The Sweetest Revenge is an apt title for a quick, witty read. While the main character, Amy is hit or miss in her likeability, I really enjoyed Jake and Maggie.
When Amy is spurned by her lover she takes out her revenge in a way that makes her have to turn and run and hide. Two years later she has made a life for herself, albeit a somewhat sad, lonely, and boring life. Soon this all changes and while Amy loses herself a little once again, she redeems herself and has the reader rooting for her. Overall, I enjoyed this book and read it very quickly. I would give it 3.5-4ish stars.

This book was ok. It started off strong but I quickly became bored. I couldn't really identify with the main character. I found her to be annoying.

One Word: HILARIOUS! What better way to get back at your ex than to destroy his car...in a (ahem) interesting way?! And then to have had it videod and shared on social media to the point where you feel forced to run away...across the world to London. That's what happens in The Sweetest Revenge...and more! I did the audio for this book and it was fantastic! Add this to your TBR. It's funny, romantic, sweet and spicy!

Honestly couldn’t finish this, got about 25% through. Main character seemed so unlikeable and unstable I just couldn’t see myself caring if it all turned out okay for her.

Oh Lizzy Dent, I just knew I was giving you another chance for a reason and damn if you didn't nail it. I'm glad I stuck around, but, more importantly, I'm glad I got to meet these characters and spend a little time with them - it was an absolute pleasure.

The Sweetest Revenge has humour and romance and it was easy to speed through the pages. The main characters were well written and I was rooting for them to have a happy ending. This book feels like it could be a Netflix film with likeable characters and humour.

the story of amy and jake which is a fun romcom with an annoying ex threatening to tip the boat! a fun read but maybe a little too much swearing if you don’t like it!

I have read all the author books and this one is the best one yet, I read in whilst on Holiday in Rhodes and recommend it to lots of people
amazing story and characters

would highly recommend

thanks to publisher and netgalley for the arc of this book

The summer job is one of my favorite books. It gave me all the feelings and had me wishing I was living abroad. This book was okay. I Just felt a little let down by it. Hopefully the next one will be even better.

Any story with a hilarious drunken revenge scene is my kind of story!
I loved getting to know the characters in this book! Amy was so fun and relatable, and I could read about Jake forever, such a sweetie! Their chemistry was great!
This is a fun, lighthearted, romantic book that I will read again!
Thank you to the publishers and NetGalley for an advanced reader copy in exchange for my honest review!

This was a cute story with enjoyable characters. I liked Amy as a main character, and I caught the slight Brooklyn 9 9 reference in the names.

I did however not find a whole lot of chemistry between Amy and Jake, and at times it was difficult to believe their relationship.

I also didn't really understand how Amy avoided her family for two years after her break up in the US. The reason felt completely blown out of proportion.

It's quite sweary, which is fine for me, but I feel some US readers won't enjoy the use of the C word.

Overall this was a pleasant read, but with a few misses for me.

This was a cute sweet love story with likable main characters. I struggled a little bit to find the chemistry between them, but all-in-all I would recommend this book.

Thanks to Putnam and Sons for my ARC!

I received this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would. Funny but a bit rote.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. I have previously read Lizzy’s work and always enjoys her style. She always writes relatable strong female leads.

I love love Lizzy dent and the quirky protagonists she writes. This was a win for me. Will be reading her books from now on

This was a fun, lively read -- a romantic comedy set in the world of TV production. Amy, a talented producer/development executive, experiences one of a modern woman's worst nightmares: an ugly incident that goes viral on social media. When she drunkenly gets revenge on her ex-boyfriend/boss by trashing his Audi, it ends her promising career in New York City, and she flees to London for a reset. No one knows her shame there, and she can start anew.

Trying to rebuild her life at a British TV company, she sparks up a romance with the hunky new downstairs neighbor, who happens to be a screenwriter. When the two join forces to pitch a TV show, it's hard for Amy to keep her personal and professional lives separate. And then, when her toxic ex accepts a job as her new boss, her old life and new life collide.

The book had many laugh-out-loud moments, as misunderstandings fly and Amy digs herself into deeper trouble. Only one small quibble: Although Amy is supposed to be American, some of her dialog sounds much more British. But that's not enough to ruin a fun book.

The Sweetest Revenge is a story about a girl navigating life after public embarrassment. Amy gets screwed over by her boss/ex-boyfriend and flees the country for a fresh start. Her new neighbor Jake, who was on a reality show, “Fantasy Island” is also suffering from public embarrassment. They spend the summer working together on a script for a murder drama in the hopes Amy gets a promotion at work. Unfortunately, Chris is back in her life again and is working temporarily for her company. He’s once again in the position to screw her over! After some drama and forgiveness with the help of Jake and her family, she is able to overcome her past and ultimately gets her revenge on Chris and her happy ending with Jake. I found the story to be entertaining and kept me engaged. However, I did feel the ending was a bit rushed and would have loved more details on Jake and Amy’s future. Overall, it was a good read and I would recommend. Thank you to the publisher and netgalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Lizzy Dent is one of my new favorite authors. Her new book The Sweetest Revenge is amazing! You will enjoy spending time reading this book.

I enjoyed parts of this book and also some of the portrayals of the stories just didn't engage me so it's mixed for me.

thank you to netgalley for the advanced reading copy. I really enjoyed this and will be getting copies for my shop.
