Reviews with content warning for Vomit - The Unhoneymooners

This book is an easy read, pretty entertaining in the first half, but loses momentum quickly and has a pretty problematic plot as far as the romance goes. It’s enemies to lovers/misunderstandings, but it’s over-simplified and doesn’t have realistic “obstacles” for the characters.

Spoiler

way too much victim blaming and not believing the main character when her brother in law comes onto her. It’s reconciled at the end, but totally just glosses over it like it was a small misunderstanding. all the trust flew out the window and it’s like “nbd, he’s still so cute” like what. Also, I don’t like how many people took low blows at the main character’s personality—she also gets fired from a much-needed job because of this dude and I didn’t feel like that way necessary.

. Would not rec this book—read a summary, and save your time.

I truly feel no strong feelings towards this book I enjoyed reading it.

SPOILERS AHEAD

I think that Olive really needed the character development.

Also was Ethan completely dumb he thought that Dane leaving Ami on things like valentine’s day and their anniversary ment that Dane though that they had nothing planned??? And that they weren’t serious until HE PROPOSED!! Was he even listening to the bull shit he was spewing??

And when she saw her future boss why didn’t she pretend to be Ami and be like “yeh sorry definitely not Olive I’m Ami her twin sister” I feel like that would of work out 1000 times better?? Or am I just being dumb and that wouldn’t of worked??

I think Ethan proposing was cute. I think that books don’t always have to end with them getting engaged or married or having a baby but I think it fit for this one. You know with them being back where it started it’s cute.

• great humor
•the main character was a bit annoying at times,as well as her sister but overall nice.
• the brother in law <was an a-hole,unlikeable and hate worthy.i despised hom in the entire book> got on my nerves
•made me miss summer with the vacation vibes
•loved the ending < the sister's revenge scene on the brother in law was iconic and she was such a badass>

This book had a lot of heart and I really wanted to like it!!! I enjoyed the relationship between Ami and Olive and love some good multimedia (i.e. the text conversations). Ethan and Dane were interesting characters and I liked the rest of the family! But I just never really got into it. I'm not sure if the writing style wasn't for me or if I'm just not a fan of the enemies to lover trope, but it wasn't my favourite rom-com. Also, the way that Olive's weight and her insecurities were dealt with felt a bit off at times. This book has potential, I just don't know if I ever really connected to it.

There are some books I read to get me back in the motion of reading on my kobo. The Unhoneymooners was one of those. Great plane and airport read. Also, a great I-am-doing-a-five-day-quarantine-in-a-hotel-and-cannot-leave-the-room-so-a-book-about-enemies-to-lovers-on-a-fake-honeymoon-shall-suffice read. :) Overall, happy.
