Marianna Moore is starting Twisted Love: This could go really bad but I have fomo

"The concept of a story within a story & having an em hen book that’s not solely focused on our two main characters, but rather having a 3rd pretty prevalent one seemed so new and fun and refreshing to me!

Seeing how Hayden & Alice met/started hanging out/their dynamic at first I was really into! On the other hand, Margaret’s story actually bored me to bed. & then the romance pacing went from 0-100 I was so confused!!! Where’s the yearning???? The emily Henry banter???? The witty MMC???? (The two stories just didn’t feel cohesive to me)

Anyway, I put my trust into her to deliver an interesting story with Margaret’s life, but I feel like we just got a family tree with no DRAMA or SCANDAL. I was waiting and waiting ��. and it was not as dramatic as I’d hoped

This isn’t my favorite emily Henry (could actually be my least favorite) & that’s okay. I still enjoyed my reading experience, there were some beautiful quotes & moments, the setting was really cute, but overall it just felt a bit meh most of the time"

"The premise was so extremely up my alley I for sure thought I was walking into a 5 ⭐️ read, but alas it wasn’t executed quite how I was expecting

2 fated lovers whose souls are intertwined in EVERY LIFETIME, but they’re also doomed to KILL EACH OTHER IN EVERY LIFETIME (literally sign me up right now)

There were some quotes that were beautifully written, it was a super unique read/concept & I really enjoyed seeing past chapters of all the previous lives they lived together (I do think these chapters were a bit too short to make me BELIEVE their love). I just wasn’t 100% sold on their story, and the ending felt so out of left field to me I didn’t love it.

I think I just wanted MORE! (If you have any recs similar in a romantic yet tragic way, please let me know 🫡)"
