Plot Twist is a quick and fun romance read that handles some more serious topics, like feeling unworthy and alcohol addiction. I enjoyed the book while reading it, but something just didn't hit the mark for me to make this a great read. I think the stakes just didn't feel very real to me, or at least Sophie's didn't. I didn't really see how meeting all of her exes would particularly help, especially when she's on a deadline, and it led to this gray area where she's kind of engaging with two people at the same time.

I like Dash and I think his character development, especially in the last 30% or so of the book, was really engaging. The chemistry between him and Sophie felt just a little forced in the beginning, but that might just be me not understanding how people can fall in love that quickly lol. I also didn't really understand why Poppy would be so annoyed when learning that Sophie and Dash were seeing each other. If they don't even know what their relationship is, it makes sense not to tell her about it, but I've never been in that kind of situation, so maybe Poppy had a normal reaction.

Also, as someone who tends to dislike modern pop culture references in books unless it makes perfect sense with the story...I have to mention TikTok. The platform is a surprisingly large part of the plot, as both MCs have an account and it is included in the main conflict for both of them. In the context of the story, the mention of modern social media sites makes sense, but the constant reference to TikTok started to get to me a bit.

There's also some pansexual representation, as Sophie states she identifies as pan, and she has a pacemaker that is mentioned several times. I'd never read about a MC with a pacemaker, so that was cool to read about. The ending was also sweet, and I do like Sophie and Dash together. They balance each other out, but something about this just missed the mark for me.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book. This review reflects my honest opinions.
