I highly recommend this book to all my fellow romance lovers. I hope that makes sense – I don’t think I would have had that realization reading print & I’m grateful for it. by about halfway, my brain quit asking me “who is they?” and recognized that “they” is London. While I’ve read books featuring characters whose pronouns are they/them, hearing London referred to as they/them repeatedly on the audiobook really made me aware of how my brain recognizes those words. They tie in together so well & it just made me squeal. No spoilers, but the first and last lines of this book is my new fave. The tension is there and the stakes are high for each of them. London, a nonbinary contestant on a reality show, is so great and Dahlia, a recent divorcee competing on the same show is awesome too. For starters, I highly recommend the audio, but I still want a print copy for my shelves. That’s the review – okay, I’ll give a bit more detail. Add in lovable characters with amazing narration & I’m a goner! Make it a food or cooking related show & I’m even more invested. I am a sucker for a book featuring a reality TV competition show. But as the finale draws near, Dahlia and London’s steamy relationship starts to feel the heat both in and outside the kitchen-and they must figure out if they have the right ingredients for a happily ever after.Book Review: Love & Other Disasters by Anita Kelly Hello, hilarious shenanigans on set, wedding crashing, and spontaneous dips into the Pacific. Goodbye, guilt about divorce, anxiety about uncertain futures, and stress from transphobia. They’re there to prove the trolls-including a fellow contestant and their dad-wrong, and falling in love was never part of the plan.Īs London and Dahlia get closer, reality starts to fall away. Still, she’s focused on winning, until she meets someone she might want a future with more than she needs the prize money.Īfter announcing their pronouns on national television, London Parker has enough on their mind without worrying about the klutzy competitor stationed in front of them. Too bad the first memorable move she makes is falling flat on her face, sending fish tacos flying-not quite the fresh start she was hoping for. Recently divorced and on the verge of bankruptcy, Dahlia Woodson is ready to reinvent herself on the popular reality competition show Chef’s Special.
