This is not the typical book I read (I love thrillers) but I’m glad I requested this book! A light read with interesting characters that entertain you.

A thoroughly enjoyable book about new friendships, espionage and finding love. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it

I always know when I read a Camille Pagan book that I will meet some very interesting characters. This was no exception. A fun and lighthearted book with wonderful characters and a fun trip to Paris. Thanks to Netgalley and the Publisher for the ARC

When Annie's fiancee up and goes to France and she loses her job , she decides to take a break from people. Only planning to talk to people she already knows, things don't go as planned for Annie! Annie lives with her mom and they get a new neighbor Harper. Harper wants to be Annie's friend. Annie also meets Mo, a private investigator who has a subject in the neighborhood he is keeping an eye on. This was a wonderful heartwarming story about friendship, family, and finding ones true happiness. I loved the characters in the book and felt like I could live on Annie's street and be friends with her and Harper. I received an advanced readers copy and all opinions are my own.

Camille Pagan's books do not disappoint! I love Pagan's writing style. Annie and Jon are engaged, but Jon decides to go to Paris unexpectedly. Annie has a work situation that is causing her issues. How will Annie handle her fiance's absence during this time? Will she stick to her vow of not meeting new people? This was a very enjoyable read!

Camille Pagan never fails to draw me in from the first pages engage me with her characters and keep me turning the pages.Love how her new novel was told through email journal notes .Its fun to be entertained taken out of everyday life a new adventure.I recommend all the authors books for fun enjoyment great characters.#netgalley#lakeunion

Camille Pagan's books are always a fun read, and THIS WON'T END WELL is no exception. Told through the journal entries of protagonist Annie, we follow her journey to self-discovery. I appreciated the themes of introspection while journeying outside one's comfort zone, and I thought telling the story through journal entries helped enhance that theme even moreso than a typical novel structure. Looking forward to Camille's next book already!

A fun, lovable, and enjoyable novel! The characters are charming and quirky, and the story is interesting with an easy flow as the main character has to reinvent herself when faced with unexpected changes. I recommend this book! Thank you to the Tall Poppies and NetGalley for the early reader copy. all opinions are my own.

Things aren't going so well for Annier Mercer. Her fiancé suddenly left for Paris to "find himself" and she just quit her job after being wrongfully accused of sexual harassment. So it's time for her to take a break from everyone, especially new people. But when Harper moves in next door, Annie can't help but keep eye on her; especially after seeing Harper with a black eye and finding private investigator Mo, lurking outside her house. This won't end well, will it?

This was a fun read that gave me Class Mom vibes! It's written in a series of emails, journal entries, and narrative. The emails were my favorite - so much sarcasm and wit - I definitely read them with a smile on my face. She also makes a dig at MLM businesses which made me cringe at first but I thought she did a good job at presenting both sides. I think the book started off strong and then slowed down but picked up towards the end. Overall still very enjoyable.

This was the first book I've read from this author and it was just okay. It was hard for me to get into and the characters didn't keep my attention.

I have read one other book by Camille and was delighted with it, so I was eager to dive into this one. I enjoyed the alternating between emails, diaries and real life point of view, and really getting into Annie's headspace. This was a solid, interesting ride through Annie's job, family, relationships and just socialization that I found fascinating and hard to put down. Great, quick, enjoyable ready and thankful for the ARC!

Camille Pagan has done it once again. I have loved every book of hers that I have read so far and this one just might be my favourite next to Forever Is The Worst Long Time. The characters in This Won't End Well are so endearing, especially Annie, Harper and Mo. I read this book super quickly, and felt so satisfied with the ending, yet disappointed that it was over. I very rarely give a book 5 stars on Goodreads, but this one was a definite 5 stars for me. I will absolutely recommend this gem of a novel to friends and family.

This was such a fun and quirky read from start to finish! I read this on the plane, and it was a great plane read that kept me entertained for hours without being too emotionally draining.

When Annie's fiance unexpectedly moves to France without a warning and she loses her job, Annie decides to shut herself off from the road. After all, you can't be hurt or disappointed by people if you don't spend time with them, right? But after meeting a mysterious new neighbor, Annie slowly starts to reevaluate her priorities and herself.

Oh, this was a hoot! Annie was quirky to a fault, and in many ways reminded me of Nina Hill from The Bookish Life of Nina Hill by Abbie Waxman. This was another book with a strong female protagonist and an entertaining cast of supporting characters. I did not agree with or understand all of Annie's decisions, but I greatly enjoyed her character growth and development. I loved all of the comedic relief sprinkled throughout the novel (those listserve emails were my favorite).

Thank you to Netgalley and Sourcebooks for this book in exchange for an honest review!

Pagan’s writing is relatable, funny and whip-smart. Her 2019 book I’m Fine and Neither Are You is one of my favorites of the past year. I was super excited to read This Won't End Well and couldn't wait to dive in when it arrived.

This book made me laugh out loud and I just find Pagan’s writing to be so approachable and enjoyable to read. I especially loved the parts about the friend that is involved in multi-level marketing and it was just so spot on!

Although I wasn't sure at first if the writing style would be hard to follow as it is written in alternating chapters of email exchanges, text messages, and diary entries as that isn't my preferred style of narration. It ended up totally working and was part of the quirky charm of this storyline. Pagan is skilled at building multifaceted and memorable characters and I highly recommend this one.

I always get very excited when a new novel by Camille Pagán comes out and for good reason. Her characters are delightfully quirky and highly realistic, and though Pagan writes about serious situations, she does so with a hefty dose of humor. “This Won’t End Well,” Pagan’s latest novel, is all that and more.

The novel’s protagonist is Annie, a dedicated scientist, who likes both structure and the ability to plan ahead. Change is not a good thing for Annie so when her carefully planned life suddenly goes askew, routine becomes more important than ever. Her fiancé, Jon, decides he wants to go to France, but does not want any contact with Annie during the time that he is there. Annie also recently lost her scientist job because of sexual harassment from her boss. Her relationship with her closest friend, Leesa, is estranged and her mother, whom she lives with, suffers from depression and hoarding issues. Fearing any more catastrophes, Annie decides to cut herself off from the world period. People bring about change and change is not what Annie wants.

So must for best laid plans! As Annie takes on a job cleaning houses to generate income, she becomes obsessed with her new neighbor, Harper, and Mo, the private investigator who Annie believes has been hired to spy on Harper. Both Harper and Mo become allies in Annie’s journey to discover that change in itself may not be a bad thing when you have friends along for the ride.

This novel is written in alternating chapters of emails, text messages and diary entries. Sprinkled with plenty of laugh aloud moments (flying dog poo, anyone?), Ms. Pagán writes at a lively pace as she weaves through Annie’s interconnected stories. Just when a reader thinks she might know what could happen next, she is pleasantly surprised to discover that she is mistaken. Annie is very likable as are the majority of the other characters (though I did think her fiancé was a bit of an idiot). For any fan of a well-written story that resonates with the reader long after you finish the final page, I highly recommend this book.

I'd like to thank NetGalley and the author for providing me an advanced copy.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!

This was a cute and quick read! I really liked the writing style and can tell I will probably like some of Camille Pagan's other books.

Unfortunately, I didn't love the central love story here... I didn't really feel the chemistry and didn't understand the abrupt choice Annie makes in the end.

Annie Mercer is a supremely relatable character. She thought she knew where she was going, but life threw her a few curveballs - she can’t go back to the job she loves, her best friend has changed into someone Annie no longer knows, and her fiancé has gone off to Paris to find himself. I enjoyed tagging along on Annie’s journey from what she planned to be to who she wants to be.

I flew through this book in a few days and liked this unique format of storytelling. This Won’t End Well is yet another charming addition to Camille Pagan’s growing body of work.

Annie has lost her job and her fiancé left the country unexpectedly for a month hiatus in Paris.
While Annie tries to give her fiancé the space he needs she finds that life sometimes unfolds in surprising ways.
Pagan has you diving deeper in your own life looking at it from different perspectives.

I love how Camille Pagan always has fun, light books. Her books are a joy because they aren't entirely meaty. There's no huge plot twist, no big drama, it's just getting to know a character and following that character through their day-to-day, which at times does have drama (but relatable!), which does have humor, and which is entirely satisfying. If you're someone who needs a big plot, this will not be for you; but if you just want to simply enjoy a book by the fire that you don't have to think too much about, this is a great pick!

Camille Pagán is a HUGELY TALENTED writer and she never disappoints. Her fresh, unique, and funny style is as close to perfection as can be—she makes it look like writing is really no big deal at all. And again, she creates a set of well-drawn characters you want to hold in a tight embrace. A marvelous, smart, and quick read.
Thanks for the opportunity to read the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
