Once Upon a Boy Band by Jenny Proctor
5.0
Thank you @bookedwiththeemilys @jennyproctorbooks for a gifted copy of this book!
This book is available now.
When I saw the title of this book, if you don't know me, you know I had to sign up for this book tour! After I read the first 50 pages, I knew this book was the book for me. I have never read this author before but I have seen her book around the book community. And honestly I am ready for the next book in this series.
"I've actually been pretty proud of myself today. I met Leo and Jace and hung out with all of Midnight Rush at the same time and I didn't lose my cool."
"Flint Hawthrone was the last straw, huh? You couldn't handle it anymore."
"It was."
This book gave me so many swoony moments and I felt that Laney was just so relatable!! I felt like she had the appropriate reaction when she learned that the man she started dating was in her favorite boy band. And the way she found out, made me laugh out loud! It was prefect!
I just love the relationship between Adam and Laney. They were both too shy to make a first move but an opportunity arose and Laney took her chance and Adam followed. Also how can you not be attracted to a bearded man who owns a dog rescue?! There were too many moments that had me smiling and feeling all giddy.
As I mentioned this was my first Jenny book and I knew going into this that this was only going to have kissing. As much as the intimacy would have been such a bonus while reading, I honestly did not miss the spice. There was just so much other stuff happening that I felt like it was not needed. I wanted to note this for those who may want to read this and are looking (or not looking) for a closed door romance.
Also Percy is the best sidekick! He cracked me up! As I mentioned above I am already looking forward to the next book which will focus on Freddie (who also was a great side character) and his assistant Ivy.
I just really loved this book and I am so glad that I was a part of the team to read this! I also loved seeing everyone's reaction in our group chat while reading. We all have shared the same sentiment and prior to me reading, their excitement towards it made me so excited to read it!
