Reel Love

De: Addie Woolridge

Narrado por: Keylor Leigh

Two teens must keep their working--and romantic-- relationship a secret from their grandmas, who are longtime social media rivals, in this hilariously sweet rom com from the author of The Homecoming War.

Jamie Webb is happy to be the camera-shy brains behind her grandmother BamBam’s social media stardom—especially if it makes college admissions officers notice her. But with BamBam’s antics, creating content isn’t easy. Going to an influencers convention in Las Vegas is just what Jamie needs to relax and get inspired.

Well, it is before BamBam learns that Buzzy Timmons, her archnemesis and fellow granfluencer, is also attending—along with her influencer grandson, Ethan. No matter how cute Ethan is, Jamie refuses to hang out with the enemy . . . until she learns about a cash prize for best tourism video. A prize Ethan can help her win.

Exploring Vegas with Ethan turns out to be more fun and flirty than Jamie expects. But without BamBam’s blessing, can they ever have anything real?

A Delightful & Quirky Read

I loved this book from start to finish. The premise was so modern and unique that it made for some hilarious relatable interactions. I especially liked how the grandmother’s both loved their grandchildren and supported their passions which in a way created an inherent bond between the two of them. With this being YA I thought Addie did a great job of creating romantic tension while modeling positive relationship etiquette. The spice was in the small details of the senses; touch, sounds and smells! Overall a great read and looking forward to the next read from Addie!
