Not the Girl You Marry by Andie J. Christopher

3.0

For the most part, I enjoyed this book! And while I loved the premise, I feel as though the fact that it was marketed as a retelling or How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days somehow made it fall a bit felt for me. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed reading it, but comparing it to such a high quality rom-com gave it several high expectations that I was a tad bit disappointed by. I found myself struggling to pick it back up once I’d put it down. That being said, I LOVED the strong female lead. She was a total badass (and he was a sweetheart). It didn’t have so much to do with the characters as it did not being able to shake the fact that it was supposed to be a “retelling” that I couldn’t jump on board with.
