Story of My Life by Lucy Score is the first book of her new Story Lake series. It’s a super cute story of a struggling author moving from the big city to live out her own personal romcom in a small town. Look, guys, when Lucy Score says “this series is my love letter to every reader who said they wanted to move to a fictional town”—she absolutely delivers with this one! 

I can’t count how many times I cracked up while reading this. The intertwining of her writing and living her love story is hilarious and sweet and adorable and swoony. All the characters are perfect. Hazel, Zoey, Campbell, his parents, his brothers,  Laura, the wonder boy mayor, and even the raccoon. And Campbell? Guys. HE READ HER BOOK. The grumpy construction guy READ her romance book. I’m smitten. 

I enjoyed the chapter titles. It really set the stage before starting each one. And I never wanted this book to end. I want to move to Story Lake and be besties with Hazel and Zoey and Laura. I mean, who doesn’t want to run away from their dumpster fire of a life and start over in a perfect small town? Loved this one so much.
