Publisher's summary

For fans of Emily Henry, a debut about a rom-com screenwriter who doesn't believe in love and a divorce attorney who does, forced together at their high school reunion fifteen years after their breakup

Molly Marks writes Hollywood rom-coms for a living—which is how she knows “romance” is a racket. The one and only time she was naive enough to fall in love was with her high school boyfriend, Seth—who she ghosted on the eve of graduation and hasn’t seen in fifteen years.

Seth Rubinstein believes in love, the grand, fated kind, despite his job as, well…one of Chicago’s most successful divorce attorneys. Over the last decade, he’s sought “the one” in countless bad dates and rushed relationships. He knows his soulmate is out there. But so far, no one can compare to Molly Marks, the first girl who broke his heart.

When Molly’s friends drag her to Florida for their fifteenth high school reunion, it is poetic justice that she’s forced to sit with Seth. Too many martinis and a drunken hookup later, they decide to make a bet: whoever can predict the fate of five couples before the next reunion must declare that the other is right about true love. The catch? The fifth couple is the two of them.

Molly assures Seth they are a tale of timeless heartbreak. Seth promises she’ll end up hopelessly in love with him. She thinks he’s delusional. He has five years to prove her wrong.

Wickedly funny, sexy, and brimming with laughs and heart like the best romantic comedies, Just Some Stupid Love Story is for everyone who believes in soulmates—even if they would never admit it.

A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books.

Critic reviews

A Most Anticipated Book (Publishers Weekly, Paste Magazine, The Nerd Daily)

“Refreshing…A joy to read…Much like When Harry Met Sally but with way more angst (and sex). Doyle creates a strong, winning chemistry between Molly and Seth…A smart, slightly meta romance that plays out like the best movies.”Kirkus (starred review)

“A unique, sizzling second-chance rom-com with an HEA that will leave readers cheering.”Library Journal

“Doyle perfectly balances first loves and second chances in this stunning debut. Hilarious and heartfelt, Just Some Stupid Love Story is filled with the kind of romcom magic movies are made for, and Molly deserves every impossible, lovely moment.”—Ashley Poston, New York Times bestselling author of The Dead Romantics

Cute story

The writing was relatable and there were some funny parts. I think it had some unique elements to it but the ways that it mimicked other similar stories (without giving away spoilers) was disappointing. Also, I don’t think the H and h were properly matched. The H wayyy > than the h.

Also, some mentioned their being spice, which, I guess I missed?

Overall 3.5 out of 5.

Good performance

Storyline is OK, not sure I would keep taking her back after being hurt so many times.

Sexy & Perfect

A wonderful heartfelt romcom with the perfect amount of spice…and all things nice! Would read/listen to it again and again. This broke my book slump.

Repetitive

Hard to wade through 20 years of longing, when it wasn’t clear that they really did have a connection. The end didn’t feel authentic. Story didn’t feel authentic. Man was one dimensional, as was the female lead.

The story was too long

I didn’t really like this one. The story was too long and torturous. I liked the voice of the female reader and thought she did a good job. The male reader was kind of goofy and hard to listen to at times.

So much fun!

A great second (and third, and fourth, and fifth) chance romance between high school sweethearts. Funny and romantic, with enjoyable narration.

Eh

Both characters need therapy. Listening to their pov of them just being broken was really hard.

The title says it all

The whole thing was well written and well acted. I'm not a fan of dual narrators, but in this case, I could not see how one narrator could do both characters; but each narrator was fabulous given what they had to work with. Regarding the story line, I got whiplash from Molly's on again/off again actions, and Seth's very juvenile hope for someone to "pick me! pick me!". By Chapter 17, I was sad, and done. YMMV. I may, very cautiously, dip into another of this author's books as the writing was that good.
