Not in My Book by Katie Holt

  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

best book i’ve read this year, and dare i say: it’s in the running for my favorite book ever.

so many things to love about not in my book:
  • rosie is a romance reader AND writer but not in an annoying way??? you know what i’m talking about. she reads so naturally and i’d definitely be her friend irl 
  • aiden had moments where he sucked but it was for good reason (hello #daddyissues) so it didn’t make him irredeemable 
  • rosie’s workshop group were supportive without being overbearing and i loved their dynamic
  • aiden was so down bad for rosie and i loved it too much
  • AIDEN WROTE THE HAPPY ENDING AHHH
things not to love about not in my book:
  • literally nothing 
  • i will take no criticisms of this book, no matter how valid they are

anyways this book is likely to become my entire personality!!!

“I love you. In light and dark, in romance and litfic. In this lifetime and the next.” 🩷
