Why 100 Promises is Your Next Read
There’s been a lot of novels released this season already, but the one that seems to be taking the internet, BookTok, BookTube and Bookstagram by storm is 100 Promises by Meliá Grasska.
This breezy romantic comedy seems to combine the very best of summer with the very worst, in a way that no other authors seem to be doing. Sure you could head to pine covered lakeside towns or gorgeous tropical beaches, but the dusty, red-rock, lakeside small town in 100 Promises will have you yearning for the desert…
And while that does seem slightly oxymoronic for a summer read, in this romance novel it somehow makes perfect sense. The setting creates a feeling of claustrophobia coupled with possibility only found at the edge of civilization. The juxtaposition between utter freedom and complete isolation is stark, and Grasska does a wonderful job using setting to its fullest potential to add depth to her plot.
Mix that with childhood sweethearts longing for a second chance at their first love and there’s a lot of feelings straight out of the gate. Unfortunately for these characters, they don’t seem to get their act together until the bride’s wedding day…
And with a runaway bride, her first love’s truck, endless possibilities and nowhere to run to, 100 Promises by Melia Grasska creates a spectacular romantic comedy that’s reminiscent of films from the early 2000s. This breezy summer read is an absolute must for any serious romance fans and lucky for you it’s on Kindle Unlimited so you can read free with a subscription, or buy the ebook for just $0.99!
And if you’re hoping to cut back on your screen time, no worries! Paperback options are also available with Amazon Prime.
