Thing We Never Got Over - disappointed

From the start, I really enjoyed the plot of this book, small town romance, twin sisters (good and bad) with elements of crime and suspense.

However, I found this a pretty trashy read, there’s no character development, the relationship is very superficial, the jokes are not funny and even though it dives straight into action, it quite slow paced. Reminded me a lot of It Ends With Us, but a lot less emotional and main characters are quite annoying (Naomi), misogynistic (Knox) and flat. Conversations have no substance.

Overall, it was an easy read, good enough for holiday and I did enjoy Stef as a character, good banter and sharp comments.

Probably would give a go to the second book a go but not at the top of my list and I fear it will just be more trashy. #BookReview #booksoflemon8 #booktok #smalltownromance #romancebooks

I’m so disappointed in Latto
After all that with her saying she was waiting on the right man and the right time, this is what she chooses?! And the man ain’t posted not nothing. This is so disappointing. I’ll never understand women like this. It’s putting herself in an ungreat situation. Absolutely no forethought. #Latto

10 thing you are overthinking & how to stop
I used to be the world’s biggest over thinker. I’d replay conversations in my head 24-7, I’d stress about what my friends were thinking, I’d stress about the foods I was eating or the workouts I was doing. It was never ending, and it felt like I wasn’t in control of my own thoughts… because I wasn’

This was supposed to be my birthday hair. I decided not to do my own hair for my birthday and get it done instead. The girl I went to had a nice pro folio of her work, so I decided to get my hair done by her. I should’ve known everything wasn’t going to turn out right. On Saturday when I got it
