2019 book 130

Allie Larkin's Why Can't I Be You
I needed something fluffy after reading a creepy book by Shirley Jackson, and Christina recommended this to me. It totally fit the bill! It's the story of a woman who's heading to a conference--and then her boyfriend dumps her at the airport. So when the organizer of a high school reunion at the conference hotel mistakes her for an old classmate, she just kind of goes with it. If you can get past this fairly ridiculous premise, the book is super cute. It's got a 90s romcom vibe for sure. That also gets at its slight cheesiness and how things work out at the end. Still, I'd watch that movie! B/B+.
