All the Men I’ve Loved Again was well-written and certainly has some great pop culture references for the time (the story is set in 1999.) This is a coming of age story about Cora as she goes to college and is eventually forced to choose between two men who she connected with.

While this book was well-written, I just couldn’t relate to Cora and I didn’t feel very invested in the story. I felt like things were dragging and I had to make myself read more. I think it just wasn’t a good fit for me, and it could certainly be a great book for someone else!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read and review this book.

I received a free copy of All the Men I’ve Loved Again from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I tried really hard to get into this book but unfortunately, I just couldn’t.

Our team did not like this book. It was not well written, some team members called it “dry” and decided it wouldn’t fit the brand. Thank you, NetGalley, for the advance copy!

The book was fine, but I didn’t love it. Lincoln was quite unlikable to me, and he’s such a big part of the book. I wish Aaron was a bigger part of the book. I loved Neisha, but Cora was a bit pretentious to me.

All the Men I’ve Loved Again had such an interesting premise—a coming of age story that dives into love, friendship, and self discovery with a fresh spin on the love triangle trope. The writing was solid, and I was invested in Cora’s journey as she figured out who she is and what she really wants.

One of my favorite parts? Cora’s dad. He was such a great character and brought so much heart to the story. While I enjoyed certain aspects, I didn’t connect with it as much as I’d hoped. Still, it was a unique take on a classic trope, and if you’re into introspective, character driven reads, this one might be for you!

Wow. All the Men I’ve Loved Again by Christine Pride took me on such an emotional ride. It’s one of those books that makes you reflect on your own life, the “what ifs,” and the loves that shaped you.

Cora’s journey—falling in love young, losing it, and then reconnecting with past loves in her forties—felt so real and raw. The way Pride captured nostalgia, regret, and hope all at once? Stunning. I found myself rooting for Cora, cringing at some of her choices, and totally swooning at others.

That being said, I did wish some relationships got more time—Aaron, especially, felt a little underdeveloped. But the story’s heart? It’s all there. If you’ve ever wondered about the one that got away (or the one you’re glad did), this book will hit home. A beautifully messy, heartfelt read.

Thanks for the review copy. This is a great coming-of-age story. It was very compelling and rich. I know people are going to love this one.

Wow! What a roller coaster of a book! A great page-turner for the summer seasons!

I loved following Cora's journey as she sorts out her decades-long love triangle. Although the ending was predictable, the story still kept me engaged and yearning for more. Lincoln or Aaron?? Aaron or Lincoln?? More so than the romance, Cora's other relationships with her father and her friends were the highlights for me. I dare anyone to read the chapter about Cora's father and not bawl. I feel as though "All the Men I've Loved Again" reiterates that the relationships we have outside of romantic ones are pillars on which we stand. I love seeing these stories portrayed and definitely kept me engaged throughout the book.

Would recommend to anyone who wants a romance novel that doesn't center solely on the love relationships, and wants a fun summer read!

This was much more a young woman coming of age story than a love triangle. Both relationships, one in particular, take a backseat to Cora’s growth and self-discovery. It’s also an ode to friendship and seeing each other through ups and downs, being there no matter what, and how that looks in different circumstances. Cora meets Lincoln when she is a freshman in college. She is instantly captivated by him. A few years later, she meets Aaron and their connection, also palpable from the beginning, seems more mature. Twenty-ish years later, both men are back in her life and Cora has some decisions to make.

Cora wasn’t always my favorite, most of the characters in the book have their flaws (except Wes, he’s perfect!), but I enjoyed the story. Being roughly the same age as Cora, there was an element of nostalgia for me, but what I enjoyed the most was how Pride puts feelings and emotions into perfect phrases. So many gems resonated with me that I wished I had a physical copy to highlight.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a digital copy and a chance to read this early. All opinions are my own.

Solid debut novel about an elder-millennial woman who has a second chance at love with not 1, but 2 men, though I would be remiss if I didn't point out that the love triangle is highly favored toward one suitor, making for far less triangularity that the description purports. I enjoyed the 90's backdrop of Cora's coming of age story as well as her time in college, which was not dissimilar to my own despite being behind her a few years. The plot ebbed and flowed, with some parts slower than others, but overall this was an enjoyable romance and a fun way to welcome the spring/summer reading season.

This book was really well written, even though I normally don’t reach for books written in a more biography/memoir writing style. I enjoyed this. I think that it really drove home the coming of age plot line, rather than being written as a contemporary romance style story. Our main character can be frustrating at times, but all of the characters and their flaws made it feel like they were real people and I always love that in fiction. The romance wasn’t as compelling as I wanted it to be, but I think maybe I’m not a fan of love triangles.

Great read! First read from this author. This book makes me want to read more from this author. Kept my attention and interest until the end.

I absolutely loved this book from beginning to end. I have not read a book like this in a long time, if ever. I love a good coming to age story and watching Cora find herself, gain confidence and just overall go through life it felt so raw and relatable and I couldn’t ask for more from a book.
So much was fit into a book less than 300 pages and I was hooked from the beginning. I adored Cora’s relationship with her father as well as her relationship with Lincoln in college. It was so well written and displayed. The pure form of love they had could be felt from the pages.

Cora’s friendships was another one of my favorite parts of this book. from college roommates to adults to drifting apart and coming back together. I just loved the realistic aspect of this entire book and I wouldn’t rate it anything under 5 stars.

I really enjoyed Cora's character and appreciated the flashbacks to her college years. She was easy to like, and I found myself rooting for her to find happiness.

Thank you Atria Books and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review!

All the Men I’ve Loved Again is a coming-of age-story about first loves, finding yourself, learning to love, and second chances.

I enjoyed getting to see Cora come out of her shell. I also loved her friend group. I wish we got to see more of Aaron, but overall I enjoyed this book and give it 3.5 stars.

You’d think a woman in her forties would have her life figured out a bit more and wouldn’t be so indecisive about the men she’s dated. I’m sorry I couldn’t commit to the plot unfortunately

*All the Men I've Loved Before* is a heartfelt and engaging exploration of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery. Through a series of past relationships, the protagonist reflects on the lessons learned, the mistakes made, and the growth that comes with each experience. The writing is witty and insightful, making it easy to connect with the emotional highs and lows.

While some chapters feel stronger than others, the book as a whole offers a relatable and thought-provoking look at modern relationships. *All the Men I've Loved Before* is a compelling read for anyone who enjoys stories of love, loss, and personal evolution.

This was a thoughtful and well-written romance novel. I enjoyed the split timeline and character development. Not as dishy and lighthearted as I prefer, but if you like a romance novel that leans more on the serious side, this is for you!

This book was not for me. I’m not personally into love triangles and I just cannot get on a board with a woman in her 40s being THAT indecisive. I felt like she strung these men along in a really unfair way and she drove me nuts!

A love triangle, but maybe more a women’s fiction?
This was a very sweet, albeit predictable book. I found it slow and cheesy at times but overall enjoyed it very much and recommend. Thank you NetGalley for the arc!
