Everyone I Kissed Since You Got Famous by Mae Marvel
Did not finish book. Stopped at 38%.
I hate to do it, but I had to DNF. Still, very grateful to Netgalley for a chance at an early read of this one. I don’t know exactly how to explain, but the story is just doing nothing at all for me. Technically it’s a second chance romance, where two friends meet up in their hometown and realize they’ve had feelings all along, etc. But from the very start, they’re a combination of already besties again and flirting and touching a lot, and like? Where’s the story? Where’s the tension? One of the characters is a famous tiktoker and the other is an *EGOT* at the age of 31. There’s some potential for story - the actress’s backstory is alluded to, but whatever is really happening there hasn’t been fleshed out by this point. So instead these characters who don’t really know each other anymore are… driving around. I’m sure some people will really enjoy this, but I couldn’t make myself keep going.
