This was such a great book đ Iâve struggled recently with reading things that Iâve not really enjoyed but this was just what I needed 5âïž
Lynn Painter's Mr. Wrong Number is a lighthearted, flirtatious romantic comedy that is full of unexpected romance and humor. The narrative centers on Olivia, who unintentionally begins texting a stranger after entering the incorrect number, only to discover that the recipient may not be as stranger as she initially thought. Their clever text messages quickly develop into tension and chemistry in real life, making for an incredibly funny and heartwarming story.
This book is ideal for readers who appreciate lighthearted romance that doesn't take itself too seriously because of its blend of witty humor, poignant moments, and a charming enemies-to-lovers vibe.
This book reads like most lighthearted romance novels â predictable, with a familiar setup. Itâs the classic âhe falls for his best friendâs sisterâ trope, complete with the usual childhood-blindness-turned-sudden-attraction twist. While the humor keeps things breezy and entertaining at times, the plot doesnât offer anything particularly fresh or surprising. If you enjoy easy, clichĂ©-filled romantic comedies, you might still have a good time â just donât expect anything new.
What a great rom-com! I loved the banter and chemistry in the book! I could totally see it being turned into a movie. Easy read that was hard to put down!
