I kind of expected more drama or more problems with D'vaughns or Kris' family but it was just such a wholesome book and I enjoyed having mostly happy interactions.

I loved this book! D'Vaughn & Kris Plan a Wedding is sweet, funny, emotional and offers readers the classical twist of love-based reality shows--only we get to watch our couple actually fall in love! I have not read a lot of Sapphic romance books because of the male-gaze and patriarchal stereotypes that I've grown up seeing. Now, I cannot wait to find more books like this one.
Even with the lite tone and vie of the this book, there are some serious topics that our characters bring to the table; such as D'Vaughn using the show to come-out to her family and Kris, who is attractive, has a huge social media following and very comfortable in her skin wanting to find real love while using the show as her starting point. Of the pair, I connected with D'Vaughn the most. Like her I am generally shy and while I announced my Bi-sexuality in the presence of my family, it was not planned or a conscious choice. Instead in response to something completely unrelated in the mist of a heated discussion about someone else. So her choice to use the show to help her take such a huge step, I could understand.
The little Jitter Cam snibbits were my fave parts between the chapters. In my opinion as a mood reader, it's rare to find a book you want to keep on your permanent re-read list.

Honestly one of, if not the worst romance books I’ve ever read. The characterization of the main characters were all over the place and their motivations were not realistic in the slightest. I originally DNFed this at the 20% mark and came back a year later and almost DNFed it again at the 70% mark. I ended up skimming the last 30%, but I should have left it lie the first time I tried and failed to read it :(
