It Only Happens in the Movies

by Holly Bourne

witty self-aware romantic realistic critical deconstruction of tropes cynical protagonist fake dating coming of age challenging expectations

It Only Happens in the Movies throws you right into Audrey's head, and it's a wonderfully cynical place to be. She's had enough of Hollywood's saccharine, unrealistic depictions of love, especially after her own family drama. So, when she meets Harry, who seems ripped straight from a rom-com script with his charming awkwardness and grand gestures, Audrey is naturally suspicious. This book isn't just a romance; it's a smart, funny examination of all those tropes we love to hate, and hate to love. You'll find yourself laughing at Audrey's sharp observations and rooting for her to figure out what real connection looks like, messy bits and all. It's for readers who appreciate a protagonist who thinks critically about the world around her, and who want a love story that feels genuine and earned, even if it doesn't always look like the big screen.
