This is the second in a series, I read the first a couple years ago and you probably don’t have to read the first to enjoy this one, but they’re such fun and fast reads I would just read both. It’s told via emails and texts making it really easy to get sucked into this one, it goes by really fast and the drama that Gen and Ava have in their lives is addictive!While I’m AHEM quite a bit older than the characters I could relate to aspects of their angst, although thankfully I didn’t have to deal w...
ARC provided via NetGalley, but I swear these thoughts are Mine, whole Mine and nothing but Mine. I would officially like to apologise to Gen.I was a little bit harsh on her after the first book.But, yes, she's grown and I actually found her character interesting and funny.Problematic, but funny.Storywise, I wasn't as impressed as I was with the first book.Maybe I just didn't expect for it to jump from girls' freshmen year at college to their after-graduation life. I signed up for a fun conte
This book was not for me. I found the story boring and it had explicit content that I didn't like. DNF
"1) You can buy sunblock that smells really good. Coconut or mango. I think if it smells good you will want to eat it and then when you realize you can’t eat it you will still want it on your body."I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. My thoughts and opinions are my own. Any quotes I use are from an unpublished copy and may not reflect the finished product.Please Send Help made me smile and was a super quick read. I really enjoyed the banter between Ava and Gen, and...
this was nice
Thank you to St. Martin's Press and Netgalley for a free copy of this ebook in exchange for an honest review.2.5 stars rounded up to three.Apparently, this book is a sequel. However, I did not know that. I do not think it hinders the reading of this book because of the starting place. What I liked: I love books about friendships. I love when there are relationships with others, but it does not override the friendship factor of the book.What I did not like: The pettiness of the girls. For girls w...
This book was enjoyable and I know these two characters exist but I didn't want them to exisit. Let me explain. One is selfish and cares about focusing a lot on her problems while having her friend pick up the pieces and devote a lot of attention on her. The other says the wrong things at the wrong time and often chooses not to share their problems with the other one. It's tough. It's annoying. But it's real. So how am I supposed to demote stars to a book is very similar to what happen to me? Th...
This one didn't do it for me like the first book in the series did. I think perhaps because the obsessive emailing/texting just made more sense to me as something that college freshmen would do, and seemed like realistic for college grads working their first jobs? It was a pick read though, and I might still pick up the sequel.
First things first: When I requested this book from NetGalley, I had no idea it was a sequel. Despite my qualms, I decided to read it anyway, and I"m glad I did. While it might have been nice to have read the first book, not having read it didn't detract from my enjoyment of this cute, quirky, quick read. (More on this later...)Please Send Help is written entirely in texts and emails between two best friends, Ava and Gen. Recent college grads, both are now facing grown-up life as they pursue the...
"I’m clearly flourishing in my isolation. Florida is my new natural habitat. Humidity is cleansing! The constant threat of a gator attack is thrilling! Our governor is probably only homophobic as a bit! (That last one is probably too optimistic.)" Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the ebook ARC of this novel for review purposes.PLEASE SEND HELP is a charming and raw sequel to Gaby Dunn and Allison Raskin's I HATE EVERYONE BUT YOU. It follows Ava and Gen as they enter the world of
I didn't realize this book was a sequel before requesting it, but after reading other reviews, I learned that I didn't need to read the original I decided to give this story a try anyway. However, I quickly learned that I am not the intended target audience, and overall, the story just wasn't working for me. A majority of the book is told in the format of texts and emails exchanges to chronicle a slice of life between two best friends just out in their first post-college jobs which I personally
If I was just rating based on pure entertainment and how often I laughed, then this book would be 5/5 stars. However, I don't love it entirely when I take into account the characters and their actions at times. Not a big deal for me, but I can see someone reading this book (series) and really disliking how the authors decided to write conflict.
In the second installment of this series, I continue to be impressed by how Gaby Dunn and Allison Raskin manage to tackle some pretty serious, important content while still producing hilariously funny, lighthearted books. I was initially made aware of these books after listening to Gaby give an interview on the Glowing Up podcast, immediately thinking, where can I find more from this fantastic woman? That led me to the Just Between Us podcast, hosted by Dunn with Raskin, who co-authors this seri...
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an e-copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This was just the book I needed after a string of books that didn't hold my interest. I read the first book, 'I Hate Everyone But You', I enjoyed this one more. It was a quick read both because of the format (emails and text conversations) and because I liked reading about Ava and Gen.I liked reading what each of them was up to post-college. The book tackles some heavy topics in a some...
Advanced reading copy supplied from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for a fair review.I. Hate. This. Book. Abominations like this are why boomers will never like us.It really was like going through the phones of those two girls in your class who thought they were absolutely hilarious and quirky, who don't realise that no one but them are laughing at their jokes. It was almost painful how relatable and down to earth to my demographic this book tried to be, while completely missing the mar...
Note: I was provided with a digital ARC of this book thanks to NetGalley, all opinions are my own. I adored this!! I read the first book, I Hate Everyone But You, last year and really liked it. The format of these books is extremely fast paced since they are told through text and emails and that's part of why I adore them so much. This book is my favorite of the two. I don't completely remember everything from the first but I remember being annoyed with how some scenes played out and some o

I was provided an ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.Please Send Help is the sequel to I Hate Everyone But You. Like the latter, it is told through written communication such as emails and texts. It tells the story of two best friends, Gen and Ava who just finished Uni and moved for job opportunities, one to Florida, the other to New-York. We get to see what they discuss and only that.To be honest, I didn't remember I Hate Everyone But You all that well, but I didn't really mind....
Thanks to NetGalley and Wednesday Books for providing and eARC in exchange for an honest review.A few months ago I read I Hate Everyone But You and what a nice surprise that book was. Please Send Help picks up a few years after the end of the first book, when Ava and Gen have just graduated from college and are ready to start their first job. Told also through texts and emails this keeps being as fresh and funny as the first book. Their conversations are filled with pop culture references and so...
