More praise for Sarah Adams' rom-coms, including The Cheat Sheet - the heartwarming friends-to-lovers romance that became a sensation on TikTok - and When in Rome. Noah reluctantly lets her stay at his guest room. He knows he is in real trouble as soon as the woman in distress walks in her house. Because she’s famous, she’s beautiful and she’s gold hearted, lovely woman! His heart has already been broken by another city girl a few years ago. He cannot let that happen again. My Audrey Hepburn–loving heart is so happy! When in Rome isa delectable romance, sweet and satisfyingas a slice of warm apple pie.” —Chloe Liese, author of the Bergman Brothers series You and I rewritten took me by storm. I dearly love this beautiful, emotional, important, and deeply romantic story! Will and Graham are unlike any couple I’ve read before—and I just finished this book ten minutes ago and I'm still drying my eyes!!! The majority of their communication was so honest and open (which I loved) especially on Wills end like yess we love a man who can ACTUALLY communicate. At first it did feel like insta love but I still ate it up as it didn’t feel cringey to me like most.
It seems to me, Annie, that you are just waiting for someone to give you permission to be yourself out loud.” wHY this was surprisingly TOUCHING and unexpectedly mOrTiFYiNg because i felt ~E X P O S E D~ lol!! i have never felt so seen/connected to a book character before. 🙈 i feel like im Annie (h) or shes me. from her personality, her dynamic with her sisters, and her inexperienced love life, i could relate. the only thing missing is my very own bad boy, tattooed dating coach/training wheel Will Griffin (H)... whom if i dont get soon, then (instead of Practice Makes Perfect romcom) my love story would be a parody of Arranged Marriage judging from all the guys my moms been trying to set me up with lmao. 🤣💀Overall, I give this MARVELOUS BOOK a highly deserved five stars! I got a hint that the next book will be about James and Maddie, and I cannot wait to return to Rome soon! Sarah Adams' books are woven with pure sunshine and rainbows . . . It's everything you could want in a small town romance, along with a heaping dollop of her signature wit and sparkling charm' AMY LEA
I also very much enjoy this author’s writing style. She fleshes out her characters and makes them feel so real, like I truly know them and their history, and I love the way she depicts the heart-wrenching scenes between Dunni and Obinna in such a way that they are intensely moving and realistic, but never melodramatic. Many thanks to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group/Ballantine/Dell for sharing this amazing book's digital review copy with me in exchange for my honest thoughts Amelia is fun and quirky but doesn’t seem like a pop star to me, but that’s okay, she’s still an interesting character and the perfect love interest for Noah. I also enjoyed Noah’s sisters and the way they meddled in his life. but a side effect of being the one who listens and comforts is that people rarely offer to listen or comfort me.” to me, you’re amelia. maker of shitty pancakes and a smile that rivals the sun. all i want is you.”

Maybe that connection is missing because this book is almost aggressively wholesome. She’s in the shower — and he’s thinking about how nice her singing is. She’s in PJ bottoms and a camisole, and he yells at her to ask where her PJ top is (and then he wraps her up in a blanket to cover her up). One of the older women in town says it’s not right for him to be sharing his house with a woman who is tempting him. I think the characters said the sexiest thing to ever happen to them was a hug they shared. A hug. And guys, it’s important to note that she’s super inexperienced in bed. One of the characters even has a swear jar — where the money gets donated to charity, because of course it does. The characters themselves are never able to make up for the unnatural writing and the missing chemistry. He’s supposedly a grump but comes off more as an asshole, and she’s a naive pop princess who melts at the smallest sign of kindness and is desperate for crumbs of affection. Katy Adams writes both characters almost identically in their POV chapters. They’ve got good bones, and their romance has potential, but they’re overloaded with physical descriptions and with about two or three characteristics that Adams wanted to note that they have that Noah and Amelia never got to breathe on their own, and their relationship felt manufactured. Oh, and a super rushed ending doesn’t help. I binged this book in a few hours and could not put it down. SARAH ADAMS YOU BEAUTIFUL SOUL. This was an incredible read filled with heart, finding your path, laughter and all the LOVE.’⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I think this bled into another aspect I didn’t like. I want my female main characters to be feisty and be able to stand up for themselves. But she needs to do it for her, and it needs to be driven BY HER… Why is it that this man that she's with is the first person to see who she is and the first person that she can “actually” talk to, WHEN SHE IS SO CLOSE TO HER FAMILY, I wanted her to find herself, and not meet a man as the catalyst to find herself. I'm all for woman empowerment and not being rescued. And it felt like she could only be her true self when she found a guy! And wasn’t able to be herself without him. okay, listen. no one is more surprised than i am that i’m giving this four stars. i’m not a contemporary romance girly, but this one did it for me. is it perfect? not even close. but it is one of the sweetest rom coms i’ve ever read.
You and I rewritten took me by storm. I dearly love this beautiful, emotional, important, and deeply romantic story! Will and Graham are unlike any couple I’ve read before—and they were exactly what I needed!! In a world where toxic relationships are too often celebrated, Chip Pons gave us a couple who know how to communicate and play and grieve and celebrate together. It was truly a joy to read!!
