A review by bookedbymadeline
Meet Cute Diary by Emery Lee

Did not finish book. Stopped at 31%.
Noah could be insufferable at times. I was trying to remind myself that he’s 16 but he was so entitled, whiny, and a terrible friend to Becca! I didn’t like the audio version-the narrator’s voice was monotone to the point that they sounded bored the whole time.

The Diary/blog didn’t make much sense to me. I totally understand why Noah was writing it to provide joy and hope for other trans people. But each diary entry was exactly the same! The use of over the top, cheesy pick up lines being used made it feel like it should’ve been more obvious that they’re written by the same person and are fake; so how did people even believe the stories in the first place?! The troll was completely right (obviously we know that). 

I was so excited for this one and wanted to love it. But Noah and the narrator are just annoying and I can’t force myself to finish otherwise I’d just hate review it.

I’m really glad the story has amazing trans, genderqueer, non-binary, aspec, neopronoun rep but the story and characters are flat so I had to DNF.
