When I Met You by Avery Easton
3.5
Honestly, after such a long stress of emotionally taxing books, this was such a fun little break. One thing about me is that I love musical theater, and I regret it every day of my life that I never got involved in it when I was younger, so reading about these two characters (one with musical theater in her bones and the other a former superstar turned shut in turned instant Broadway heartthrob), I was hooked. As we know, I’m not a romance girl, but I LOVED reading about the behind the scenes business, getting an understanding of putting in a show start to finish, and finally making it to opening night. I was invested in them making this show happen because so many people were depending on it for so many different reason.
I have to say my favorite character was Mateo. I appreciated that he was more than meets the eye and continuously challenged people’s perception of him. Honestly, I would have probably been a big fan of his as a little kid and I know I would have been a bigger fan once he hit the stage. Jazzy wasn’t my cup of tea, but it was nice to see her soften herself over time and actually let something in aside from work.
All in all, a quick and cozy little read!
