The Reunion: A Novel

The sign of any good romance is how quickly and often I fancast the leads.

2.5 ⭐
This book had more potential. The posts at the end of the chapters felt choppy and forced. I found the characters lacking emotion and depth. Didn't hate the book just felt like there was more to be desired

Who doesn't love a reboot of their favorite childhood tv show?

This novel portrays just that. We follow Liv, an actress who is reunited with her co-star and unrequited love, Ransom, as they film their show's reboot. Ransom made it clear back then that they were nothing more than best friends. Will filming together again be the push they need to fall head over heels in love or will it prove to them their relationship was nothing more than an on-screen romance?

I love the plot and their shared history. It allows the reader a glimpse into their past and what could have been. It helps make the relationship more believable.

However, I still had a hard time connecting to their romance since we didn't see much of it on page. There was more of a focal point of filming the reboot, but since the readers don't know anything about the show in the first place, it seemed like too much filler information.

I did find the characters to be extremely well written and had a great time seeing all their personalities shine. If there was a bit more romance and less behind the scenes of a show I didn't know much about, this had the potential of being a favorite. Thus, I think this book is a solid 3 stars and would recommend it if you're new to the romance genre or just want a book with solid character dynamics.

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for an eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!
