I m all for this concept and blurb But damn that 2020 publishing date is killing me
Not sure what is upsetting Realizing this wasn t the full ARC or that the excerpt ended with such a hook and now I have to wait until J a n u a r y.Pls, NetGalley, can I has some
I need this book in my eyeballs like yesterday In Kate Clayborn s newsletter, she described this book as NYC set romance featuring an Instagram famous hand letterer with a secret habit for hiding codes in her work and the handsome mathematician who finds her out Ummmm, yeah.
I only read an excerpt but it was really good
Full of regret for requesting and reading the blurb It was fantastic and left me badly wanting to read the entire book.
I m in love 3 Officially After having read the first chapter of this book, thanks to receiving an excerpt from the publisher via Netgalley, this will be my most anticipated read for Jan 2020 My only complaint JANUARY 2020 That s too far away.The first chapter follows instagram star and calligraphy artist, Meg and her intriguing ability to predict the failure of her customers , Reid and Cecelia s, marriage Reid the dashing but broody groom has since turned up at Meg s New York shop following the ending of his relationship with Cecelia wanting to know Meg s secret for having predicted their failure before anyone else The ensuing drama is sure to followalong with mein JANUARY Why, oh why, does it have to be so far After having gotten my grubby mits on the first chapter I m eagerly awaiting This is definitely one to keep your eye on 3
This is a review of the first chapter only.Netgalley and Kensington books offered only the first chapter of this story and I was intrigued right away The thought of a secret message in a wedding program and a chance of a romance between the writer and the groom Yes please I enjoyed this chapter very much and cannot wait to read the rest of the story I asked for this excerpt because I love the idea of the plot and the cover is so beautiful Bring on the rest Thank you NetGalley, Kate Clayborn and Kensington Books for the opportunity to read this excerpt in exchange for an impartial review all opinions are my own LoveLettering NetGalley
EDIT I read the full book I loved it and for me, it is Kate Clayborn s best book, which is saying something because I have loved all of her books.I only read the excerpt and I am FULL ON OBSESSED That first chapter felt like total stationary lettering porn and holy shit I loved it I can t wait for of these two characters.
The premise of the book Reid finding Meg to understand why his marriage fell apart is cute and I was attracted to that as well as the cover However, the first chapter that I was provided was too cutesy for me All the May puns that were running through Meg s head were distracting and I couldn t really get a grasp on what her job was until Reid mentioned the NYT article I ll probably still read the rest of the book when it comes out, but the first chapter was something I had to push through.
Teaser reviewIts safe to say my interests are peaked What I read of the book was wonderful I loved the detail that went into the character introductions and it s so unfair that the entire teaser ended on a cliffhanger Cannot wait for the release, hoping for an advanced copy This teaser was provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review, all opinions are my own Luanna
