This was the cute, sweet, rom-com I needed in my life right now. Funny and relatable, I appreciate that this book skips over all the recycled romance tropes in favor of telling an honest story about life and how beautifully imperfect it is. This was my first experience reading a book by Kate Clayborn, and after reading this, I'm definitely checking out her others! So cute!

I rate this book a 4/5 stars, and thank NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my feedback. I will post my review to Amazon upon publication.

I keep telling myself that I can't love Kate Clayborn's new book as much as her previous ones, and yet I continue to be wrong. And I'm not mad about it, at all!

Georgie has been living in LA working as a personal assistant for various celebrities/ influencers/ etc. She let herself get totally immersed in other people's lives to the point where she has stopped analyzing what she really wants. When her job ends, her BFF, Bel, convinces Georgie to return to their hometown to figure out her next steps..

While at her parents' house she discovers a journal aka friendfic she wrote in 8th grade, which includes a list of to-do's before starting high school. She uses that as a starting point to figure out what to do next. What she didn't plan on was Levi Fanning walking in and becoming her unexpected housemate. Sadly, there was more than one bed.

The grumpy/ sunshine trope was in full force here, and it was delightful. Hank the dog was adorable and he deserves all the treats. I absolutely loved that neither of the MCs had gone to college, and that there was no shame in that.

Reading how Georgie brings Levi out of his shell, and about each of their journeys of self-discovery, all while coming together in this warm and beautiful romance just has my heart overflowing with moonbeams. Also, they have some GREAT sex. Very happy for them.

Anyways, the side characters are great, there is so much emotion in this book, but it's not heavy. It's just a beautiful story. I couldn't put it down and I can't wait to read whatever KC writes next!

I was lucky to receive an advance copy of Georgie, All Along by Kate Clayborn from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for my honest review and opinion. OMG! Kate Clayborn just keeps knocking her books out of the park, I truly loved this book! She just has a writing style that draws you in and keeps you turning the pages as fast as you possibly can. I think this just might be her best book yet! READ THIS ASAP!

This book was brimming with hope - small town charm, lovely characters, and a reminder that you don’t ever have to have everything figured out. I really loved it - such a pleasant surprise!

This book explores themes of self-discovery and love through the journey of our mfc Georgie. While the premise is intriguing and the writing engaging, the uneven pacing and predictable character arcs hindered my overall enjoyment. The resolution felt rushed, leaving me wanting more depth and closure. Despite these shortcomings, the book offers moments of emotional depth and tackles important themes. It may appeal to fans of contemporary romance seeking a light read centered on personal growth.

Georgie Mulcahy is a devoted personal assistant who has always prioritized others over herself. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she leaves her job in LA to return to her hometown. Amidst the chaos of this transition, Georgie stumbles upon a forgotten treasure - a "friendfic" diary she wrote as a teenager & an unexpected roommate at her parents' house - Levi Fanning, a former town troublemaker. I adored this story for its themes of love, friendship, and pursing your dreams. It's also never too late to reinvent yourself. :)

Sincere thanks to NetGalley and Kensington Books for an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review this.

I found this to be a good book overall, but not necessarily my favourite, but despite this, I still enjoyed reading this book. I found this to be well-written, and I would still recommend to people to read.

Georgie, All Along is a sweet (with a bit of steam) story about finding yourself. While it started off a bit slow for me, after a few chapters, I was hooked and couldn't put it down. I love the complexities of both Georgie and Levi - and I love that Georgie's relationship with her best friend also takes center stage. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more by Kate Clayborn!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

When Georgie comes back to her hometown unexpectedly, she finds Levi staying at her parent’s house. Georgie is at a crossroads, so she latches onto the idea that her teenage diary can serve as a guidebook of sorts. Levi was the town troublemaker and has grown into a quiet and grouchy hermit. Georgie begins to realize that what she wants may be right by her side - but she (and Levi) has to let go of the past first.

This was emotional and tender and so good. It’s definitely not a romcom - its serious. I really enjoyed it!

To be honest, the last couple books I read by Kate Clayborn have been hit or miss for me. The synopsis of Georgie All Along seemed my type of book. I was not disappointed. I’m a sucker for the Grumpy Sunshine trope. It started out slow, but picked up some chapters in. I loved Georgie and Levi.

You can't go wrong with a Kate Clayborn novel! The characters come to life on the page and she writes them well. Recommended!

I loved this title. It was beautifully written, the relationship unfolded in such a natural way. I will be looking for other titles by Kate Clayborn.

I throughly enjoyed this book. This book and characters where like able from the start. I liked the story from the start, to end.

This book was highly recommended by many of book friends and they were right. This was a really enjoyable read. I loved the characters and how they each had very well written plots of their own going on and yet they were seamlessly tied together. It was a fun read, but what made this book stand out even more was the ending. Overall, I thought this book was very well written. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for this eARC. All opinions are my own.

I read this book in one day from start to finish while on a flight to Italy. I could not put this down! I loved and related to how Georgie was written as a character. I always love a dual POV and this book gave me everything I could have wanted and more. Would highly recommend!

Thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to read this book in advance. The problem I had with this book was that there was no real conflict within the story. The plot is supposed to be dramatic, but without that conflict, there's no umph.

This was a genuinely sweet and surprisingly emotional read. I loved the main characters of Georgie and Levi, and really appreciated their alternating POVs as we got to know both of them and see their relationship develop. Levi was initially such a stoic character that having his thoughts was really helpful and gave the book a much-needed extra dimension. I thought the relationship was beautiful and realistic, and really appreciated that their conflicts were not just simple misunderstandings where no one spoke to one another. Their issues felt realistic and natural as did their conclusions. I really loved this one and will now read more by the author!

Precious! Adorable! I loved the characters, the “realness” of Georgie’s messy take on love and life and the message that even if things aren’t turning out like we originally planned….there is beauty in the wreckage! This is a fabulous summer read!

Enjoyed it!! It was a fun read. Levi was intense and lovable. Gigi was everything he needed. Loved her parents. Hated his. Happy ending

Kate is such a brilliant writer with the ways she brings her characters to live. Georgie was expansive and Levi was adorable. She’s chaotic and sunshine and immersed into the town life with Levi. The third act was truly splendid to read and see how Georgie and Levi overcame their obstacles.
