Julieta and the Romeos | Maria E. Andreu
2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
Youve Got Mail meets a YA Beach Read with a bookish mystery at its heart in the newest rom-com from Maria E. Andreu. The ideal next read for fans of Emily Henry, Kasie West, and Jennifer E. Smith. Julieta isnt looking for her Romeobut she is writing about love. When her summer writing teacher encourages the class to publish their work online, the last thing shes expecting is to get a notification that her rom-com has a mysterious new contributor, Happily Ever Drafter. Julieta knows that happily ever afters arent real. (Case in point: her parents imploding marriage.) But then again, could this be her very own meet-cute? As things start to heat up in her fiction, Julieta cant help but notice three boys in her real life: her best friends brother (aka her nemesis), the boy next door (well, to her abuela), and her oldest friend (who is suddenly looking . . . hot?). Could one of them be her mysterious collaborator? But even if Julieta finds her Romeo, shell have to remember that life is full of plot twists. . . . From the author of Love in English comes a fresh take on love and romance, and a reminder to always be the author of your own life story.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thoroughly enjoyed this modern nod to "Romeo & Juliet" in namesake, although it is *definitely* not a retelling.

It's contemporary YA fiction that stands on its own with well-rounded characters, a storyline that references the pandemic, familiar romantic tropes, and a realistic protagonist who isn't a cautionary tale, but rather the author of her destiny.

Will definitely seek out other works by Andreu.

Librariana (1 of 1) Worthwhile to mention/add that there is a bit of dialogue in Spanish with Julieta's family members being Argentinian 🇦🇷😊 4mo
