I really enjoyed this book! The characters were great and relatable and I liked the plot overall! I would definitely recommend!

This book tells a story of an author who lost her believe in happy ending and her journey through writers block. To be honest I did not enjoy this book I found the character development to be shallow and was unable to connect with them. Furthermore I felt no excitement for the story and felt no happy thrill that romance novels often give me.

Super cute, easy romcom with nothing crazy going on. I really enjoyed the two authors getting together aspect.

3.5 stars. Gomer is a new author for me and The Plot Twist was a fun read! I enjoyed the storyline and unique twists and turns in the characters and the story. I did struggle a little with the reactions of both main characters in how they responded to the secret being revealed. I didn't feel their reactions were realistic. And I wanted a few more details added to parts of the story. Overall an entertaining read! Thanks Netgalley

I liked the idea of the plot twist and the characters of Allie and Martin. Overall it moved a bit too slow for me but was an easy read. Thank you to Net Galley for the ARCin exchange for my honest opinion

Thank you to @OneMoreChapter for my copy of *The Plot Twist* by Eleanor Goymer.

I devoured this book in just two days! It follows Allie and her journey in the publishing world as she struggles to regain her spark.

I really enjoyed the relationship between Martin and Allie. Their shared stories of crime and romance brought a smile to my face, especially as I saw how their friendship developed.

I love how dedicated Martin is to his wife, Angie; his care for her truly shines through.

I also empathize with Verity, who finds herself in a difficult situation, and Jake sounds like a horrible boss—truly hard to work with.

If you’re looking for a book that will make you smile and swoon, this is it!

I found this book kinda difficult to read just because I couldn't relate/connect with the main characters. I am someone who needs to either enjoy the writing or just like the characters and in that case it didn't work. That being said, I liked the premise of the book, I mean it had potential but I was left a bit disappointed. The story dragged for me at times and overall I found it bland...

*The Plot Twist* by Eleanor Goymer is an enjoyable read, though it doesn’t quite live up to its potential. As the plot unfolded, it felt a bit predictable. While the characters are likable, I struggled to connect with them on a deeper level. The pacing is uneven, with some sections dragging on longer than necessary. That said, Goymer’s writing is engaging enough to keep you turning the pages. Overall, it’s a decent read, but it didn’t quite deliver the excitement I expected.

A huge thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and Eleanor Goymer for providing me with an ARC of The Plot Twist in exchange for my honest review.

In The Plot Twist, Eleanor Goymer crafts an engaging romance centered around Allie Edwards, a romcom author grappling with a frustrating case of writer's block. Allie’s creativity seems to have hit a wall, but things take an interesting turn when she meets another author who is also stuck in a creative rut. Together, they strike up a pact to help each other push through their blocks and rediscover their inspiration. As Allie navigates this partnership, she also faces a personal upheaval when her relationship comes to an end. But fate (and perhaps a bit of serendipity) steps in when she meets Will, a charming caterer, at a publishing event.

Goymer excels at creating a lighthearted and relatable atmosphere. The chemistry between Allie and Will is delightful, and while their romantic trajectory may follow familiar romcom tropes, it doesn’t diminish the charm of their story. In fact, the predictability is part of the novel's comfort and appeal. Allie’s challenges, both professional and personal, are portrayed with humor and authenticity, making her a protagonist readers can root for.

What makes The Plot Twist stand out is not just the central romance but also the well-developed subplots. The dynamic between Allie and her fellow struggling author offers a refreshing take on collaboration, competition, and the writing process. Goymer cleverly weaves themes of creative burnout and perseverance into the narrative, giving the story an extra layer of depth. The secondary characters, from quirky publishing industry insiders to supportive friends, add color and texture to the world Goymer builds. Each of them plays a role in Allie’s journey, enhancing the novel's emotional resonance.

While the story delivers the expected feel-good moments, Goymer’s writing ensures that the journey feels satisfying rather than cliché. Her prose is witty and engaging, making the novel a pleasure to read from start to finish. The insights into the life of a romcom writer are particularly entertaining, offering a playful, self-aware perspective on the genre itself.

In conclusion, The Plot Twist is a delightful, uplifting read that fans of romantic comedy will surely enjoy. It offers a perfect blend of humor, heart, and a touch of behind-the-scenes literary life. If you’re looking for a book that embraces the joy of storytelling, personal growth, and second chances, this one’s for you. I’m eagerly looking forward to reading more of Eleanor Goymer’s works and seeing what she has in store next.

The Plot Twist by Eleanor Goymer was a cute, funny, quick read - just what I needed.

I thoroughly enjoyed the relationship between Allie and Martin. A wholesome and platonic M/F friendship with nothing romantic in-between, but oh, the banter! A basic found family, including Martin's wife.

The love interest, Will, was a snack! This relationship felt like I was reading a movie play out in front of my eyes. Hot, humorous, genuine, loving...all of the things we look for in a partner.

Read this if you love rom-coms with a twist (pun intended)! You won't be disappointed.

Thank you so much to One More Chapter | HarperCollins UK, NetGalley, and Eleanor Goymer for the request to read this book. I humbly give my honest opinion above.

This was such a good book. I loved the story and the writing so much. The characters were great and the story flowed smoothly. Will definitely read more books by this author in the future.

Aaaaaaah! This was so cute and fun, I absolutely devoured it!

Super easy and quick to read, maybe a touch predictable, but that's what I wanted at this moment. So I have no issues with that. Especially because I had just read Not in My Book and was craving another book like that (and this fit the bill).

The writing flowed and was easy to follow and overall, I had a great time reading this.

I loved the opposites attract thing going on here and how both main characters are bookish (authors).

I really don't have anything else to say beyond "I recommend this, it was so fun and cute!" And I think that alone says a lot.

Thanks to NetGalley for the e-ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!

My Goodreads review is up and my TikTok (Z0e_Lipman) review will be up at the end of the month with my monthly reading wrap-up.

I really enjoyed the characters in this book! Their back-and-forth banter was hilarious. A refreshing take on writers falling in love.

Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The premise of the book is captivating, but I felt the execution fell short in some areas. While the discussions about the creative process and the challenges of being a writer were interesting, the characters lacked depth and emotional development, making it hard to fully connect with them. Additionally, I feel they were many storylines going on that can be confusing at times.

2.5⭐️

Best way for me to get this out is a pros and cons list

Pros:
- the relationship between Allie and Martin
- the overall concept of the book. Even though it's nothing new, I like the way Martin came into the picture.

Cons:
-the pacing of the story was way too slow for me. It felt like it kept going and going, but nothing was really being said.
- All those extra storylines felt very unfinished, and I think if the author stuck to a couple of them and finish those instead of having everything be jumbled
-Too much going on with the side characters and side stories
In the end, I kept putting this book down because I really was getting so frustrated with how slow it was reading and all the different sub plots. This was my first book by this author and I think I'm just gonna hold off on reading anymore.

I ate this up. The romance. The banter. The characters. It was *chefs kiss* perfect!
Thank you to NetGalley for an arc of this

This was such a lovely and fresh take on a “bookish” book. I loved the mentorship part of the story the most and felt like it really shined! It was so fun. The romance was sweet. The characters were lovely. Overall, a fun and happy read!

It's always lovely to read a book ABOUT books so I really liked this! I wish there had been slightly more opportunity for the romance to develop as it felt slightly rushed and overshadowed by several other storylines that were happening at the same time. Overall, a lovely book!

El ha sido un personaje de 10 al que le ha faltado un POV para hacer el libro muchísimo mejor. Ella ha sido un personaje que me ha irritado en algunas ocasiones y no entendía la mayor parte de sus razonamientos. Aún así la premisa del libro es muy muy buena, y aunque el inicio es algo más lento, el rumbo que toma la historia y su desenlace son muy buenos.

Thank you NetGalley and publisher for this book!!

What a good book!! This one had me hooked from page one! I could t put it down. I loved the writing style of this book. I lived the characters and they had great chemistry.
