Hello everyone and welcome back to another book recommendation video. Today I'm going to be sharing with you one of my comfort tropes ever. It's friends to lovers. I don't know, there's just something very wholesome and sweet and comforting about a friend's to lovers book. It just makes me feel so warm and happy inside and if you're looking for something very sweet, something very fast, something just very quick, thank you for watching this video. That first book I have here is The Do Over by Miss Lynn Painter. Of course I'm going to include her books in like every single book video that I do. Did make a read with me video where I read this book and I absolutely loved it. This was such a very fast and easy book to read. I finished it in a couple of hours and if you're looking for something to just get back into reading, if you're going through a reading stump right now, I think this book is going to help you because it did help me. I just love the connection between these two characters. It's low-key giving like enemies to lovers in the beginning but they ended up being like friends and she kind of like tells him things that's going on with her life right now and he's kind of just there to like listen. They kind of form this very sweet friendship and it's very interesting and I really liked it and I think you guys will enjoy too. The next book I have here is The American roommate Experiment by Alina Armas. So this book is dual point of view. It's not only friends to lovers but it is roommates and fake dating and lots and lots of tension. Guys this was so much better than the Spanish Love Disception and I love the Spanish Love Disception and you just need to read this book. So this book is about Rosie. She moves into her best friend's apartment and she didn't tell her because her apartment literally fell apart and she didn't tell her because her best friend is on her honeymoon and completely forgot that her best friend's cousin is coming to America to stay with her and so now they have to share this apartment together. So the plot of this book is about Rosie having writer's block and Lucas is just like on vacation. He's not really sure what he's doing but he's gonna help her and she wants to go on dates. Lucas decides that he's going to take her on these fake dates and help her with her novel. Pure innocence. Just going on dates. Him literally cooking for her. He is so so sweet. So with all of these fake dates they ended up just being like a very very fast close friends. You know they kind of talk about stuff. It all comes crashing down on her when she starts falling for him even more and he has to leave in like six weeks. Okay another book that I absolutely love is Before We Were Strangers by Renee Carlin. This is college romance but it's written so maturely that I actually really liked it. I really enjoyed it. A girl and a guy they met in college and their dorms are like right next to each other so they kind of see each other every day and they kind of just became each other's person. They just kind of instantly clicked and bond. They became very fast friends. They're always together. Everyone thinks they're dating because they're always doing everything together. Something tragic happens. He moves away. She moves away. They haven't talked to each other since then. It's been years. He then randomly sees her at the train station or subway and he puts out like this anonymous post. It's like a craiglist of finding people. It's the weirdest thing I've never heard of it but I thought it was like very interesting. She sees it. They rekindled and there's just a lot to unpacked over the years and they kind of talk about what happened in the past and why they left and why they got separated. This is the one I feel like every romance readers should read. Okay next book is one of my top favorite books. This is Love Another Words by Christina Lauren. This book is the childhood best friends to lovers. It is so so good. The book goes back and forth from telling the story of howling met to now. They haven't spoken to each other. She randomly sees him in a coffee shop. He wants to catch up and talk about what happened. Obviously there's still feelings there. He wants to sneak his way back into her life. I've really really liked it and I think that you will enjoy it as well. It's such a cute sweet summer read. Okay the next book I have here is one of my favorite Emily Henry books and it is People We Meet on Vacation. Basically this book is about two best friends. Again they met in college. Alex is like this very bookish, quiet nerd and Poppy is like this outgoing, very fun and friendly bubbly. She just has the best personality ever and for some reason they just click. Every year they go on a vacation together just the two of them and they've been doing that for as long as they can remember. So something happens that ruins their friendship and they haven't spoken to each other in a very long time. Obviously Poppy misses her best friend so she randomly calls him up and asks him if he wants to go on a summer vacation. From there on they kind of just tried to talk about what happened those years ago. The reason why I really really enjoyed this book because they talk about every single vacation they've been on and it's just like very interesting. So just read about different places they've been and what they've been doing and just all the fun and trouble they've gotten themselves into. This one is a must to read especially the summer and it's super fast paced and you are going to just fall in love with these characters. Next book that I have here is The Summer Broken Rules by Kale Walter. I talked about this in my last book video. You haven't read this book already, you need to go read it because it is just so so cute and if you're a huge Taylor Swift fan this is the one for you. The only calling who book I will ever talk about or ever recommend is Heartbones. Let's just ignore every single video that I've ever mentioned where I said that I liked a certain book from her. I don't. This is the only book that I will ever recommend or talk about because it's her best book. There was just no toxicity in this book. There was just no drama. It was just beautiful. The love interest in this book is probably her best guy character ever. Like everyone else is just so horrible and so toxic. This book is about Baya. She comes from a life of poverty and Samson the guy he comes from a family of wealth. They obviously have different upbringing and they see life differently. Baya decides she's going to go visit her dad for the summer. He literally left her with her mom and her mom died and he doesn't even know and she has no one. So she goes and Samson is her next door neighbor and they kind of ended up spending the summer together. They form some kind of friendship. They talk about basically their life and stuff like that and what they want to do in the future. It's so wholesome. It is so precious. Like I just love the friendship that they form within each other. It just has like this pure relationship. It means a lot to Baya because she's never really had anyone that she shares stuff like this with. It's such a special book. I truly enjoyed it and I feel like it is a very cute little summer read. The next book I have here is The Cheechy by Sarah Adams and this book was not the greatest written book but I did enjoy it because I loved the friendship in this book. Yes, it was very childish, very immature writing but if you want something very quick and sweet and cheesy, this is the book for you. This book made me so mad because I was so frustrated reading it. Two best friends, they've been friends forever and he doesn't know she has a crush on him and she doesn't know he has a crush on her. She thinks he doesn't want anything to do with her romantically obviously. They have a very amazing friendship but they both have this kind of vibe that they're not interested in each other romantically. So they are inseparable friends literally. They're always glued to each other. Everyone thinks they're dating that kind of friendship. So they have to fake date each other to help Nathan's career because he's a football player. Is he? They have to pretend to date so that he has some kind of reputation and that just drives them even more crazy because they both want each other and they're giving off the vibe that they don't. So you're probably going to be frustrated but it is so funny. I love Nathan's friends. They are hilarious. If you're into cheesy romkans, that's the one for you. Okay another series that I want to talk to you about is the addicted series, especially the first book, the first, the second and the third book. It is Lillian Lowe's point of view. They've been each other's only friend forever. Lillian Lowe, they've been through a lot and the series is basically just about them dealing with their addiction. I love how the series progresses throughout each book. Them getting help, them finding family within friends and just creating their own little family and just having their own little support system. They've been fake dating for a very long time to hide their addiction. Lillian Lowe kind of own the front syllabus trope and they're just so precious. You have to read it. Those are all of the front syllabus books that I read that I truly truly love and I really hope you guys love them as well. That's pretty much it for this video. Thank you for watching.
