Sept 2021 Book Club - One To Watch

I finished this one yesterday and totally had fun reading it!

This was an easy read and I totally wanted to watch the show they were making. Lol! I'm not sure I've ever watched the Bachelor or Bachelorette but I did watch one reality dating show many years ago (Joe Millionaire or something?) and got completely sucked into it and the characters. I did think it was interesting to see the behind the scenes stuff about how the producers basically influence how the show could go and I'm sure that happens a lot, especially with the "twists" they throw in to get ratings. I was NOT happy with Luc and Lauren hooking up hours after Luc slept with Bea. I actually couldn't believe how she was able to handle dating so many men at the same time and there were a few times when Asher was acting "funny" after she'd come back from a date with someone else and she couldn't figure out why he could possibly be upset. Lol. duh! But I get it was the only way to write this and I just had fun with the cheap drama of it all. I knew pretty early on that she was going to end up with Asher and I was cool with that. I was REALLY happy she didn't end up with Ray after he strung her along for so long. He totally judged her as a non-datable person based on her weight for a decade and then expected her to still be eagerly awaiting for him to come around to actually realizing she was a good person. Nope! I also chuckled at the thread with Collin and their banter related to the show too. I'm not sure I would have read this on my own, so I'm glad it was picked for our book club here. It was entertaining!

I agree, not sure I'd have grabbed it on my own but glad I did! It was fun and I would have loved to have watched it too. in fact, I'd love if they made the whole book into a movie. LOL.
