Remy vs. Rome by Bonnie Callahan
5.0
I loved everything about this book! From the way the author was able to describe the beautiful Italian setting, to almost being able to taste the pasta and wine being described on the pages. Bonnie Callahan did an amazing job of writing this story, and was really able to take the reader on an adventure through Rome!
Remy was such a great protagonist. I really felt like I could connect with her, and honestly I just want to be her best friend. Lorenzo was definitely the kind of love interest I like seeing in RomComs; forbidden but the chemistry and tension is clearly there. It was great to see how their relationship and dynamic shifted during the book, as different events occurred throughout the story.
As for the plot, this was just the book I needed to finish up my summer reading! Not only was there adorable and spicy romance and humour, but there was also adventure and a little bit of mystery. Think Mindy Kaling humour mixed with an Italian version of National Treasure or the Da Vinci Code. Can’t go wrong with that combo! Once I started reading, I couldn’t put the book down!
Overall, I absolutely loved this book and could not recommend it enough! Anyone who loves a good romcom and wants to feel like they are a part of an Italian adventure, give this book a go and you will not be disappointed! Now excuse me while I go try to convince my Italian boyfriend to make me carbonara for dinner - I blame Remy!
Thank you to the author @bonniecallahan for my #gifted e-ARC and final copy in return for an honest review.
