A Merry Little Meet Cute by Julie Murphy & Sierra Simone

Thank you to NetGalley and Avon Publishing for an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own.

This book made me have so many physical reactions (laughter, turning red, etc.), that I felt quite bold reading it in public. Besides the fact that I tend to feel bold reading any spicy books in public, this was one that I felt really bold reading in public based on premise alone. However, this book is a fantastic romcom and worth reading in public since I couldn’t put it down. I had read If The Shoe Fits by Julie Murphy before, but I have never ready anything by Sierra Simone – though that will need to change.

This book is body-positive in a non-toxic manner, hilarious, LGBTQIA+ rep ALL the way!, and sex-positive. It alternates POV which is always fun for me, and it is spicy for those of you who are looking for spice in your romance. My biggest issue (and this is such a me-specific issue), is the main characters fell for each other extremely quickly in my opinion, which pulled me out of the book a couple times. It is commented on in-universe which I appreciated but when books have the love interests fall in love too fast, I just have a hard time buying the relationship (again, totally a me problem). The title of the book is hilarious, and I would love to read another book written by the two of them together, and/or another book in this universe.
