Mia Rosette’s Editing Emily is a delightful and engaging introduction to the Faking It in the City series. Blending romance, humor, and a touch of mystery, the novel offers an entertaining escape for contemporary fiction lovers. The dynamic between the main characters crackles with chemistry, filled with witty banter and playful interactions that make for a compelling read.

Rosette’s writing is both sharp and immersive, pulling readers into a world of publishing, secrets, and romantic tension. The balance of lighthearted romance with intriguing twists keeps the story fresh and enjoyable. With its charming storytelling and engaging plot, Editing Emily is an irresistible read that will leave fans eager for the next installment in the series.

I absolutely loved Editing Emily! The way Mia Rosette weaves the different aspects of Emily's life together is fantastic. The premise of Emily inheriting a Brownstone in New York City, hoping for a fresh start, quickly turning into a new disaster was both intriguing and relatable. The tension between Emily’s desire for independence and her controlling boyfriend, Andy, was intense and added so much depth to the story.

The progression of Emily's journey, from ejecting Andy from her life to taking a chance on the four women who need a place to stay, was empowering and felt like the right path for her. And Sebastian, the charismatic bad-boy, definitely kept me on my toes—he was both a source of excitement and mystery. The way he helped Emily with her personal struggles was unexpected, but also incredibly sweet.

However, the ending threw me for a loop! I didn’t realize it was going to end the way it did, and now I’m left eagerly waiting for the next book. I know the next installment will focus on Cat, but I’m really hoping that Emily gets her happy ending too. The emotional rollercoaster was worth it, but I can't wait to see how her story evolves!

It's a perfect blend of empowerment, self-discovery, and resilience, and I highly recommend it!

Firstly, the cover on this is absolutely beautiful and I am absolutely obsessed with it !

The story was a whole vibe from start to finish and I loved it! I love a romance book so I was a sucker for it !

I would recommend this book to everyone and anyone who loves to read !!

I didn't know much about this book going into it, however, I am glad I read it. Emily's parents recently died and left her some money and their home for her. Her and her boyfriend have differing opinions about what she should do with the house which leads to them going separate ways. Emily would like to be a full time writer but is not there quite yet but begins writing a blog about her sexual experiences (trying to orgasm for the first time). She has 4 girl roommates to help her be able to afford to live in the home she was left and work on renovating it to turn it into a B&B. She goes on a journey to try and have her first orgasm. Her roommates quickly become a sisterhood for her which I really liked to see! Of course, she meets a guy but I don't want to spoil that for you. I recommend this book if you are in a slump or just need something easy to read.

Firstly, it does actually have a vibe similar to the "Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants", so I don't feel lied to, which is a pro. In what way? It's not strictly a romance, as it is about so much more, and that's a good thing here. Maybe it's not amazing or life-changing, but it kept me hooked. The group of friends is nice, and by the end I was able to tell who was who, which is good (I'm bad with names on paper). The subplots are also interesting and easy to follow.

It was nice reading about a woman who has problems with achieving an orgasm, because not many books explore that. What I didn't like is how quickly it was fixed and forgotten. It felt cheap and chipped away the meaningfulness of the whole thing. I can guarantee that if you have problems with coming, a hot guy is not going to fix them right away, no matter how magical he is - you still need time and trying out different options.

Overall, I had a lot of fun, and would love to read the next books in the series when they come out. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!

The next thing here is going to be a big spoiler, so stop reading if you want to avoid it! I just have to vent.

Sebastian is the biggest piece of sh*t on this planet and that's abundantly clear from like chapter 27 or something, when she gets to the resort to do her job. I'm so grateful that she didn't get together with him in the end, because I was mad at everything that was happening for the last 12 chapters. I wanted to throw stuff. I hated him so much, and the way she was acting around him, being so forgiving and - frankly - stupid was sooo annoying. I was strongly considering lowering the rating just because of this entitled, narcistic, god-complex-having, stealing as*hole who can't do anything right but blames everyone else for his incompetence. At the end of the day, though, it was entertaining to read, and she did in fact told him 'no' in the end, so all's good (she should've thrown his ass out the door and scream her lungs out or something, not feel sad, but I'll take it).

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.
