Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter

4.0

This was a good enjoyable read.
What i liked : 
- WES lol he’s so funny and sweet and attentive… 
- the fact that the characters sounded like their age (17-18) but without being overly childish.
- Liz’s grief with of her mother 🥺🥺.
- the fact the Liz was into romance and love and wasn’t ashamed of it, i related to her so much in this aspect because i love LOVE.
- the book felt like a 2000s romcom and i missed those, they aren’t making films like this anymore
- the music part of the book, i loved it.
What i didn’t like : 
- Liz was an awful friend and she literally hate girls/women without any valable reason. I think she needed therapy after her mother died but no one noticed what she’s been going through.
- i wanted more romance between Liz and Wes i think the few pages we got weren’t enough for my forever romantic self.
