I just finished Someone just like you by Meredith Schorr and here is my review.


Molly Blum and Jude Stark have been mortal enemies since they were 6 years old. Nothing has changed in the last couple decades even though their families are tight! They pranked each other growing up and now their siblings want them to work together to plan a family party for both the Blum's and the Stark's. It's Molly's worst nightmare.

The war is back on and now things get super heated between the pair but as their pranks build so does an unlikely friendship. The more time they spend together the more they realize that hating each other was easy but falling in love was easier but how to complete opposites find common ground...

I find the enemies to lovers trope is overdone and I wasn't sure this book was going to be any different than the rest. I was wrong. It was really clever in its execution. I loved the fact that they didn't hide from each other and just snark off. I loved that they went toe to toe. Jude was brilliant. I loved his presence and cockiness and how he challenged Molly to push herself outside of her comfort zone. We all need that in our lives. Loved the plot. The family dynamic was super cool and I couldn't get enough of it.

Molly is a classic goodie two shoes so seeing her throw down with Jude was epic. Jude seemed like the, no plans, ride the fun kinda guy but there were so many layers to him, it was entertaining to see how well developed he really was.

It was funny and romantic with all the drippings of mayhem! If you are a romance reader who loves enemies to lovers and need the kind of book you can't put down, grab this one!
