Siempre hacen falta historias como esta: comedias románticas que juegan con los tropos ya conocidos pero que se atreven a dar un punto de crítica muy interesante. En este caso, la crítica va tanto a las expectativas que la gente tiene sobre otros como a los usos que tienen las redes sociales. Es interesante, porque desde el principio te lo venden como lo que es: una comedia romántica en al que puedes ver exactamente lo que te están dando.

A ver, vayamos por partes: adoro las comedias románticas. Son un estilo de historia feel-good que, para mí, nunca pasan de moda. Su ritmo es siempre el mismo, su tono es casi siempre el mismo. Como he leído alguna vez, puedes poner en hora tu reloj con el tiempo que tardan en pasar de un tropo a otro. Y, si lo haces tan bien como esta autora, el lector solo va a acabar con lágrimas de felicidad por haber leído una buena historia que se centra en dos estudiantes y sus avances y retrocesos en las relaciones con los demás. Lo que no quita para que siempre haya una pequeña ventana por la que tratar ciertos temas importantes.

En este caso, tenemos por un lado la exigencia en los estudios y en lo que eso convierte a los distintos personajes, y las expectativas paternas y cómo eso se cruza con los deseos de los más jóvenes. ¿Son temas trillados? Sí, claro, pero eso no es tan importante como el hecho de que toca las notas adecuadas para que el lector consiga identificarse con los personajes y entenderlos. Además, por muy trillados que estén, no son temas baladíes.

El tema «novedoso» que introduce la autora es la forma de uso de las redes sociales y lo importante que es recordar que detrás de cada cuenta hay una o varias personas (en el caso de las cuentas de trabajo).

En definitiva, nos encontramos con una novela ligera, divertida y con un tono irreverente pero al mismo tiempo que demuestra que conoce cada uno de los tropos y sabe cómo aprovecharlo al máximo. Si queréis disfrutar de unas tardes de diversión, este libro es el vuestro, sin duda.

Have you followed the twitter battle between Wendy's and Burger King? 𝘐𝘧 𝘯𝘰𝘵, 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘢𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨. Now imagine for a moment that two teenagers, in between school and swim practice, were managing those accounts. Throw in some love and delicious food. Sprinkle in family secrets and drama. Add just a pinch of that familiar teenage feeling of in-between and uncertainty and you have Tweet Cute.

I think what I loved so much about this novel is that at the surface it seems superficial, but it isn't. Pepper and Jack are real, developed characters that anyone can see themselves in. I'm in my thirties and I can still relate so much to not wanting to let my family down. I can still relate to not quite being certain what I even want to do with my life.

This is a tale that will relate to a wide-variety of readers but especially those who list You've Got Mail as one of their all-time favorite movies.

My heart is bursting with how deliciously sweet this was (get it?). I know it’s too soon to call it but what the heck! This book has definitely made it into my top 5 favorite books of 2020.

Just a little underwhelming to me. Not the worst thing I've read, but not the best either. It felt a little contrived.

Tweet Cute was as cute as everyone has been saying, and I loved the combined themes of family and food. There was, however, a lot going on with the plot and I felt it could've been scaled down a bit to allow for more development, specifically with the relationships between Pepper and her mom and Jack and Ethan. There were some deep issues brought up, and I personally would've loved to see more of that addressed. But I know the focus is on Pepper and Jack, and I loved their trajectory. It was written "all over the place"—which might sound like a bad thing, but I don't mean it to be! It was very reflective of how messy life gets.

This is very much a product of the current times, which I personally really enjoyed but have no idea whether or not it will still be interesting five years from now! Still, it was fun.

I picked up Tweet Cute by Emma Lord because it sounded super cute, and I’m ALL about cute reads with happily ever after’s right now. After reading the summary for the book, I knew I need to check it out, and I’m so glad that I did!

There are SO many things that I loved about Tweet Cute, with the main thing being the characters. Pepper and Jack are SO cute, and I very much enjoyed following their story and interactions over the course of the novel. They were so cute, and I love that if you put their names together, it’s PEPPER JACK. How cute is that??

I also really enjoyed the storyline for the book. It very much reminded me of the movie You’ve Got Mail with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, which just happens to be one of my most favorite movies, which I have watched at least 200 times. (Which is probably why the story for Tweet Cute seemed so familiar!) I was completely fascinated by the story, and it didn’t take me long to become absolutely hooked. I loved it!

And while I have the printed version of this book, I opted to listen to the audiobook instead, and I’m so glad that I did! Dan Bittner & Emily Shaffer did such great jobs with the voices for Pepper and Jack, and it took the story to a whole new level for me. It was great! If you have the opportunity to check out the audiobook, I highly recommend it!

Overall; Tweet Cute was absolutely adorable, and was exactly the book I needed to read at the moment. I am definitely fascinated by Emma’s writing, and I can’t wait to read more by her in the future! If you don’t already have this book on your TBR, do add it today!

Happy Reading!

Okay, this was SO CUTE. Such a refreshing and modern YA contemporary romance!

I don't really have a ton of thoughts on this one. Pepper and Jack were enjoyable and real main characters and their romance was absolutely adorable. The side characters were a great addition as well (especially Paul omg je just deserves the best). Also, I was SO HERE for all of the pop culture references throughout. Sometimes I'm annoyed by references in books, but Emma Lord just did such good job inserting them into the story that it actually worked IMO.

I HIGHLY recommend this if you're looking for a fun, light YA romance. Thank you so much to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an e-arc in exchange for an honest review!

This is super duper cute!
Only downside is that the whole thing with their parents was maybe a bit much, but then again it did tie it together nicely and gave a proper reason for the whole feud.
I also want all of the recipes.

This is adorable. I enjoyed it from start to finish.

Contemporary is doing a lot more with social media and this one was a great blend of the two!

I loved the twitter fights and the general miscommunication that comes with being a teen.

I loved all the characters and how human they felt. Sometimes teens read like their lives are too easy and too spoiled. That’s definitely not how it was when I was a teen and not how it was for these characters either.

I loved all the awful and yet hilarious desert names and I have made I’m sorry brownies now 😂

4.5/5 Stars

This was the cutest darn debut on the planet! I devoured this little gem of a book faster than Jack devoured Pepper's monster cake. It was that delicious!

The premise of this story is really what drew me in. I read the synopsis and immediately knew that I had to read this book. I just loved the invigorating plot of this book. The entire story was fun, entertaining, and so addicting. I really meshed with Lord's writing style. It really spoke to me. The narration was brilliant and so immersive. This book really felt like more of a mature young adult book instead of being powderpuff cute. The book does focus on some deeper things. While there is plenty of humor in the story, Lord doesn't skimp on the emotional aspects of the story either. There was such a perfect balance.

I really loved these characters. These were hands down some of the most realistic and authentic characters that I have read in a long time. These are real people with real problems and real lives. The reader is absorbed into their lives effortlessly. It was so easy to fall head over heels for these characters. I loved that they had distinct personalities that really made them stand out. Both main characters, Pepper and Jack, had a lot of depth and their character development was spectacular. I very much loved all of the secondary characters. I also really loved the representation of both family and friendship found in the story.

The majority of the romance in the story is Pepper and Jack getting to know each other and falling for each other. More like friends, really. Which isn't a bad thing. I liked them a lot as friends and as a couple. I truly loved their innate chemistry with one another. There could have been a little bit more making out though.

Overall, this story really blew me away. This is a story that I am really enthusiastic about. This was a truly brilliant debut and I can't wait for what's next from this author.

I understand all the hype behind this book. It really is "cute," but is also serious when it needs to be. The banter between Jack and Pepper is so wonderful. It's clear that they enjoy ribbing each other too much to ever truly be enemies, but the process of the two of them figuring that out is a joy to see. Some aspects of their crazy competitive school felt a little unrealistic, especially the idea that students would somehow be punished for using an app, but this book brought up a good message about learning for the joy of learning rather than trying to beat out everyone else. I really enjoyed this!

A cute and wholesome YA romance focusing on two teenagers whose families run rival restaurants and the snarky twitter war started when the chain restaurant copies a menu item from the local restaurant. This one is sort of an enemies to friends to fake enemies to lovers kind of story. And I was here for it.

Is it wrong to call this one cute? An enjoyable read. Simply adorable from start to finish. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great book!

This adorable debut by Emma Lord had me hooked from the beginning. It follows two teens, Pepper and Jack, as they battle it out online and in real life. One of their main gripes with each other is that Pepper's family's franchise chain, Big League Burger, has seemingly stolen the recipe for a grilled cheese from Jack's family's deli, Girl Cheesing. As they roast each on Twitter, they also grow closer together in real life.

One of my favorite parts about the structure of the novel was how Pepper and Jack were communicating to each in three different roles without realizing they were always speaking to each other. Firstly, they know each as rivals at their school where they jibe over schoolwork as well as the swim team's they are both on. Secondly, they chat on the school's unofficial social media app, known as Weazel, under the aliases of Bluebird (Pepper) and Wolf (Jack). It is actually first on that platform where they first start catching feelings for each other. Finally, they are each running the respective Twitter accounts of their family businesses, for Pepper that is Big League Burger and for Jack it is Girl Cheesing. This complicated-from-the-start has a delicious sense of dramatic irony as we as the audience know that all of these different personas actually belong to the same two characters. Moreover, the narrative switches between the two characters' points-of-view, so the audience learns more about the characters individually than they learn about each other.

Another aspect that I really enjoyed was all the pop culture references the characters make throughout the novel. They listen to Taylor Swift, they watch Riverdale, and they study like Blair Waldorf. However, even though I enjoyed these references to modern life and popular culture, I also know that these references will the date the novel to our specific time period and cultural phenomena. But contemporary novels are never really known for their longevity, are they?

Food obviously plays an important role in Tweet Cute, as both character's have an intimate relationship with food. Both of their families own restaurant's and Pepper even runs a baking blog with her sister. Inspired by all of the recipes and descriptions of food found in the novel, I tried my hand at making the "stolen" grilled cheese known in the novel as Grandma's Special and I have to tell you, Emma Lord (as well as the characters in the book) really know what they're talking about. I won't spoil the secret recipe here so you'll have to read the book to find out!

This was such a cute read. Its really incredible that this is a debut author. It is so relatable to what goes on now. Its a romance that is relevant to the younger population. The use of memes and "tweets" are ways of communication now and this is how people communicate now. We hear all the time that some famous person is in a twitter battle with someone else. This is the modern You've Got Mail. It was a really easy and quick read. Once you start you are immediately engrossed in what's going on.

Such a fun, entertaining rom-com! I loved the characters and Emma Lord did a great job putting a fresh twist on a common trope (enemies to lovers). Thanks to the publisher for the advanced copy.

I've been meaning to read this one for awhile and while the characters and the banter were top class, it was hard to suspend my disbelief at times. This is certainly a cute romcom, but we've seen it before.

Thank you NetGalley and Wednesday Books for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is probably more a 4.5 than a 4 stars!

This book took me by surprise!! I almost finished it in one day which is the best feeling ever. I just couldn't stop reading. Jack and Pepper are amazing and so cute aah. Jack is adorable, I love him so much omg. I really enjoyed the Twitter war! I was kind of hesitant about this because I thought it would be kind of cringy but oh my god I loved it. The whole Twitter war took a whole different turn than I was expecting and it was amazing. I really didn't like Pepper's mom though. She was just very annoying and I felt so bad for Pepper.

Also, THE EPILOGUE AAAAAH. Amazing, just amazing.

Tweet cute was a light hearted read that follows the food wars of two teenagers. I thought it was a very cute concept that wasn’t just a little cheesy (sort of pun intended). I think there was a lot more that could have been told about this story, but it was still enjoyable.


I received a copy of Tweet Cute from NetGalley in exchange for an honest and fair review.

As soon as I read the synopsis I knew I would need to get my contemp loving hands on this book! And I knew I would love it. And of course I did. And listen, this was one of the cutest books I’ve read in a long time.


The class clown and the valedictorian meet in a Twitter war for the ages over a grilled cheese sandwich. One feels like the other stole a sacred recipe and the other feels they they did no such thing, and they’re duking it out on Twitter. In doing so, they find out so much more about the other and themselves…. And their parents.


I LOVED this. I’m a sucker for a good rom-com, so this was right up my alley. And it most definitely was. There were times it made me literally laugh out loud. I snorted at a couple of the lines and got strange looks from co-workers. That’s just how much I laughed. After finishing this, I went to find the author on Twitter, and you’ll be happy to know, Lord is just as hilarious on Twitter as these two were.


The romance in this one was ok, but I wish there was more of it. I mean since I shipped them the entire book. But we don’t get the romance until the end. I know the point of this book is a Twitter war where they’re going at it, but still. If there’s anyone that can honestly say they shipped someone other than those two, I want to know what book they read because I somehow missed it lol


The only thing I didn’t care for was her Mom. I don’t like saying this about Moms, but her was a JERK. This entire situation was SUPER PETTY. And you listened to your kids for everything else, but not for when she’s telling you something important. It was such a stupid grudge and I really wanted to shake her and say “GROW UP” when it was revealed. I was hoping it was like they were related or something lol


I can’t be the only one who was reminded of the Popeyes vs Chickfila war. I can’t help but wonder if that’s where this idea stemmed from? It seems like the weirdest thing to write a book over, but it actually worked. Like really worked. I can’t wait to see what pop culture topic she’ll write her next book on!

This was such a cute read that I just could not put down. I have been taking 5 and sometimes longer days to finish a 300 page book lately, but this one I blew through. It was an easy read, that was filled with humor, great characters, and amazing dessert recipe ideas. (Also, I need to find a way I can make the Monster Cake but Keto style lol) I hope everyone who reads this book loves it as much as I do.
