Fun, enjoyable, and very heartwarming! I was lucky enough to have received an eARC for this sweet book, which was all about the girl/boy next door. I read the synopsis for this book and was automatically intrigued, as it involved a trope I had not read in a while. The story was so real to me that I could vividly imagine how everything played out and see these characters brought to life.

Grace is such a great character, so well developed and so much fun to read, as well as Noah, even though he was a tad of an asshole, just saying. Both Grace and Noah were so much fun to read and the tension between them was amazingly written. Its a very light and quick read that I think many will love!

One thing I might say is that the characters seemed to act a little younger than their age range. When I started reading I placed them all between 21-25 and the range was 26+ mostly! Nothing wrong with that, just that it was awkward on occasions thinking about how a grown adult was acting more like a teenager or young adult than a 30+ year old, you know. But it was overall okay!

3.5 stars.

This book was a cute concept, and the end was really sweet. I just felt like maybe it dragged on a bit?

Sophie Sullivan's "How to Love Your Neighbor" is perfect for anyone who has dreams of interior design with a smoking hot neighbor. Honestly, it combines all the best parts of a beachy read - beautiful beach vistas, sexual tension with a hot new neighbor who you didn't get off to a good start with, and a limitless budget to redo their entire home. I am in.

Noah and Grace were not very friendly and definitely didn’t like being neighbors especially since Noah wants Grace’s house!

I wasn’t prepared for the amazing experience that is this book! Grace and Noah started off on the totally wrong foot but when they team up for unsuspecting reasons they discover that maybe they had each other all wrong!

The story itself is very sweet! It takes awhile for things to build but I loved getting to know the characters as we went along!

Grace has the purest heart and she gives her all! She teaches Noah to believe in himself and that he deserves love! Noah is strong and is used to carrying the load but being around Grace comes easy to him! They banter and hilarious barbs had me rolling in laughter, but his heartfelt moments are when he shined!

Thank you, NetGalley for sending this ARC for an honest review!

It was a contemporary rom-com romance,, I really enjoyed reading and laughing out loud.

Grace and Noah you are going to love their characters. He wants her house and she's not selling, a love-hate relationship You will really enjoy this book when it comes out by Sophie Sullivan.

Written great! Pick up your copy when this comes out!!

Loveddddd this book! Grace and Noah were great characters with perfect chemistry. Read the entire book in one sitting - just devoted it. Irresistible!

Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for blessing me with this eARC in exchange for an honest review.
And I did feel blessed. I LOVED IT. It pulled me right out of my slump, and had me sneaking pages at my desk and hiding in the bathroom so I could keep reading. My soul need a good romance and this hit SO MANY TROPES in ALL MY FAVORITE WAYS.
Sunshine meets grump✔
Enemies to lovers? ✔
Forced Proximity? ✔
Reformed rich asshole ✔
Sassy retired folks? ✔
We get to watch the characters GROW. We get to enjoy the relationship instead of them getting together in the last 5 pages. We even get cameos from Everly & Chris from 10 Rules For Faking It.
For me, this was 5 stars.

I enjoyed this book Grace has baggage from her past but is working on not letting it interfere with her future . Noah has some as well. He wants her house and she's not selling. This has meet cute, humor and realism as well. 3 stars.

This book was amazing! It is the perfect happy ending romance, very heartwarming and light read. I really enjoyed Grace and Noah's banters and OMG at the surprises they do for each other. They are truly couple goals.

I really enjoyed this book as it was such an adorable enemies to lovers story which is my favorite trope. I like how the characters didn’t spend the whole book hating each other and I did feel like their relationship kept building. I love their competitive banter and the cast of side characters.

The only thing for me is that I like a little more steam though I did enjoy the non-steamy, swoon-worthy moments ❤️.

3.75 stars ! this book was cute and as you can probably sum up, the theme is finding your home whether it’s an actual house or a person.

this book follows grace and noah who go from angry enemy neighbors to friends to lovers (and that friends to lovers section really got me). throughout they renovate a house, deal through parental drama, and finding the meaning of home.

it was a cute little book, nothing awakening in me too deeply but it was just so sweet how they trusted each other in taking those leaps of faith for one another. i love a good home renovation show/story and reading this was exciting. i wanna see photos of this imaginary home now ugh we love a before and after!!!

The stand-alone sort of sequel to Ten Rules for Faking It ( Yes the main couple from that also reappears in this book!) though you can read it without having read the first book (however, I absolutely adored the first book so I would definitely recommend it!). An interior design student moves in next door to a grumpy rich guy who is determined to buy out her home. Grace hasn’t always had it easy, she works a ton of jobs and is just trying to finish school and get her dream job. She has an inherited a home and has finally made the step into moving it, it’s an adorable little house on the beach... everything is great until she meets her new neighbor. Noah Jansen is a real estate developer who is determined to make his dream home come true, and the way to do that is to buy the property next to his so he can expand his land, too bad the hot new neighbor refuses to sell. Soon Noah and Grace are feuding and doing petty childish things to each other, all while struggling with the growing feelings between them. Soon Noah finds himself inviting Grace over to work on his own home and soon sparks get flying. But can the differences between these two feuding neighbors really be overcome? I liked Grace but just couldn’t find Noah to be all that appealing and didn’t really see the chemistry between the two of them. I was happy to see my fav couple from her previous book in this one and would definitely recommend that one! Though this one just didn’t live up to my expectations, I will definitely be reading from this author again. I can’t wait to see what she writes next and if she continues to add onto this universe she’s created. Though this one wasn’t for me, maybe the next one will be!

3 stars! When I see neighbor romance, I immediately click. There is just something about the girl-next-door type of romances that draws me in. Unfortunately I felt pretty neutral about HTLYN. With its adorable cover and neighbor romance plot, I thought this would be a hook line and sinker for me, but I read the last page feeling relatively underwhelmed. I never could quite connect to Grace and that largely had to do with the writing style. I always felt like I was touching the surface of Grace's personality and I couldn't really relate to her character. Oh, I do love a grumpy romantic interest, and Noah being Grace's neighbor was a double win. Yet, nothing about Noah and Grace's interactions were very memorable for me. This book is one that's fun to pass the time with but it's also one that will leave my head just days after finishing it (maybe even sooner).

i thought this book was super cute! i read it all in one night! the characters were really fun- i loved grace, shes so cool- and it's a great enemies to friends to lovers romcom! i rated it four stars because while it was really cute and i enjoyed it a lot, it isn't something that is going to consume my thoughts for days on end, which is my criteria for a five star book. however, i highly recommend for a light and easy and satisfying read!

How to Love Your Neighbor was such a cute read. I instantly connected to Grace after hearing her background. I loved how even though she had a rough upbringing she was still determined to make the house her home. After meeting Noah's character I was a little iffy of him in the beginning. It was exasperating to read his multiple failed attempts to get her to sell him the house. But hearing his story with his father it explained a lot of things. I did like how the author incorporated both of their trauma from their respective parents. It is amazing to see how the author develops the characters even though they parents did hinder their emotional growth. I love the fact that Grace is an interior designer because I absolutely love anything that has to do with homemaking. So it was awesome to see how the author incorporated that job into the book. I think that How to Love Your Neighbor was a cute romance book for anyone who is in a reading slump! Thank you to Netgalley and the Publishing company for giving me this amazing opportunity to read this wonderful ARC.

**DNF

Alright I tried, I really tried to like this but it just couldn’t hold my attention.

I found the writing style a little hard to follow and the characters stale. I stopped reading at 34% - I just couldn’t push myself any further.

Actual Rating: 2.5 stars

The blurb for How to Love Your Neighbor really excited me, and I love neighbor romances, but the story just fell flat for me. There was no spark that made me want to keep reading till the end, and if I was someone that DNF’d I probably would have put this book down halfway through.

The chemistry between Noah and Grace was constantly mentioned, but sometimes their conversations and declarations felt more cheesy and forced than cute or exciting. Their relationship didn’t make me feel anything, and I didn’t get the feeling that these two people had to be together. I didn’t really get their connection as much as I would have wanted to. I also didn’t really have that emotional connection with their parent struggles, so the ending parts felt a little anticlimactic.

The competition with their friends and family was probably my favorite part of the story though, and I think I found the design parts way more interesting than their relationship. I did like all supporting characters though like Chris, Josh, Rosie, and Morty, and I thought the way they all needled and supported each other was fun. But overall, this is one that is going to be pretty unmemorable for me.

This was a delight! I thought the chemistry between the two main characters was extremely well done. For fans of romance I would recommend it.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

First off thank you NetGalley for an ARC of How to Love Your Neighbor. This book was super cute rom com style! It’s a perfect light read for the beach! I recommend this book!

This book was cute. HGTV meets enemy to lover romance. On the whole, this was an easy read. The characters were cute when they finally got together and grew on me as the story went on. Some parts at the end with each characters parents and the magazine articles being concluded felt sort of rushed and could have come earlier on to avoid this. At the end though all story lines had a sort of conclusion and it was a happy read. Good book for just some fun, light reading and a cute romance.

Thank you to Net Galley and St. Martins Press for the advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
