Really enjoyable summer beach read! I will admit I struggled at first, felt it took some getting into and found the character a little hard to relate to. Once it gets going, you start to see the character's charm and I love her relationship with her grandma! Good to see the character starting to explore her talents and finding herself again. I enjoyed the story once I got into it and very much the type of book you can enjoy with a pina colada on a beach somewhere (or it makes you wish that's where you are)
Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read this book.

Not My Greek Wedding by Sue Roberts is the perfect way to kick off your summer reading list. Be whisked away to sunny Santorini with this delightful romcom, the perfect addition to your beach bag.

Mia is an aspiring influencer and has the opportunity to attend a friend's wedding in gorgeous Santorini. Meeting acquaintances old and new, Mia is thrilled with the possibilities to add new content for her loyal followers. But will the attentions of a handsome local begin to outweigh the draw of the influencer life?

This is a sun-drenched, breezy read that charmed me from beginning to end. If you have previously enjoyed the writing of Sue Roberts, her latest will surely not disappoint.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for an ARC.

I enjoyed how descriptive this book was with the summer feel and the gorgeous setting it took place in. However, I found Mia, the main character, was shallow and too focused on her social media image and money. The repetitive topic of how much free stuff she is sent from her videos or how many followers she had was very off-putting making me unable to relate to her. I had high hopes for this book as a cute summer read however, I found it hard to overcome the immaturity and selfishness of Mia.

Lovely story. Just I found it tended to repeat words and phrases quite a bit within the same paragraphs. Whilst this isn’t terrible, as I’m writing my own book my Aunt helped me edit some of it before she passed away, and she would always say it was a writing faux pas to not use synonyms wherever possible so as to not seem to be repetitive. For instance, instead of repeating the phrase “friends and family” so shortly after it was previously said the term “loved ones” could be used instead. I would have liked a bit more descriptive imagery about the Greek landscape and the food. But otherwise quite cozy lovely and found the characters to be rather affable. Her Gran reminded me a lot of my own, who is sorely missed. All in all quite a sweet tale.

The main character was just so difficult to relate to or like. Just so very immature and the dialogue and inner dialogue was hard to enjoy. Despite the beautiful setting this one wasn't for me.
