whole time. Sometimes mid-sentence people would just trail off and not finish what they were saying and never go back to finish it. I enjoyed some of the sound effects as it helped to tell where people were but also was a bit off-putting

Teddy Hamilton... Need I say anymore???

I love Nathan so much, he just so 🥰 for Bree

Bree is lowkey annoying with her feelings for Nathan like I get that it can be scary and you don't want to mess it up when you're the best of friends but why keep pushing Nathan away even under the fake dating thing??

Had zero clue what I was getting into when I started listening to this, all I saw that it was narrated by Teddy Hamilton, who I love as a narrator, and that it was under two hours long.

I loved this, I'm so glad that I picked it up. Honestly it's everything I want in a rom-com novella. It was so funny, and didn't feel at all too fast paced or rushed at all

- second chance / it's always been you
- miscommunication
- meddling friends who force them to work together

I really enjoyed this, it was such a good listen

One criticism I do have is sometimes, more with the female narrator, I didn't know what was a thought and what was being said said by the FMC

I'm obsessed that the MMC named his dog 'Dog' 

This was just a really good enjoyable listen, very funny at times and I liked the found family kinda vibes that were going on

- second chance / enemies to lovers
- fake dating
- sports romance (he's ex football player and head coach of a high school team)
- colleges & neighbours 

I liked this was a good read, idk what to say about it, like ive been sat here and cant think about anything to say

Really enjoyed the first half of this book and then struggled with the second half of it

The first time the MCs meet was really funny and I liked that they made each other happy. 

However the bit I didn't like is that the MMC ends up cheating on his fiancee with the FMC, everyone felt bad about it but it didn't exactly stop them, it was very confusing and didn't sit right with me

Written in 3rd person, I'm not normally a huge fan but as this was really fast paced I quite enjoyed it

The second half was very fast paced and i felt like there were things that got skipped over and left me with questions

Also no HEA, like I know not everyone gets one but I much prefer books where there is one

Overall think this is a very cute concept and enjoyed the story but the execution just wasn't there for me

- disabled MCs
- 3rd person
- cheating
- closed door
- no HEA

Enjoyed this, probably not one of my fave Meghan Quinn books but it was a good listen

I loved that the MMC fell first and his chapters where the FMC was still in a different relationship but he wanted her so much anyway, i also enjoyed that the MCs became true friends before anything happened between them (feel like i read so many books where this just isnt a thing so it was nice to see the whole development)

I love that Sawyer built Fallon the little hut as a tribute to Sully and Joan's bench and that it was a place for them to go on little dates to and just hang out, like such a good book boyf like no one else has ever


The 3rd act break up(?) did annoy me cos it was miscommunication to the point where they both jumped to conclusions and didnt want to listen to what the other person had to say

- slow burn
- friends to lovers
- second chance (went on one terrible blind date in the past)
- small town
- he falls first

I struggled a bit with this book, at least compared to In The Weeds which I LOVED, idk there was just something about it which didn't get me hooked like with ITW

However I still really enjoyed this book, the dates were so funny and enjoyable and the ending was very cute

- fake dating / arrangement to practice dating cos they are bad at it
- small town
- friends to lovers 

Evie and Beck have my heart 💛

"seasons change and so do we"

LOVE this book, it's so warm and comforting and about finding your happy. 

I don't really have the words to say how much I adored this but think everyone should read this series cos I'm loving it so much 

- second chance
- small town

I'm one of those people who agree that this book is too long and does drag on at times, not to say I didn't enjoy it but some plot points I thought were very random and others seemed to go on for ages and I just wanted those sections to get over

It took me a little bit to get into this as there does seem to be 300 characters, I still don't actually fully know who's who after reading it but once I got into it I was really enjoying it, especially once the MCs got together I flew through the first part of their relationship. 

The main part I struggled with was around the 70%-95%(ish) (Christmas break until San Diego/UCLA match) where there were lots of arguments about Aaron, that whole section seemed to drag on. 

However the vindication I felt when stuff about Aaron came out was unmatched, like I knew he was a bad guy Im just glad it all came out

Spoiler for epilogue below 
also why do I keep reading accidental preg books recently, like I think before the past 2 weeks I read maybe 2?? Now it's popping up everywhere and I'm not vibing anymore
