All opinions in this review are my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This book was adorable. Two-person love triangles are my favorite trope (think You&#8217;ve Got Mail)- angst with a HEA? Yes please! &#8211; and this one was about&nbsp;<strong>books<\/strong>! So what is not to love? I just&nbsp;<em>sped<\/em>&nbsp;through this book in one sitting. We&#8217;re talking &#8220;I forgot to eat dinner and 4 hours went by&#8221; sped through this. This comes out the day after Valentine&#8217;s day (February 15th) and it is a great addition to any romance books you want to read this month. Key facts about this book: it has a small independent publishing house, an editor who wants to be a writer, and a mysterious editor of her manuscript. It has some hilarious lines, and it pulls off the trope so well &#8211; without any of the creepy things that this can normally have. I was highlighting so many lines as I read because I was laughing at them, things like: &#8220;Sam, who took a week&#8217;s vacation last year to go to Branson, Missouri.&nbsp;<em>Branson, Missouri.<\/em>&#8221; and &#8220;&#8216;The public&#8217;s attention is not on the great harmonica players of the nineteenth century.&#8217; &#8216;Then we&nbsp;<em>draw<\/em>&nbsp;their attention to it. That is our duty. We create a culture. We enrich society.'&#8221; Maybe these kinds of lines aren&#8217;t funny to other people but they definitely were making me giggle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Was the main character kinda dumb at times? Sure. Would a lot of this have been solved if people just&nbsp;talked to each other? Absolutely. But it was a fun, sweet read that made me feel good when I needed exactly that. Flawed characters in a realistic sense, with a HEA\/HFN, about books. What more could I have wanted?! 4.75\/5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas Nelson Fiction for an ARC of this book.
