D'Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding by Chencia C. Higgins

5.0

So you're telling me this is a book about a fake engagement reality show, AND they're queer. Say less. I am all the way in. If I'm going to watch TV, there's a 33% chance it's going to be a reality dating show. I LOVE THEM. I also love reading about them! 

D'Vaughn has struggled to come out. So she signs up for this show to come out, with a fake fiancé, on national television. I get that this could really help a lot of people struggling with talking about their sexuality with their families. However. I could not relate to this AT ALL. Like, girl. I guess the only thing I can say in her defense is that it wasn't aired live, and Kris did end up being someone very important to her. But dang. It could have gone so badly! 

Then Kris. She's doing it for the clout, and that felt very genuine. Her family was amazing. Don't get it twisted, D'Vaughn's family were also very supportive. But the Zavalas were so fun to read about. They were funny and loving and kind of perfect.

The chemistry between Kris and D'Vaughn was HOT. I just loved them. I could not put this book down. It only took me so long because I was trying to pack and leave for a family vacation. I regret nothing, though. Because this got me through the flight, laughing out loud the whole time.
