Insta-love. Back and forth between “I want this” and “I don’t want this”

If you’re someone who watches Gilmore Girls every fall for the vibes, I think you’ll really like this romance. It takes place in an idyllic New England town in the fall, so basically a Stars Hollow replica. The love interest is between a bubbly coffee shop owner and a broody farmer. Definitely not the worst book I’ve read, but far from being memorable.

The writing just isn't doing anything for me. So much exposition. It's baked into the story so it's not jus info-dump, but it's uninteresting at the point of the story we're at. Don't particularly like grumpy/sunshine (could't be persuaded but it feels forced here). 
I'm not interested in wasting time with mediocre romances.
