seriously romantic: twice in a blue moon by christina lauren

christina lauren know how to deliver humor, but they also know how to deliver the bittersweet. twice in a blue moon is more on the bittersweet side of the spectrum, and as long as you know this going into it, and read it when you want something bittersweet, you aren't going to have any problems here.

now, the biggest conflicts in this story could have been resolved if the characters actually communicated with each other. similar to roomies, which i loved, but oh man, did i wish those characters had just talked to each other.

this is a second chance at love story, with over a decade of time passing between the first time these characters meet to the second time. at times, it feels like the characters didn't do enough growing in the time between, and the first half of the story is certainly sweeter than the back half given all the regrets and recriminations. but there is a happy ever after, which you know is a requirement of the genre.

**twice in a blue moon will publish on october 22, 2019. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of netgalley/gallery books in exchange for my honest review.
