How to Lose an Ex in Ten Days

Oh, how I wanted this to be a good book. The premise seemed interesting and I looked forward to reading a funny and heart-warming adventure. But sadly, How to Lose an Ex in Ten Days missed the mark.

The protagonist, Belle, was abandoned at the alter by Ed, and is still plagued by her experience. She’s stuck in a job she’s bored with, and spends more of her working hours daydreaming over her co-worker, Nate. But then Ed returns with unresolved business and a unique twist. 

I was very close to giving up on this story early on. It just did not hold my interest. And sadly, very little of the plot remains in my mind. A lot of the time, I felt myself waiting for something to happen, and the twist in the plot wasn’t a welcomed surprise. The romance is flat, and I didn’t connect with the characters. However, the heavier subjects like grief and loss paired with the author’s easy and warm writing style is a win for this book. 

Overall, How to Lose an Ex in Ten Days isn’t the book for me. It seemed to be a fun and fluffy rom-com, but the twist didn’t work too well and the characters lacked likeable depth.
