The book itself is cute. But I don’t think it’s giving me the butterflies I wanted!!!
“Because you go somewhere else when you read. I want to go there with you.” Adorable, heart warming…. Involves books…. I cried it’s all I will say…
4.25⭐️
2.5 stars — i enjoyed the beginning of this book and i'm a huge fan of the fake-dating trope but overall i just couldn't connect with this book as a whole. something felt off the entire way through and i couldn't pinpoint it. never really stood out to me. as much as i wanted to love brett and becca, their relationship felt extremely rushed and lacked certain detail. nonetheless, this was a cute and easy read.
i literally finished reading this book in less that six hours. the way i can’t stop reading this book during my class time. this book is original from wattpad and i just knew about that when i was about to start reading this book. i just knew that this book has fake dating trope and that’s it. very nice and sweet book ever. love the “classic” fake dating we got in this book. i liked both main characters in here, Becca and Brett. love their chemistry so much. becca was a cool girl i really loved her vibes. and brett all i remember about him he is a popular guy who really wants to be in relationship. the only thing that i didn’t liked in this book is how they rushed everything and we didn’t get to feel it. the relationship between them is the only thing that i keep in reading and istg i’m swooning. i just loved it so much and enjoyed it. the kiss scene. whenever them spending time together i literally smiles nonstop. and the ending literally left me a huge grin on my face. read this book if you love some cute wholesome story and fake dating in it!!!!
Its was a nice distracting read and i enjoyed the book. However this was the most pointless book i have ever read. The conflict felt like a bump in the road and that it was just brushed under the rug and they just moved on. Also could not tell you what the morale/point of this story was.
kit connor as brett fancast you will always be famous to ME!
becca and brett's daddy issues. i liked it. i feel like there was no big problems in this novel. it's just like "okay i forgive you bye" kind of thing.
There were so many cute quotes in this book! I recommend for a quick romance read because it only took me a little over 2 hours. I also love that the main character was a reader! 3⭐️
I had to DNF this one. I liked the premise, but it was too juvenile for me. I like a good cheesy romance, but this was giving “I’m not like other girls” and insta love, and I was not vibing.
I’ve never DNF’d a book before, even though some were heinous, so this is a big deal for me.
Definitely more of a YA novel, but sweet and a happy, easy read.
It’s a cute little YA romance that’s a fast read and easily get you out of a slump what can you say?
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! I finished it in a day… Its a really fun and quick read. However, unbeknownst to me, my kindle crashed half way through the book… literally was 52% of the way done… so aside from being stuck reading it on my phone, it was so good. adorable book about 2 people who aren’t looking for a relationship but fake date each other to get the people in their lives off their back…
wholesome YA read
I loved every second of this book!! It was soooo cute and I thought it had a good story
I thought that this book was good when I read it
3.7/5. this book was a quick and easy read. i didn’t feel super connected to the characters but their break up scene hit a little to close to home. it felt like my heart was coming up my throat. side note: is to much to ask for the ending to happen to me?
4.5/5 BRETT AND BECCA HAVE MY HEART MY LITTLE MEOW MEOWS such a fun book I love how their each others safe place it makes me cry
cute and cheesy
Super cutesy highschoolfake-dating romancing. Swoon-worthy male lead who plays football, and adorable book-obsessed MC.
** spoiler alert ** AHH I really enjoyed this book! solid 4⭐ super short and sweet :)) becca was amazing i absolutely adore her ! brett has such golden retriever vibes it's honestly so cute 🥰 (i need a Brett in my life) this book is super short and sweet. a perfect palate cleanser. i loved it also because it was based in a school setting which is up my alley ( give me some academic rivals )
It was a bit weird and unrealistic how they just suddenly ended up "dating" but other than that it was a good book
cute little read!
3.5/5 ☆
Highlights
“Because you go somewhere else when you read. I want to go there with you.”
That’s cute
It was like, if love couldn’t exist in reality, at least it was alive in fiction.
…haha yeah
Love is temporary.
So real
“Read to me.”
“Why?”
“Because you go somewhere else when you read. I want to go there with you.”
He grinned. Shook his head. "What?" I asked. "Nothing. Nothing at all," he said, jerking his chin toward the book on my legs.
Read to me." "Why?" "Because you go somewhere else when you read. I want to go there with you."
We sat there and I read aloud, my back to Brett's chest. He pulled me a little closer, held me a little tighter. And this time, we escaped together
I read this quote somewhere online a little while ago and just realized now it was from this book. Soo cute!!
I had gotten into the habit of ending every day with the same question: Was it worth remembering or forgetting?
I feel this
I wondered if a day would come when he'd abandon that child too. I really hoped it didn't. I hoped he'd choose to stick around so that little baby would never go through what I did. I hoped they’d never have to hide in a bush and watch their father love his new family the way he couldn’t love his old one
"Read to Me"
"Why?"
"Because you go somewhere else when you read. I want to go there with you."
"Because you go somewhere else when you're reading. I want to go there with you."
-Brett
"Words aren't like that. They build an entire world around you. It's not something you look at, it's something you're inside. That makes it a lot scarier."
-Becca
"I can't believe I have a crush on a girl with such horrible ice cream taste."
-Brett
"I knew a lot about love I knew there were two kinds: 1) real love and 2) fictional love."
-Becca
“I’ll have you know I’ve read all the Harry Potters.”
She did not look impressed. At all.
“That doesn’t count. Everyone’s read Harry Potter. It’s practically a childhood rite of passage.”
She had a point.
This quote has my soul
It was like, if love couldn’t exist in reality, at least it was alive in fiction. Between the pages it was safe. The heartbreak was contained. There was no aftermath, no shock waves.
“it’s like i said, people always leave. parents, friends—it doesn’t matter. it’s all temporary and i’m not sure i can handle another person walking out on me.” “then let me show you that i can be the one who stays.”
as someone w abandonment issues this is all i’ve ever wanted to hear 🥲
“Read to me”
This quote is cute as he has picked up on her own ways of coping methods and wants to find a way to help him
"I mean, these are books, Becca. They're not real life. You can't take what you read in here and expect it to magically happen to you. You can't expect it to feel like that." She paused, grabbing a book out of the bag and placing it on her stomach. "Real guys aren't like this. I don't think anyone is like this. People don't stand in front of your bedroom window with a boom box-"
"That depends," I said. "What kind of book is it? A romance? Mystery? Fairy tale?" "Fairy tale," Brett said very seriously. "I'm guessing you want to be the prince?" "Only if you're the princess."
