#PlaneBae meets Gilmore Girls in this hilarious and heartfelt contemporary about the addictiveness of fame and the harsh realities of going viral in a digital world.
When Macy Evens meets a boy named Eric, she's smitten but not head-over-heels. He's funny but also kind of a jerk. They hit it off, though she never gets his number, so Macy's sure she'll never see him again. Until she finds out a stranger witnessed their supposed "meet cute" and live tweeted it to a captive online audience.
What started as an innocent thread gained retweets, until now, Macy and Eric are a viral sensation. Her YouTube channel has never been more popular, but the masses aren't clicking her subscribe button for reviews of old VHS tapes. They only care about her not-actually-a-relationship with Eric. While he's more than happy to milk his newfound fame, Macy is worried about how this unwanted attention could impact her real relationships-especially with the shy boy next-door, Paxton, who she's actually developing feelings for.
With Macy's faux-romance going viral, the whole world is watching to see what she does next. And so is she.
3.5 stars
Not your #lovestory is indeed a sweet love story about meet cute and how social media can influence the lives of the ones implicated in it.
There are much more deep feelings and discussions in here, much more than one is expecting and while the cover and blurb is setting up for an easy read, this is not the case.
The characters are well described and i enjoyed it overall but maybe i wanted a bit more from the actual romance and how that develops into something more steady and beautiful for the future.
