Out of the park! Enemies to lovers is my favorite rom com trope and this one hit all the high notes!! Molly is struggling to finally make nice with childhood rival Jude. When forced to help plan a joint anniversary party they can’t help but start seeing each other for the steamy grown ups they now are. Using their new relationship as a springboard into making difficult choices in the pursuit of genuine happiness Molly and Jude falter a few steps and help each other become their best self!

An easy romcom read with a friends-to enemies-to lovers trope. Molly and Jude’s families were close neighbors and they grew up together being the youngest kids, always playing together until one day something changed and Jude became a trickster to Molly. Constantly playing pranks on each other, eventually having a minor truce after reaching adulthood.

Highlights
- Jewish representation
- Friends to enemies
- Cute dogs
- Taylor Swift references
- The Beatles references

I like that Molly was a non practicing lawyer but working at a recruitment agency and helping people find jobs, her reasoning to place them in a good position was heartwarming. Additionally, Molly’s best friend Esther was an interesting character and I liked their friendship.

Overall it was a so-so read. I thought the plot was a little unrealistic, the pranks and banter between the pair, considering they are 27, quite juvenile. I enjoyed the parts with cute dog Yogi and the inclusion of Jewish culture. I wasn’t completely sold on them being lovers and the story dragged for me and could have been shorter length. Lots of ping-ponging emotions between friends and rivals, there were almost too many different plot points but none of them really sparked my attention.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

An entertaining romance book where the fighting main characters date each others look a likes. I really liked the banter between Jude and Molly when they were trying one-up each other and when they were flirting. This books sits somewhere between enemies to lovers and friends to lover but not quite either. There were a few super cute swoon worthy moments too,

I found this an easy going read with a few pulls on my heart along the way but not very heavy.. Overall a cute romance read.

Thank you to NetGalley and @ReadForeverPub for the free ARC for my opinion.

Opposites attract.
Enemies to lovers.
Childhood friendship to adulthood forced proximity.

THis one had it all and it worked. Totally cute and enjoyable!

I loved this concept from the moment I read the description, and Schorr absolutely delivered. I can't resist nemesis-to-lovers (especially when they throw nicknames around like these characters did), and this one was filled with spectacular banter and character personalities that leaped off the page. Oh, and the DOGS! Everything was wrapped up in a perfect romance package. I can't wait to add a physical copy to my bookshelf.

New Yorker Molly Blum knows everything about her lifelong nemesis, Jude Stark. With their families so close, they should have been best friends, but instead she thinks he's a too-charming slacker, and he thinks she's allergic to fun. After years of one-upping each other's pranks, one high school joke went too far, and aside from family functions that threw them together, they stopped speaking entirely. But now that the Blum and Stark siblings are all planning a massive, joint party for their parents, there's no better time to resume their war. Only somewhere between all the harmless hijinks, a reluctant friendship is developing... and a spark of sexual tension. It might have to do with the fact that since they can remember, they've been dating each-other's doppelgangers, or the fact that neither of them is as horrible as they thought. Molly and Jude have mastered the act of hating each other, falling for each other is a whole new territory.

This was a enjoyable and easy rom-com! The whole 'I say I hate you but everyone I've dated in my adult life looks like you and has the same interests as you' storyline was SO well done, and I loved all the comments coming from both of their friends and families that were clearly well-aware of their dating histories but never thought to mention it to either of them. The beginning hooked me, but I will say, after several chapters of the constant pranking it did get a little old. I did enjoy how the brief emotional conversations were sprinkled into their first several meet-ups after not seeing each other for years, but there was still a lot of repetitiveness. There was a lot of things that adult Molly couldn't seem to get past from her childhood, and that storyline was also a little overdone in my opinion. It was just little things that knocked this down to 4 stars for me, because their chemistry and banter was enough to keep me reading!

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing for the ARC in exchange for my honest review!

The tension build up was fun and realistic to read and the

These two need to grow up—in more ways than one! If you're a fan of the love/hate trope, you’ve gotta check it out. We're talking enemies-to-friends-to-lovers and back again. These childish adults exchange insults like it's their job, and you know what? It works for them. The much anticipated next book from Meredith Schorr releases July 25th from Forever Publishing. Snag your copy and get ready to spend the day with romance spiked with unresolved childhood trauma!

This is definitely a "Will they, won't they?" kind of Rom Com. This is the second book that I've read of Meredith Schorr's and I thoroughly enjoy her writing style. This was a fun, easy read that I enjoyed every second of reading. I cannot wait to buy a physical copy for my bookshelf when it's published in July (around my birthday, so happy birthday to me I guess!)

This is enemies to lovers for sure.

When they were little little they were best friends. Then one day they weren't. After that came an epic prank war that lasted through the years. And man was it a lot of pranks. Some funny, some disappointing, some disastrous.

Their families are really close, and their parents are friends. So when their siblings decide to throw a dual anniversary party they put Jude and Molly in charge of finding a venue. Can two people who despise each other find a place?

Molly is a type A girl. (But she has a good reason!) And Jude is your devil may care type guy. Total opposites. But what happens when they're forced into each other's orbit again?

I had a hard time seeing the chemistry between the two main characters. But this was cute. I liked the book tropes that were added. It was overall a good time.

This was a cute read. I'm a bit enemies to lovers fan and I knew this book would be right up my alley. I love the way this author writes and the relationships that she creates between her characters. It really was such a good read & I really enjoyed this book. I'm so glad that I got the chance to read it early and will definitely be recommending it to folks who love romcoms. I enjoyed the characters the most. I'm excited to see what the author comes out with next as I'll definitely be reading it! Thank you to the publisher for my early copy of this book!

Very sweet book. I enjoyed it. I wish the chemistry between the characters had been a little more believable. Other than that, it was a cute rom com.

A fun quick read about two childhood enemies who might actually get along more than they think.... A great enemies to lovers due to forced proximity story.

This is full of family drama, witty banter (from everyone, not just the two love interests), crazy pranks, and great character development! What more can you ask for?

Over all, super quick and enjoyable read, I read it in one sitting. If you're looking for a fun enemies to lovers book, I highly recommend this!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I was immediately drawn to this book because of the beautiful cover and the premise.

Someone Like You was a light read with lots of witty banter, crazy family antics, and some fun twists. While Molly and Jude were likable and at times very relatable characters I struggled at times with the storyline and I felt it jumped around a lot. The idea of this book was so so great but just fell flat in some areas and seemed unrealistic at times.

Overall I enjoyed reading it and would definitely recommend especially if you’re a fan of the childhood enemies to lovers trope.

Thank you so much to NetGalley, Meredith Schorr, and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for an honest review!

Someone Just Like You by Meredith Schorr, is a heartwarming enemies-to-lovers romance that will give readers all the feels. The novel follows the story of Jude and Molly, two individuals who have been at war with each other since childhood. But when they are tasked with planning their parents' wedding anniversaries, they are forced to put their differences aside and work together.
The author does an excellent job of creating a fiery and passionate duo in Jude and Molly, whose chemistry is palpable from the very beginning. The novel is a quick read and the enemies-to-lovers trope is executed flawlessly, making it a swoony and romantic read. Additionally, the inclusion of an adorable Goldendoodle named Yogi adds an extra layer of charm to the story.
Overall, Someone Just Like You is a delightful and heartwarming read that will make readers melt. It's perfect for anyone looking for a quick, swoony-worthy read that is sure to leave a lasting impression

This story had all the tropes I love….enemies to friends, forced proximity….what more could I ask for? This was such a fun, quick read about two childhood rivals who might have more chemistry than they think! I loved both main characters and I often found myself smiling at the banter.

Someone Just Like You at times was sweet and funny. I loved the idea and the storyline as a whole. But the details and character development were lacking.

I am sad to say this book just wasn’t for me. I don’t often have this feeling, as I read YA books fairly often as well, but I just felt too old for this book. The characters though not far from my age just felt unbelievably immature.

Thank you to NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Wow I really really enjoyed this book!! This is my first read my Meredith Schorr and I would most definitely read another book by her again!

Someone Just Like You gave me all the feels and oohs and ahhs,. Jude and Molly are just a fiery duo from the start! I was hooked immediately with these two! What starts out as a rivalry of pranks/wars between the youngest siblings between two families quickly bleeds over into adult life.

But when Molly and Jude are asked to help plan the wedding anniversaries for both sets of parents, will they be able to get along for more than 5 minutes to book a place? Or will their decades long war finally be the thing that makes them realize something else about the other?

This is a very quick read and super enemies to lovers trope! I highly recommend for anyone needs a swoony worthy read that will make you melt! Also there is an adorable Goldendoodle named Yogi!

Someone Just Like You is a classic enemy turn lover novel. Molly and Jude grew up despising each other only to come together as adults to help plan a joint anniversary party for their parents. Lots of tension and build up as their story progresses! Great read, highly recommend!

Loved the enemies to lovers trope. It was a cute and easy read. I would definitely recommend! It was a quick read for me and I liked it more than I thought I would.
