Audrey is over romance. While dealing with her parents’ contentious divorce, a breakup of her own, and shifting friendship dynamics, she has every reason to feel cynical. But then she meets Harry, her fellow coworker at the local cinema. He’s brash, impulsive, and a major flirt. And even though Audrey tries to resist, she finds herself falling for his charms. But in this funny, insightful, and ultimately empowering novel, love—and life—isn’t what it’s like in the movies.A clever, deconstructed rom-com that proves that in real life “girl meets boy” doesn't always mean “happily ever after” . . . or does it? At turns funny, feminist, and achingly real, this read is perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Patrick Ness, and Julie Buxbaum.

Rezension von such a great YA (romance) novel. the ending is sooooooo good!! such an important message. i really enjoyed reading this book (not really unexpected as the author is holly bourne and the two other books i read by her were also great). i loved how realistic the love story is portrayed as well as the very complicated family situation and it's effect on the main character audrey (really got under my skin in some scenes and made me so sad and angry)
Rezension von MagtahlineR*pe??
Rezension von VickyProbably not a 5 star read for everybody, but i LOVED it. I just could relate to Audrey a little too much…
Rezension von NicThis was probably the first book I impulsively bought after seeing it advertised and I didn’t regret in for one second. I couldn’t put it away. It was well written and I love the story. It seemed real. Like this was something that could actually happen that way. I bought it because I wanted at book without the typical Happy End but I need to admit by the end of it I kinda wanted it yet didn’t get it.
