The Cheat Sheet by Sarah Adams
lighthearted
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? No
1.5
Notes:
- The writing... yikes. It's like it came straight out of wattpad. So much unnecessary exposition that is told through the character dialogue that sounds like it belongs to a 14 year old.
- The plot itself isn't really that great either tbh:
- Only saving grace was Nathan's panic attack scene which is a trope that I love personally, but honestly it wasn't that long or complex of a moment so it wasn't as fulfilling to me as I was hoping.

Spoiler
the cheat sheet isn't really important other than to function as a scene generator for Nathan and Bree, Bree has no friends other than the football guys and her sister, and the wedding was just stupid — either elope properly or just wait and plan a nice wedding why rush into it??- Only saving grace was Nathan's panic attack scene which is a trope that I love personally, but honestly it wasn't that long or complex of a moment so it wasn't as fulfilling to me as I was hoping.
