Review:

As always, I absolutely love a nerdy romance book. The way the author twists the whole Romeo and Juliet trope is probably the best one I have read. I chose this book for book club because it is a great starter romance for the people in our club who have never read any romance. The way they did ribs comics and how much comics are a part of the story makes the story even better. I really liked both the main characters and enjoyed how they switched back and forth between their perspectives.

Trigger Warnings:
Brief mentions of teens and adults drinking and a Fist fight

Synopsis From Book:

Miriam's family should be rich. After all, her grandfather was the co-creator of smash-hit comics series The TomorrowMen. But he sold his rights to the series to his co-creator in the 1960s for practically nothing, and now that's what Miriam has: practically nothing. And practically nothing to look forward to either-how can she afford college when her family can barely keep a roof above their heads? As if she didn't have enough to worry about, Miriam's life gets much more complicated when a cute boy shows up in town . . . and turns out to be the grandson of the man who defrauded Miriam's grandfather, and heir to the TomorrowMen fortune.
