Review: You Deserve Each Other

Review: You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle

Naomi Westfield has the perfect fiancé: Nicholas Rose holds doors open for her, remembers her restaurant orders, and comes from the kind of upstanding society family any bride would love to be a part of. They never fight. They're preparing for their lavish wedding that's three months away. And she is miserably and utterly sick of him.

Naomi wants out, but there's a catch: whoever ends the engagement will have to foot the nonrefundable wedding bill. When Naomi discovers that Nicholas, too, has been feigning contentment, the two of them go head-to-head in a battle of pranks, sabotage, and all-out emotional warfare.

But with the countdown looming to the wedding that may or may not come to pass, Naomi finds her resolve slipping. Because now that they have nothing to lose, they're finally being themselves--and having fun with the last person they expect: each other.

When your nemesis also happens to be your fiancé, happily ever after becomes a lot more complicated in this wickedly funny, lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy debut.
-summary and cover via Goodreads

Plot: When I first added this book to my TBR list, I thought it sounded fun, and that I would like it. I did not expect how much I would love it! The plot was so fun, and it took several turns I wasn't expecting. I laughed so much while reading this book, and it reminded me of Sophie Kinsella's style of humor! (Which is one of the highest compliments I can give a book.) There were also plenty of heartfelt and swoony moments, too!

Characters: Naomi was a great main character! And while I didn't like Nicholas much at the beginning, (I don't think this is a spoiler to write this, because the summary basically says this.) I grew to quite like him by the end. His parents were awful, but the interactions they had with them were hilarious!

The Cover: It's cute! It's not how I pictured the characters while reading, but that might just be me.

Overall: I really, really loved this book and I will eagerly anticipate whatever this author writes next!

I received an e-ARC of this book from the publisher.
