I really did not like the author's writing in the first book in the series and after reading a few pages of this one, it still isn't for me.

Thanks to One More Chapter for the eARC; all opinions are my own.

While I had high hopes for this o had to dnf. I’ve tried returning to it and o can not make myself. This one is just not for me.

This was unfortunately a DNF for me, whilst it was an anticipated read, I wasn't getting on with the authors style of writing, however that being said, this is a light-hearted story with a lovely romance for the right reader.

This was unfortunately a DNF for me, the writing style was really not for me and the plot couldn't overcome it in the end.

This was an overall lighthearted book with moments of emotion sprinkled throughout for a good contrast. I really enjoyed the dynamic between the two main characters and how their relationship developed throughout the book with a second chance romance plot.

This book was such a cute, quick, and fun read. Ava was such a relatable character that I loved her instantly. She was precious and it was hard not to be a fan of her and Cam right off the bat. I think that the two biggest strengths of this book were the voice of the author and the overall style of the author, as well as the backstory of the characters and how that contributed to their stories. It was such a unique story and it was still a fun read. I think that this book was so adorable overall!

Ava asks cam out on a date originally and gets shut down, with a little back and forth Ava thinks she can woo cam at her brothers wedding , which I feel does nothing for their dynamic . Then when Ava gets sick in a twist of sorts cam comes to her rescue and steps in to take care of her !! It’s a sweet small town romance with a second chance aspect .!!

This was a cute romcom, it did fall flat to me a couple times which in the end made this one a hit or miss at moments.. truthfully.. I couldn’t tell you much of what igs about. But i do remember it made me laugh a couple times

You're so vine is a cute rom com that felt a bit flat at times, the pacing to me was a bit hit and miss. That aside I felt it was written well and I liked the direction the storyline went. The characters were great together and I did enjoy how everything played out

You're So Vine by Catherine Robertson is a charming and delightful read! The main characters, Ava Durant and Cam Hollande are relatable and have undeniable chemistry. However, the pacing sometimes felt off, making some plot elements underdeveloped.

As the second instalment in the Flora Valley Series, the book further explores Ava and Cam's lives. Ava is strong, caring, and wonderfully aggressive, while Cam presents a mystery with his awkward charm. The tension around Cam and Shelby's mum, Lee, felt excessive. I sympathized with Ava's frustrations, but Cam's trust issues didn't provide her the reassurance she needed.

Their relationship is compelling as they navigate pasts and help each other grow, yet the rapid emotional intimacy felt too quick for my taste. The story had potential, but the brisk pace overshadowed the emotional depth. Seeing more of Shelby and the family added warmth. Overall, it's a sweet read that left me wanting more!

The storyline seemed so rushed. I wanted to see the characters develop their relationship a bit more but they just rushed everything and it was odd to read. It made no sense and I was just disappointed in all of the characters.

I hate the cover but loved the story. A great couple with just the right amount of fire burning inside this story.

You’re So Vine by Catherine Robertson was a cute and easy read! The main characters; they were really relatable and charming. However, the pacing did feel a bit off. The story moved too quickly for the plot elements, making some parts feel rushed and less developed than they could have been.

A light hearted and entertaining read and a good addition to the series. The characters are charming and I enjoyed the building of their relationship, however the ending left me wanting more. Maybe in the next installment?
Many thanks to HarperCollins UK and to Netgalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to receive this book for an honest review.
This book is the second book in the Flora Valley Series.
This book follows Ava Durant and Cam Hollande, which were introduced to in the first book.
Unfortunately, I did not read the first book but because of other reviews keep this one pending and go back and read the first one.

Sounds like a good Rom-Com.

Thank you so much to Netgalley and the author for providing me with this ARC for an honest review.

You’re So Vine is the second book in the Flora Valley Series. This book follows Ava Durant and Cam Hollande, both of these characters we are introduced to in the first book. I was quite intrigued to find more about Ava so was happy to have received this book.

There were a few things that I really liked about Ava, she was strong, caring and feisty. Cam is mysterious and awkward. The whole secrecy with Cam and Shelby’s mum Lee did start to grate. I was split between Ava’s reaction to Lee, on the one side it felt she was quite obsessive and mean towards Lee, but then on the other I was like well due to her major trust issues, Cam was not really reassuring her with what she needed. I felt like Cam was so hard on himself, especially with what he has been through. I like Cam’s character but felt he gave into Ava quite a lot for reasons he didn’t need too.

Ava and Cam did seem to help one another heal from their past history - they understood one another and helped to guide each other to become better people. They did seem to go quite back and forth a lot considering the book only covered a couple of days. They both got very comfortable with each other very fast.

I felt like this book was a little rushed, I just feel it had so much potential to be so strong, but because of the fact paced of the characters relationship, I just felt I couldn’t enjoy the story as much. It was lovely to see more of Shelby and Nate, as well as the rest of the family.

Against, as with the last one I read by this author, I just didn’t like the characters which made it hard to enjoy the storyline sadly!

I thought this was very good and I will have to add this to the shop shelves. Thank you for the chance for us to review.

A tale of two toxic people falling in love in the span of 4 days. I found the characters to be annoying & storyline was ultimately boring.

I really tried to get into this book, but there are so many characters and I just couldn't follow the plot! I did enjoy the writing and descriptions, I thought it was definitely a fun read, just not for me.
I will try to pick back up at another time, but for now it's going to be a DNF. Thank you for the advanced copy!
