The Neighbor Favor

I Had Such Hopes

Ive seen this posted all over social media and liked the sound of the plot. Sadly the book didn't live up to the premise and I skipped through the last 10% to get to the end.

Lily works in publishing for a horrible boss. She's walked over at work and at home by her parents and sisters who keep trying to help her get a better job / boyfriend etc.
She sends an email to her favourite author and is really surprised when he replies. Over the course of a year the sporadic emails supposedly show them falling for each other until he ghosts her. She ends up moving in with her sister and meets her neighbour, Nick. He realises who she is but doesn't tell her how they've already met.

I liked the idea but there were lots of cliches and the writing just didn't bring me along with the story, which is a shame because I really liked the plot.
