Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and Emma Lord for a free copy of this TWEET CUTE in exchange for an honest review.
Five stars!
I love the title and so aptly named as it is a sweet and cute YA story! TWEET CUTE is an adorable, sweet YA romance that manages to draw you in, hold your interest, and yet captures how difficult life can be for a teenager to navigate. I work with teens and there is so much pressure coming from all sides to succeed these days - pressure from the rents, peers, and even social media. I found all of the characters to be well-rounded and the story believable. I had a hard time putting it down. That, and I had a hankering for grilled cheese. Go figure. LOL. Highly recommend.

I truly loved reading this book, and thought Pepper and Jack were really well developed characters. Their family dynamics seemed quite realistic to me (despite my non-involvement in any family business or twitter wars!) and they seemed really true to their age - sometimes you read a YA and they're never at school, or out doing things an 18 year old would never realisically do so I did really appreciate that they had swim meets, and college applications hanging over them in the background. And actually, those two somewhat mundane aspects of school life actually added to the story and didn't hinder it.
I loved the idea of Weazel and Jack's rationale behind the creation of it. It fit in to the story really well and allowed both characters to share aspects of themselves that you just wouldn't blurt out to someone during class. Near the end and the 'Ronnie' moment, I did worry that the twist would be some sort of Hollyoaks style 'whoops you fancy your secret brother' - so THANK GOD that didn't happen!
Overall, I would recommend this one to anyone looking for a modern version of You've Got Mail - just replace the terrible dial-up with an anomynous app and bingo, That's Tweet Cute!

Super cute book. I loved the Rome & Juliet vibe to it and the main characters were adorable. I didn't fully understand the relationships between Jack and his twin brother and also Pepper and her mother/her mother and her sister, but loved how it all wrapped up in the end.

I enjoyed the cute plot line and young adult attributes of Tweet Cute. As someone who doesn’t often pick up YA this book convinced me to start venturing into the genre more and more. Detailed review to follow...

This was so freaking cute! Pepper and Jack were seriously adorable together and their little love story was so sweet. I really liked how they worked things out. They are seriously relationship goals. For this being the author’s debut book, it was perfect. I can’t wait to read more books by her.

Oh my goodness it’s cute. I had wishlisted this book and they gave it to me. This isn’t my typical genre but the title caught my attention. I loved it. Can a book be adorable? Cause this one is adorable.

Meet Pepper, swim team captain, chronic overachiever, and all-around perfectionist. Her family may be falling apart, but their massive fast-food chain is booming — mainly thanks to Pepper, who is barely managing to juggle real life while secretly running Big League Burger’s massive Twitter account.
Enter Jack, class clown and constant thorn in Pepper’s side. When he isn’t trying to duck out of his obscenely popular twin’s shadow, he’s busy working in his family’s deli. His relationship with the business that holds his future might be love/hate, but when Big League Burger steals his grandma’s iconic grilled cheese recipe, he’ll do whatever it takes to take them down, one tweet at a time.
All’s fair in love and cheese — that is, until Pepper and Jack’s spat turns into a viral Twitter war.
Such a sweet little read! Witty, funny and heart warming. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I’m sucker for a sweet rom com and this did not disappoint. Perfect for young adults who are finding the relationship and expectations with their parents challenging (younger Laura can relate). It has the awkwardness of young relationships, mixed with the challenges of school. The perfect YA novel!

This book is aptly named -- it's so cute! As somebody who works in social media, I thought the Twitter aspect of this book would turn me off a bit, but it did quite the opposite! Not only is "Tweet Cute" an adorable YA romance, it also captures how difficult it is to be a teenager in 2019 -- the pressure from your parents, social media and your peers to perform in a certain way -- and how taxing the internet can be.

I adored this book and all its pop-culture references. Tweet Cute is a charming read with tonnes of witty moments and a little romance. I loved the dual perspectives and found it to be easy to read, well paced with tonnes of unexpected moments.
I liked that while the main plot of this book is about a Twitter war, it showcases that there are real people behind company accounts and it gives that important message to teens reading the book.
I would have loved to have a little more romance in this but it’s definitely a slow burn, rom-com. All of the characters were likeable and I enjoyed the side characters as well.
I’m off to eat a grilled cheese.

Such a CUTE story and a lot of fun! I haven't breezed through a book this quickly in a while.
This is a book about love in the age of social media.
Pepper and Jack go to the same school which – and all teenagers will know this – does not mean they are friends. What they don’t know is that they are twitter enemies involved in an online war, each in the name of their family business. They also don’t know that, at the same time, they are falling for each other on an anonymous chat app.
Emma Lord did a great job writing fun dialogues, filled with online and offline banter. And seeing the relationship between Pepper and Jack develop was very enjoyable.
The thing I didn’t enjoy so much was, ironically, the twitter war. At first it was interesting but after a while it just started to feel old. And so I’m glad that the wars stopped just before I began to feel seriously annoyed. So, good save, Ms. Lord. If you consider reading this book, you should also know that it is aimed at teenagers. There is lot of teen lingo and abbreviations most of which I understood but not all, to be honest. It did make me feel old sometimes, haha. So, this is just a heads up. But if you don’t mind social media and teenage slang, you might just love this book.
All in all, it was fun read that I just breezed through in no time at all.
Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for a free ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Tweet Cute has everything I like in my YA Contemporaries. There is a cute romance where I like the characters as individuals too. The teens talk like teens and use modern slang. Plus, there is some family drama and dynamics which are explored with both families. I loved the how Twitter and meme culture were at the core of this novel and it is just done SO WELL.
This book was so much fun and I devoured it in two sittings.

Thanks to NetGalley and to the publisher for sending me an e-galley of this book in exchange for an honest review!
Tweet Cute is pretty much You've Got Mail, but with a social media twist.
Pepper is a senior, captain of the swim team and she has her sights laser focused on getting into Columbia. She still feels like an outsider at her prestigious private school and feels she has to fight tooth and nail against the other students to hang onto her ivy league dreams. She was dropped into the deep end after her parent's business "Big League Burger" exploded onto the scene and now her mom is heading up the corporate office in New York, a long way from Pepper's Nashville roots. Along with balancing school and extracurricular activities her mom has tasked her with helping on the Big League Burger twitter account, offering advice to their social media manager who is in over her head.
Jack is always contending with his twin, Ethan who he has deemed the golden twin. He's popular and can sweet talk anyone while wearing a face strikingly similar to Jacks, so similar that many of his classmates mistake him for Ethan and he gets to see the visible disappointment on their faces when they realize it's just Jack. Their parents own a small deli called Girl Cheesing that has been in the family for generations which Jack and after Big League Burger comes out with a new grilled cheese sandwich that looks a lot like their "Grandma's Special", Jack takes to social media with a snarky vengeance.
The two spark up a twitter war that quickly goes viral all the while communicating anonymously on Weazel, an app that Jack created. As their handles Wolf and Bluebird grow closer, the twitter battle is getting increasingly personal.
Tweet Cute is written in such a fresh and lively way that in undeniably young without feeling forced or like an older author using "teen speak". It perfectly encapsulates the playful banter of two online pen pals as they grow closer, using the anonymity of the internet to lower their defenses and talk plainly about the struggles of being a senior and living up to their family's expectations. It also has to be one of the sweetest and purest things I have ever read.
If you like cute and fluffy rom-coms and you spend any of your time on twitter. You'd LOVE this book. It's a must own for me.

Oh my gosh I am absolutely in love and in awe with this book. It was so well done and I just had the most amazing time! I loved the characters, and how the internet was incorporated into the story that didn't make it cringey. The romance was slow-burn and marvellous. I cannot even with this book!

I absolutely devoured this book! It was delightful and light, and incredibly engaged. I was rooting for both Pepper and Jack (and PepperJack!) the whole time and felt both characters were compelling, realistic and enjoyable to read about! I will definitely be rereading this book as soon as I stop smiling.

Thank you to Netgalley/St. Martin’s Press for fulfilling my wish!!
Well dang. That was absolutely adorable. Nothing makes me happier than the trope “enemies to lovers”. It was everything I wanted in a book: mysterious pen pals, baking, amazing families and misunderstandings.
I would 100% recommend this book to anyone looking for a cute, fluffy read.

If you're looking for a cute, fun, easy read endearing book, Tweet Cute is for you. This book is just fun, silly, somewhat cheesy, but will leave you feeing happy.
Thank you to netgalley for the arc in exchange for an honest review.

The expectation for this 2020 release is too high and did I like it? We'll see.
Tweet Cute promises a feel-good swoon read revolving on a modern storyline with our main characters Pepper Evans, daughter of Big League Burger owners, and Jack Campbell, son of New York small-time deli place Girl Chessing, battling for their own company's right on a grilled cheese recipe via Twitter.
The premise is too interesting I gladly pressed the request button on NetGalley and was too excited to read the ARC when I got one from NBS and guess what, I am living for swoon reads like these.
Tweet Cute is a young adult novel that risked it all by riding on the wave of modern trends (which is too risky knowing how fast trending topics changed today) but delivered it all with flying colors because the writing style fitted the meet-cute story with an extra scoop of the never-failing enemies to lovers trope.
Aside from the fact that the Twitter war between BLB and Girl Chessing is very relatable because it is modern, I love the fact that Tweet Cute focused on family struggles with two different perspectives and views in the places of the Evans and the Campbells. It showed that importance of communication and honesty especially with your own family since they are the one we should be holding on to tightly because they are the constant shoulder we can always rely on anytime.
This book also highlighted facts about academe competition in the light of our overachiever MC Pepper against another Stone Hall competitor, Pooja. I love the fact that the Emma Lord delivered a clever conclusion to their age-old curricular feud because the thing that should be stopped in our education system is pitting each student against each other. And that's talking from own experiences.
Another thing that should be highly considered from picking this book is the overflowing romance (and I can definitely say that this book is CHEESY. ) Jack and Pepper and how they started as Stone Hall strangers to Twitter enemies to post-Twitter war friends to real-life couple; thanks to Hub Seed and YouTube Jasmine Yang and to lot of Iowan teens who shipped Jactricia in the first place. You'll definitely find yourself grinning time to time and craving for a cheese burger or grilled cheese or for Pepper's renowned Monster Cake and So Sorry Blondies. By the way, I need to run and get some goodies because I am hungry finishing this gem so ciao.
RATING: 4.5stars

This is a fun take on a teenage rom-com. It has everything from Twitter fights, secret crushes, a class clown, and an overachiever. As Pepper and Jack fight it out on Twitter, their lives become more entwined than they realize. Pepper is stressed about getting into college but is bogged down with her family business’s Twitter account. Jack, the class clown, just wants to create apps instead of running the family deli. Their two worlds collide in more ways than Twitter. 4🌟🌟🌟🌟

Pepper and Jack both go to Stone Hall academy and can’t be more different. Pepper is hyper focused, Jack is laid back. Pepper has a fear of leaving her block, Jack treats the whole city of New York as his back yard. Yet when their family businesses start up a Twitter war an unlikely friendship ensues. But will Jack breaks Peppers trust when another secret emerges....

I thought this book was super cute and fun. It was quick paced and easy to read. I connected to both the main characters instantly and was rooting for both. The banter not just between the main characters but also between both families felt real and genuine. Filled with shenanigans and laugh out moments this is definitely a book I would recommend. #teampepperjack Sad that it is not released until January 2020

I'm all puppy-eyed glittery fluff over this book which was so adorable and cutesy, even with all it's heartwrenching glory. I don't remember the last time I was this pumped up for my ship to sail, as I was for PepperJack.
Tweet Cute does every bit justice to it's name. Pepper manages her Mom's corporate Twitter account for Big League Burger, an international burger franchise that grew way too fast. Jack on the other hand, occasionally tweets for the small-town deli called Girl Cheesing that his family runs. His twin brother Ethan joins him sometimes when he isn't busy being the popular kid at school.
Jack and Pepper go to the same school, Stone Hall Academy. And both of them are on the anonymous messaging platform called Weazel, texting under aliases, and finding solace with an unknown person over the internet. But when a recipe-copying allegation on twitter turns into an overnight battle, both of them decide to keep at it without making it personal. But things aren't as easy as it seems as the drama goes way put of hand and beyond anything they hoped for.
I didn't look forward to loving this as much as I did. Infact, the first few pages were so thick with typical American-school-kid puns that went right over my head, that I thought this book had nothing new to offer at all. But it DOES. It utilizes all the perks and downsides of the technology and social media craze the Gen Z is blessed with to make its own twisted version of a twitter drama that seems all too true to be fictitious. The character development though, Jack and Pepper felt as close to heart as myself. They were so relatable in many aspects, had very distinct narrative voice, and fully-fledged personalities that it was hard for me to admit they aren't real after all. I loved the family drama and the sibling/twin things in this book. But most of all, the recipes. Gah, I'm still willing to reduce a star rating for not providing me at least a link to a recipe for the deliciousness that is Monster Cake. Aside from that, there was this slight little part of Pepper's story that I thought needed a bit more exploring. But either way, I'm still very glad to have read this book and have no qualms in recommending it.
Grow your tbrs a bit by adding this book along and make sure you pick it up any day you feel gloomy. Thank me later.
