I loved this enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy! It brimmed with life, laughter, family, steam, and joy. Excellent banter, realistic relationships, fun side characters, and a puppy! Mia and Alex are fantastic leads with heart and humor. What more could anyone want? (Except maybe a sequel?!)

Thanks to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for the chance to read and review.

I might just be a Hart fangirl at this point, because she has delivered three outstanding, personality-filled romances so far... and I am happy to go along for the ride! This was SO much fun, with tons of banter and such a playful feel. These two instant enemies have some crazy chemistry from the moment they meet, whether they realize it or not. Their feuding was actually foreplay, and I loved that the concept felt so fresh. I've never read a romance with a setup quite like this one. I adored that they slowly, begrudgingly found their way together, and the initial sparks that flew between them turned into a fiery inferno. Wowza, this was one SPICY delight. The first hookup scene was absolutely phenomenal, with heat dripping from the page. It's sexy and intimate one moment and completely hysterical the next, which made it such an engaging, entertaining read. I loved it!

The story follows Mia and Alex, two people who met on a dating app and had one brief, disastrous date. When Alex discovers that he is Mia's dad's boss, he can't get out of there fast enough - and Mia isn't exactly heartbroken that things didn't work out with the infuriating workaholic. That would've been the end of it if their best friends hadn't started dating and then proceeded to set them up on a blind date. Between hangouts with their friends and work events where they pretend not to know each other, Alex and Mia find themselves spending a lot of time together against their will. As they get to know each other better, the two soon discover that they're more compatible than either realized, but there's absolutely no way that crossing any lines is a good idea. Not only does Mia's dad hate Alex, but she does too... right?

I loved Hart's first two books, so I couldn't wait to get my hands on this one - and it definitely did not disappoint! Alex and Mia are electric together, with the kind of banter and chemistry that leaps off the page. I loved how their initial feuding set the tone for the story, and yet it didn't take long for those feelings to morph into something else entirely. Very few books have the kind of palpable chemistry and tension that these characters have in nearly every scene, and the spicy scenes were particularly memorable. Hart does a fantastic job bringing those moments to life. And I also loved the characters themselves; not only did Mia feel one-of-a-kind and was such a firecracker, but I loved Alex more with every page. He reveals a side of himself that was devastatingly addictive, and the book transitions into "he falls first" or at the very least "he pursues relentlessly" vibes. Which I adored, by the way. Honestly, I adored a whole lot about this. It was exceedingly easy to binge and will likely leave me with quite the book hangover, but it was such a playful, sexy, swoony ride.

Another great book by Livy Hart. I adore Mia and Alex's relationship. It had some spice, a cute dog, and a little bit of enemies to lovers so it was a great book in my opinion.

Um hi, okay wow - that was just the most delightful read. I laughed, I swooned, I got choked up - all the things you want in a great read. I had some high expectations when I saw this one was dedicated to the show The Office because let’s be real that show is a masterpiece and boy did it deliver! So many fun nods to the show that I so enjoyed picking up while reading, on top of just a down right good story with top tier characters.

I felt the second hand embarrassment through the screen of my kindle reading about Mia and Alex’s first date AND THEN when they just quite literally couldn’t escape each other. Even though these characters were pushed together in the most ordinary of ways, the way Livy Hart wrote those moments made them feel extraordinary. There was some real depth to their respective stories and I loved each of their character arcs.

Also talk about one H.O.T. couple - sheesh 🥵 PLUS a cute little golden retriever puppy 🥹 any book that has a puppy is an instant winner for me!

I loved this story and these characters and cannot WAIT to read my next Livy Hart book - thank you netgalley, entangled, and Livy for an early copy in exchange for an honest review 🫶🏻 can’t wait to add this one to the trophy shelf!

This was a cute little rom com that was quick and easy to read. The main characters, Mia and Alex, have great chemistry which made it easy to fall in love with both of them.

This is labeled as an enemies to lovers but the enemies element was lacking for me personally. What it seemed like was more of a push and pull or a will they, won’t they. I loved how they kept getting pushed together in awkward circumstances. The small town setting was perfection and I loved how entangled everyone was. Mia’s family and Josie and Ezra were such fun side characters and I really enjoyed the simple moments everyone shared together.

My main complaint for this book was that there were some loose ends that I kept thinking about. The main conflict in the book revolves around Alex and Mia’s dad but we never actually see the two of them resolve it. There’s also an issue with Alex’s cousin that never gets resolved. Other than those two issues, I really enjoyed the book!

this is such a fun, sweet, spicy story! Mia & Alex do have a blunder of a first-meet that only gets worse as they realize who each other is in their lives. I loved seeing them fight their attraction to one another and ultimately come together so fiery. I especially loved reading this from Mia's point of view because she also has to work through some self-imposed guilt and responsibility to her family and take what she wants from someone she thinks she can be happy with. Alex is also an unexpected sweetheart. I could tell as I was reading that he didn't love being the one to hurt Mia or her father, but he is only doing his job and can't make business decisions based on how his potential girlfriend would feel about it. Ultimately, I loved how open and honest Alex was with his feelings once they became clear to hime. And I loved seeing Mia work through what her priorities are and healthy ways to enforce them, ultimately finding her happily ever after with Alex.
another amazing Livy Hart romance, she is becoming a favorite of mine very quickly :)

I really enjoyed this book! I honestly read it in a day! It was funny and romantic and everything I needed from a romantic comedy. The relationship between Mia and her family was everything to me, and I loved the family bond featured. All three sisters (plus Josie of course!) have such an amazing bond and continuously support one another and it’s beautiful.


I love the development of her romance with Alex, in the first chapter I couldn’t believe how different they were, but as the book progressed, they both compromised, and discovered they were more alike then they initially thought. The chemistry was amazing, and I really cannot recommend this enough to anyone looking for a cute and slightly spicy romance!

Some Kind of Blunderful is a bit of an enemy to lovers romance/forbidden romance that is inevitable to happen. Their first date starts off horribly and seems to go nowhere even though they are both hoping to make it work. The more that Mia and Alex are accidentally forced to interact, the more you can tell they misjudged their first impressions. Thankfully they don't let the obstacle of Alex being Mia's dad's new boss prevent them from dating and more. This book was so fun to read and even the conflict parts were worked through quickly with Mia and Alex communicating. Every character in the book was a delight!

Thank you NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for the chance to review the ARC. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Thank you to Entangled and NetGalley for providing a DRC of this title for review.

I had so much fun reading Some Kind of Wonderful, which had top-notch banter, swoon-worthy chemistry, and characters that you wanted to root for. I also loved that Hart pointed out in the acknowledgements that she wanted to write a love story between two ordinary characters just going about their lives to show that love can happen in the everyday moments. After reading and enjoying Planes, Trains, and All the Feels, I'm so glad this one was also a win and confirms for me that Livy Hart is an author to look out for. 5 stars!

I got this book as an ARC.

I enjoyed this book. It was super cute and fluffy.

This book follows Mia who is pretty much over dating app's. She is convinced that they are paved with hot profiles but when she goes on the dates they are just lame men. When she goes on a date with Alex, her point is proven when she believes her date is lousy even though he is super hot. But things take a turn when she finds out that Alex is her dads new hot-shot boss that her dad can not stop complaining about.

But what happens when they are constantly thrown together in dating situations? After going on double dates, having to mingle at picnics and being trapped on a cruise, Mia is starting to fall for Alex.

This book is funny. It's a Rom-Com Romance book. If you are looking for your next fluffy yet funny read this one is it.

Laugh out loud and full on Cringe moments in this book - Livy definitely has an awesome writing style.

Mia is dating, single after her failed engagement tore her apart, and put a rift between life long family friends. Not only is Mia dating, she is online dating. She has swiped right on Alex, who looks hot and has an online profile that interested her, in her small town, there aren't many new people to date.

To begin with Alex is late, so imagine her surprise while when talking to her best friend on the phone, he walks up behind her and gets the most cringeworthy part of the conversation before introducing himself, cue the most awkward date in existence, on both parts. Mia is messy and creative and a teacher of small children. Alex is put together and smart and doesn't really like kids. They are two very polar opposites, that keep getting thrown together, and they try to hate each other, sworn enemies. Until they aren't.

This book is hilarious, there are some really big cringe moments, some great lives and Alex and Mia keep being thrown together regardless of their attempts to avoid each other. Livy Hart never disappoints, this is my second LH ARC and I hope it wont be the last because she is fantastic.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the arc.

Mia Madden's dating life is not it. But things take a turn when her disastrous first date with Alex Conroy, who is very hot but totally the opposite of what she's after, ends up being her dad's new hot shot boss who he despises.
Torn between her loyalty for her father, the ever growing chemistry between her and Alex, and the fact that they keep meeting each other because their best friends are dating, Mia is feeling the pressure.

This was honestly so much fun. Livy Hart is a good author, I've read her previous novel, Talk Flirty to Me, and this one was definitely much more fun. It's a perfect mix between sexy and funny and cute and I loved reading everything. Mia and Alex were both very well-written and even the side characters, like Josie and Ezra were fun. The whole premise was interesting, the plot was well paced and it was just a very enjoyable read.

3.5 stars
Mia and Alex meet on a terrible blind date, where they have very little chemistry and everything seems to go wrong. Then the book moves into a new take on workplace romance - Alex is Mia's dad's new boss, and her dad hates him.
Over time, and lots of interactions including their dating best friends, Mia and Alex develop feelings for each other and end up exploring them.
It was a cute book with lots of interesting side characters. It was inevitable that her dad would find out and throw a wrench in things. There were also a few loose ends plot points that I would have liked to see resolved a little more.

What a fun read this was!
I loved how there wasn't an instant attraction between Mia and Alex. There was a great build in their relationship and many obstacles in their story.
I laughed several times in this as well which is always a fun time!
I just overall really enjoyed this story and I will definitely having a look at the authors other works because I really liked the style of writing.

Livy Hart, once again, wrote a knockout, hilarious, heartfelt romcom. This book was fantastic and I 10/10 recommend this!!

Livy perfectly nailed the transition from laugh-out-loud funny to deeply emotional. Mia and Alex were such a great couple and watching every disastrous encounter between them as they discovered how deeply they felt about each other was so rewarding as a reader. It was unputdownable.

If you enjoyed Planes, Trains, and All the Feels, you’re going to love Some Kind of Blunderful which comes out in 1 week!! Please don’t ask me to pick which book is my favorite because it’s impossible.

Thank you to Livy, Entangled Publishing, Netgalley and the #joyfulchaos bookclub for the ARC!

I am a huge fan of Livy Hart. Her books are just so fun and entertaining, and this one is no different. And I truly think her writing just keeps getting better.

Some Kind of Blunderful has some amazing, trope-y romance full of fun banter and witty characters. Alex and Mia have amazing chemistry, and I love their attraction that just won’t go away.

Trope wise, we have a forbidden romance, forced proximity, “bang it out of our system” (kind of, they get addicted pretty quickly), and plenty of steam! I highly recommend this book for rom com lovers looking for a quick and fun read!

Now what are the chances Josie and Ezra can get a book? :)

Some Kind of Blunderful takes your typical mold of “boy meets girl, boy and girl don’t jive, boy and girl are constantly running into each other, boy falls in love with girl” and gives it a new breath of love. This formula of writing is almost guaranteed for a knock out story but Livy Hart creates characters that are so lovely and easy to connect with in a way that feels different from other novels with the same formula. Some Kind of Blunderful has a truly amazing portrayal of family values, especially that of the father daughter relationship. Mia and Alex’s relationship is a result of many trials and tribulations that eventually end in a way that wraps up the story but still leaves you wanting to know how the rest of their lives pan out. There are some character development points I felt could have been explored, like the full extent of Mia’s heartbreak form her last relationship, but overall I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

SKoB was fantastic and so much fun!

This was my first book by Livy Hart and definitely won't be my last.
I loved everything about this - the tension, the drama, the banter - everything was *chef's kiss*.
Alex and Mia's story had me hooked from the first chapter and I couldn't stop reading. LH absolutely nailed the transition from laugh-out-loud comedy to deeply emotional romance.
The characters felt so real and relatable and watching their relationship develop, from their first disastrous encounter, which was hilariously awkward, to the connection they form from getting to know each other being forced together into all of these situations unable to deny or avoid their scorching attraction, was so emotionally fulfilling.
The side characters and family dynamics were also great, I loved Mia's best friend and her relationship with Ezra.
One of the things i absolutely love and it was included here was "we shouldn't do this" trope and let me tell you.... it almost killed me. The tension it created, the angst, it was soooooooo, soo good!
I literally have nothing to complain about - from the dual POV to the pacing everything was perfect.

I certainly cannot wait for LH's next book!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own

Some Kind Of Blunderful is a very solid, well-developed novel, both with the romance and the characters, but unfortunately it didn't really win me over, I couldn't feel very connected with the story itself, I think I would like it more if the book had a different pace and the romance took a little longer to start, but maybe that's just something a little more personal. The book doesn't have any major problems and I think many readers will like it! Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an arc in exchange for an honest review!

I LOVED this book. Livy Hart does it again- writing a romcom that I can't bear to put down and makes my face hurt from smiling so hard. This book is just so darn cute.

Alex and Mia are pretty electric from the get go but also both so painfully awkward at people-ing that their missed moments and their "almost" dates are both hilarious, frustrating, and 100% relatable. There were definitely moments where I wanted to hide in a hole rather than watch these two characters misread each other, their situation, and their own growing feelings. But it was all worth it for those spicy scenes. My goodness does Hart know how to write them!

I honestly have nothing to complain about or pick apart with this book. Every novel Livy writes gets better and better and I love watching her writing and her career grow. 10/10 if you love a romcom enemies to lovers- this is your book.
