Book Review: Never Ever Getting Back Together by Sophie Gonzales

"When their now famous ex-boyfriend asks them to participate in a teen reality show, two eighteen year old girls—one bent on revenge, the other open to rekindling romance—get tangled up in an unexpected twist when they fall for each other instead in Never Ever Getting Back Together by nationally and internationally-bestselling and Indie Next Pick author Sophie Gonzales.

It’s been two years since Maya's ex-boyfriend cheated on her, and she still can’t escape him: his sister married the crown prince of a minor European country and he captured hearts as her charming younger brother. If the world only knew the real Jordy, the manipulative liar who broke Maya’s heart.

Skye Kaplan was always cautious with her heart until Jordy said all the right things and earned her trust. Now his face is all over the media and Skye is still wondering why he stopped calling.

When Maya and Skye are invited to star on the reality dating show Second-Chance Romance, they’re whisked away to a beautiful mansion—along with four more of Jordy’s exes— to compete for his affections while the whole world watches. Skye wonders if she and Jordy can recapture the spark she knows they had, but Maya has other plans: exposing Jordy and getting revenge. As they navigate the competition, Skye and Maya discover that their real happily ever after is nothing they could have scripted."

My first book of 2023 was Never Ever Getting Back Together by Sophie Gonzales and it was BRILLIANT! A definite 5 star read and an amazing start to the year 😍

I was ecstatic when the lovely team at Team BKMRK said they had a spare copy, I’ve been so excited to read this, I can’t thank you enough!! This has become a new favourite for me! It has everything I love; sapphic romance, romcom greatness, reality tv shows and revenge!

I LOVED the characters (except for Jordy obviously, number 1 Jordy hater right here 😂) but Maya & Skye have my whole heart!

I loved the chemistry they had together as they go from not being to stand each other to partners in crime!

Also, I love love love Sophie’s writing style! It is so nice to read and flows so well! I got halfway through this book yesterday without even realising and then I couldn’t put it down this morning! I was completely absorbed in this story and I HAD to know what was going to happen! Everything was executed perfectly and I’m sad that it’s finished! I’m going to have to do a reread soon!

As a Taylor Swift girlie, I was so exited about this title for this book and the perfect companion song for this book is definitely Karma!

Just in case you couldn’t tell from my gushing, I absolutely LOVED this book 😂 Never Ever Getting Back Together is being published on 5th January 2023 and I am definitely going to be recommending this book for ages to come!
