A review by readintowonderland
Y'allywood Billionaire by Terra Weiss
4.75
Maddox and Riley feel like a pairing where it makes sense that they ended up being forced together. They have a lot of loved ones in common and their characters have a lot of chemistry.
Who would've thought toilet paper gowns would be something to bond over? This concept really summarizes the type of humor this book has. They end up in wacky situations and have to do their best to figure it out in some rather wild ways.
This book also has a deep-running family and found family storyline. These relationships help push the story forward and give the characters purpose beyond their roles in Urban Dawn.
I really like the pacing of this book. The various plot points are perfectly placed. It keeps things exciting but is still easy to follow. The cast of characters is so genuinely funny and engaging. For a group of rich people, they are quite down-to-earth and not snobby. I'd be happy to read other books that follow other members of this group.
This book provides a nice representation of the positive benefits of therapy. Riley genuinely benefits from it and it isn't blown out of the water that she sought help for her mental health.
My one complaint about this book is the inclusion of the pandemic. It felt a bit too, currently accurate to keep it a nice reading experience for that portion of the book.
The plot twist at the end (which I will not say too much about) is very perfect for Riley's character. It spreads an important social message and is an important reminder that our actions and decisions do impact others.
This book does have a few spicy scenes so keep that in mind. They can be skipped but are embedded in chapters.
As a note, I did get the chance to read this book as an ARC. This review is entirely voluntary. I really enjoyed this reading experience. With a fun cast of characters, positive mental health representation, excellent pacing, and lots of funny moments, I am happy to recommend this book.
