review: happily ever afters

i love stories about writers. 

and cheeky rom-com vibes 

they make my heart happy

and "happily ever afters" by elsie bryant is at the top of my list! 


We follow Tessa, who recently moved to a new area

and just starting a new prestigious school for the arts 

where she spends her time writing stories

and looking after her brother while her parents are working. 

Tessa's across the street neighbor, Sam, also goes to the fancy art school

but for culinary arts...

much to the teasing of the childhood classmates who have been there for a while now. 

Tessa is nervous when she starts out. luckily, an issue with her monthly friend provides her with a new best friend 


as the story progresses, her writing does not. 

with the help of her childhood best friend, they realize that Tessa's writing is at a stand-still because her life is. 

Write what you know, after all. 

so in order to continue with her romance story, she needs to experience a romance. 

in walks Nico. the IRL character from her story who is also in her writing classes. 

little does she know, the romance she's been looking for has been in her sights the whole time 


super cute YA love story! 

i love when the writing of a story is just real. 

nerdy references and delicious snacks ; what could be better? 

predictable in the sense of it's a love story. 

and i mean, its called "happily ever afters" 

but you still want to binge it in one sitting


... which i did :) 

5/5 stars !
