I have either read or listened to nearly every book Georgia Beers has written. I like the way her books flow, how the relationships she writes develop over time. Cherry on Top is similar to her writing style in other books, but the story development seemed different. That is not a bad thing at all. The two main characters get together a lot quicker than those do in some of her other books. There was also a couple of different storylines woven together with Cherry that I found to be a nice addition.
There were times in the story that I just did not like the Ellis character at all. I can understand her distaste for social media influencers, especially after what happened with her family, but her vitriol for all social media seemed misplaced, especially when she was writing for a tabloid that exposed people's activities. I don't feel like she ever truly felt remorse for that work that she was doing, yet she came down very hard on Cherry. It made me not like her at all. Cherry deserved better than to be treated the way she was.
This is one of the few times that Beers has written a character that I did not like, one that I don't feel like ever redeemed herself. The book is still fantastic and I loved Cherry.
I was provided with a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for a fair and unbiased review.
