A review by booklovejess
The Break-Up Pact by Emma Lord

4.0

Coming from recently finishing Emily Henry’s Funny Story, this gave the same vibes. 2 character recently broken up with in very public manners, decide to fake date, one to get their ex back and the other to hep their flailing business.

First things first, this book is funny. Lots of zingy one liners from the couple and the best, best friend. I loved all the inside jokes between the main characters.

With that being said. This wasn’t as light and fluffy as I was expecting. There is a big underlying theme of grief of losing a loved one and finding yourself after a difficult break up. It’s a mature romance and although quick paced, it dealt with these topics realistically for the most part.

I would recommend for reader who love an emotional romance with small town vibes, lots of comedy with a touch of dramatics
