Bea Schumacher, una bloguera de moda de talla grande con una legión de seguidores, ve cada semana el famoso reality Buen partido. Harta de la falta de diversidad en el programa y con el corazón roto, una noche de borrachera lo critica en directo… y se hace viral. Entonces recibe la noticia: la productora quiere que sea la siguiente estrella de Buen partido. Y aunque las citas fantásticas y las pedidas de mano no entran en sus planes, Bea acaba aceptando para luchar contra el estándar de belleza y, por qué no, tener algún que otro viaje gratis. Pero las cosas acaban complicándose con guerras en Internet, pretendientes guapos y sentimientos que florecen.

    La comedia romántica del año. Un fenómeno mundial de TikTok. Un verano. Dos rivales. Un giro de guion que no vieron venir. Nora Stephens se ha pasado la vida entre libros; es una dura agente literaria que pelea por las obras y los contratos de cada uno de sus clientes. Solo hay una cosa que esté por encima de su trabajo: su hermana pequeña Libby, a la que lleva cuidando desde que su madre falleció. Por eso decide acceder a su petición e ir con ella a Sunshine Falls, el lugar en el que se ambienta su libro favorito. Allí, Libby pretende realizar un viaje de transformación en el que recrear las escenas de sus novelas favoritas hasta lograr que Nora sea la protagonista de su propia novela. Con lo que ninguna de las dos cuenta es con toparse con Charlie Lastra, un editor con el que Nora ya había tenido un encontronazo en Nueva York y que amenaza con convertirse en una presencia constante en sus vacaciones. A veces, ni siquiera una agente literaria y un editor son capaces de escribir su propia historia.

    Others: Positive

    Angst, mystery, and suspense collide in this bestselling breakout romance novel from Kandi Steiner... I remember the lights. I remember I wanted to photograph them, the way the red and blue splashed across his cold, emotionless face. But I knew even if my feet could move from the place where they had cemented themselves to the ground and I could run for my camera, I wouldn’t be able to capture that moment. I had trusted him, I had loved him, and even though my body had changed that summer, he’d made sure to help me hold on to who I was inside, regardless of how the exterior altered. But then everything changed. He stole my innocence. He scarred my heart. He took everything I thought I knew about my life and fast-pitched it out the window, shattering the glass that held my world together in the process. I remember the lights. The passionate, desperate, hot strikes of red. The harsh, cruel, icy bolts of blue. They symbolized everything I endured that summer. And everything I would never face again.

    Some people change your life Others change your heart Newly widowed dad Sebastian Dorner was unraveling at the edges—until his son’s teacher, Via DeRosa, threw him a lifeline. Now, two years later, they reconnect at Matty’s new school, and an inconvenient but unmistakable jolt of attraction crackles between them. But why does the first person to spark with Sebastian in years have to be a millennial? Is twentysomething Via really too young for him or does fortysomething Sebastian just feel too damn old? A former foster kid, Via’s finally forged the stable life she’s always dreamed of—new job, steady income, no drama. The last thing she needs are rumors about her and a single dad at school. But why does she keep being drawn into his capable, worn-flannel orbit? And why does being around Sebastian, Matty and even their dog, Crabby, seem to spark so much want? They’re trying to ignore the tension threatening their friendship. But sometimes what’ll heal you is just a touch—and a heartbeat—away…

    Others: Overwhelmingly positive

    As his plane lands at a European airport, thirty-seven-year-old Toru Watanabe casually hears an old Beatles song. Suddenly, the music transports him back to his youth, to the turbulent Tokyo of the late sixties. He then remembers, with melancholy and unease, the unstable and mysterious Naoko, the girlfriend of his best—and only—friend from adolescence, Kizuki, and how Kizuki's suicide distanced them for a year until they reunited at university. There, they began an intimate relationship, which was soon cut short by Naoko’s fragile mental health, leading to her admission to a rest center. Shortly afterward, Watanabe fell in love with Midori, a lively and determined young woman. Indecisive and plagued by fears, Watanabe experienced only bewilderment and disillusionment in the very areas where everything was supposed to make sense: sex, love, and death. The unbearable situation led him to seek a delicate balance between his hopes and the need to find his place in the world. Mientras su avión aterriza en un aeropuerto europeo, Toru Watanabe, de treinta y siete años, escucha casualmente una vieja canción de los Beatles: de pronto, la música le hace retroceder a su juventud, al turbulento Tokio de finales de los sesenta. Recuerda entonces, con melancolía y desasosiego, a la inestable y misteriosa Naoko, la novia de su mejor -y único- amigo de la adolescencia, Kizuki, y cómo el suicidio de éste les distanció durante un año, hasta que se reencontraron en la universidad. Iniciaron allí una relación íntima, truncada, sin embargo, por la frágil salud mental de Naoko, a quien hubo que internar en un centro de reposo. Al poco, Watanabe se enamoró de Midori, una joven activa y resuelta. Indeciso, acosado por los temores, Watanabe sólo experimentaba el deslumbramiento y el desengaño allá donde todo debía cobrar sentido: el sexo, el amor y la muerte. La insostenible situación le llevó entonces a intentar alcanzar el delicado equilibrio entre sus esperanzas y la necesidad de encontrar su lugar en el mundo.

    Others: Overwhelmingly positive

    A woman struggling with burnout learns to embrace the unexpected—and the man she enlists to help her—in this new New York Times bestselling romance by Helen Hoang. When violinist Anna Sun accidentally achieves career success with a viral YouTube video, she finds herself incapacitated and burned out from her attempts to replicate that moment. And when her longtime boyfriend announces he wants an open relationship before making a final commitment, a hurt and angry Anna decides that if he wants an open relationship, then she does, too. Translation: She’s going to embark on a string of one-night stands. The more unacceptable the men, the better. That’s where tattooed, motorcycle-riding Quan Diep comes in. Their first attempt at a one-night stand fails, as does their second, and their third, because being with Quan is more than sex—he accepts Anna on an unconditional level that she herself has just started to understand. However, when tragedy strikes Anna’s family she takes on a role that she is ill-suited for, until the burden of expectations threatens to destroy her. Anna and Quan have to fight for their chance at love, but to do that, they also have to fight for themselves.

Loved it

I loved getting all the behind the scenes details about the filming of the show but then we also get to see audience reactions what they were thinking of the show and then just seeing the main character's relationships with these contestants either develop or crash and burn it all just felt highly realistic
