How true this is.
This book resonated with me and the journey of my own life but the story isn't mine, it belongs to Katherine and Ali as they meander through life and what they wanted, or at least what they think they wanted.
Sometimes I cringed with both characters as they strove to tick the boxes of either what was expected or going against the grain in the case of Ali and in the serendipitous way of real life, their paths kept crossing until they could no longer ignore each other.
An enjoyable read capturing the mess and complication of real life.
I received an ARC of this book for an honest review

Read the full review on Bookaholics Not-So-Anonymous.

This was a lighthearted read and one that was a nice change of pace in terms of other Harper Bliss books I've read in the past. Yes, there's a hint of drama and angst that sprouts now and then, but for all intents and purposes, this was a romantic comedy title that had female main characters who toed the line between not being able to stand being around one another and not being able to glance over and see where the other one may be whenever they were together in the same venue. Everyone around them seemed to pick up on the very potent energy these two were giving off each them destiny threw them together, but distractions were inevitable, whether they be in the form of other women or something else. There were moments that one seemed to be more mature than the other, almost as if the timing was always off with them. I found myself frustrated with their behavior at times, especially since you would think they had much more sense when they hit their thirties, but I guess when you realize the person you're falling for is the same one you couldn't stand for years, then denial is your friend. I'm giving The Road to You 4.5 stars. ♥

An actually believable enemies-to-lovers arc where the characters evolve to make sense together instead of being toxic. Also yay lesbians
