the Paris vibes were everything.
the ballet vibes were there.
the rest was laugh out loud cringe (no fr i spent ten minutes laughing hysterically at something that happens at the end)

Oh how I love Sarah Adams. Her books fill you with the best kind of joy.
The Rule book is no exception. It was so fun and wacky.
Sarah Adams knows how to write characters that feel real, with real life stories and issues.
Things I liked about this book:
-the banter
-Seeing Bree and Nathan and the rest of the Sharks again
-the beginning set up
-the second chance trope
-the messaging of impowering women in the workplace
Things I didn't like:
-the romance. at first it was really good and cute but by the end I was struggling to see chemistry between Derek and Nora. And the way it was written was not for me.
-The plot was all over the place and didn't flow well in my opinion
-The ending was a little convenient
-The fact that there won't be anymore books in this series bc all the Sharks were married off out of nowhere
-The whole book just felt disjointed
Overall, I don't know if I would read it again. It reminds me of 'The Off-limits Rule' also by Sarah Adams which is my least favorite of her books.
The story and romance just didn't do it for me, but there are some great parts and quotes throughout the story!
Thank you NetGalley for the arc in exchange for an honest review!!Oh how I love Sarah Adams. Her books fill you with the best kind of joy.

3.5/5⭐
i was lucky enough to win an arc for this which was so so cool but unfortunately i didn't love it.
i wanted to love this book. i really did. emma lord is usually a consistent 4 star and above author for me, but this book was not it.
things i didn't like:
•there were way too many sub plots to follow
•the romance had no chemistry (literally why couldn't they just be friends)
•unnecessary drama
•the typical 3rd act drama was the most random thing ever.
things i liked:
•emma lord knows how to write banter
•the musical references that ive come to expect in her books (newsies!!)
•the graduation/discovering yourself portion was very relatable to me
•the friend group
this book felt like emma lord's braindump. a pile of unfiltered chaos that needed to be cut down a lot. several of the plot points could've been their own book and not jammed into this one.
am i disappointed? yes. but i will still give e.l. a few more chances as i love the worlds she creates.3.5/5⭐

4.5/5 ⭐
this was so cute and atmospheric.
what it has:
• intense ww1 vibes
• an adorable swoony romance
• banter
• typewriters!
• a hint of found family
• the magical 'gods' give hades and persephone vibes
• a boy whos head over heels for her
• anonymous penpals
the only thing i had an issue with was the dialogue as it was sometimes cringy, and the way things were explained was very simple BUT i adored this book and my heart is aching for the sequel 😭4.5/5 ⭐
