Picking Daisies on Sundays Paperback – July 30, 2023

Yes, the title of this review is the dedication, and yes I squealed like a child when I saw it!! This book is literally calling all the Lynn Painter and Ali Hazelwood fans together for a new fun, cute, and heartfelt romance for a fake-dating romance book. I don’t want to spoil anything so just go for it! Especially if you want to get into romance and don’t know where to start: this is the book for you ❤️

“I’ll buy you flowers every day for the rest of my life if it makes you this happy.”if you're looking for something sweet and hopelessly romantic with yearning, look no further.i enjoy a fake dating trope, but combine it with a longtime reunion w a former best friend who was an unrequited love and set it in nyc, and i'm eating it up.The Lover and the Archer, they’d call it. The girl who kept falling in love, and the boy who could receive love from whomever he aimed his heart at.i liked how dani was at school for fashion bc it took me back to my fashion construction class days in high school (honestly was SO lucky to have that) - it's a fun industry to explore as a career/study for fmc that i haven't really seen much. sometimes dani did have that "not like glamorous girls, i'm into vintage and different" thing going but it wasn't overwhelming.I’d be lying if I said I never thought about where my hands would take me across your body.levi was definitely a soft boy mmc, it was so clear he was head over heels for dani but it made them being ridiculous about each other funny and the tension heightened. also he writes POETRY in FRENCH?? hello, dreamboat!!! i do think the plotline of him and the ex bella could've been stronger esp as it fizzles out a bit but i didn't care for her character much anyways to begin with, so i'm not complaining lol.“Because when you find out the person you’ve been in love with for your entire life loves you back, you’ll spend the rest of your life making up for lost time.”there is a bit of grief dealt with as both dani and levi have lost their fathers, but it's not a main focus and doesn't overshadow the love story.“You intoxicate me, Daisy. The scent of flowers lingers on you everywhere you go, and I always want to follow”overall, it was a sweet romantic read and perfect for spring! ✿

PLAY THE WAY I LOVED YOU TV🎼 SO IN LOVE THAT YOU ACTED INSANE & THAT’S THE WAY I LOVED YOU 🎶 GOT AWAY BY SOME MISTAKE 🎶All of Fearless tv could be their soundtrack bc it oozes you belong with me, invisible, teardrops on my guitar, foolish one, & so high school & it couldn’t have been better!I 👏🏽will 👏🏽not 👏🏽hear 👏🏽any 👏🏽slander 👏🏽about this book! The perfect fluffy, girly swirly pop, giggling manically, cheeks hurting, pink Pinterest loving springtime book! It’s set in May, the best time ever & in NYC & Daisy’s a fashion student & Levi’s a lit major. Ahhh so romcom so good!I did like how they were in their 20s rather than teenage love bc that gets old & the best romcoms are when they’re both in their 20s figuring out adulthood. Unrequited love, friends to lovers, fake dating, second chance romance, secretly pining after each other without the other having a clue.I loved the author used descriptive imagery & similes. Like how she described Levi speaking French was like “melted chocolate dripping from fresh fruit”. & how “rain drops sat on his clothes like sparkles”, & kissing him felt like “a candle softening from the heat of its flame.” & dreamily comparing his brown eyes to “the sand of a beach after it rained or the color of coffee after it brewed.” SWOON!!!There were some grammatical typos here & there throughout the book. & Daisy did make me insane bc of her insecurities clouding her judgement & only her pov through the whole book.I would’ve LOVED & really needed Levi’s pov in the book bc Daisy was unreliable at times just bc of how she recollected events & conversations. Like you could see Levi wasn’t doing anything that didn’t show her how into Daisy he was & Daisy was set in this mentality that he couldn’t possibly feel the same way towards her. Like girl! Go get your eyes checked!When I figured out the lines before the start of every chapter could’ve been his poems had me bursting at the seams! I was like HE LIKES HER BACK!! It was so cute & the perfect way to end the year/start the year with a amazing fluffy read.I cant wait to get started on the next book! There weren’t any spicy scenes once they got together but I felt like that was ok & didn’t lessen their realization of their love, even though a little smutty scene could’ve definitely been included in a part or two.1000000/10 🌟

I appreciated the tenderness of this couple's love even though i'm not used to single pov. There were.moments that I could not stand both of thr characters but they came through in the end. Will reread in the future.

this is truly one of the best and fastest books i think i have ever read. all i wanted to do was to sit down and to read this book! it was fast paced, cliff hanging, i never wanted this book to end. i am excited to read liana cincotti’s second book as well!! buy this book immediately!!

This was an enjoyable story, despite the frustrating cluelessness of the main character, Daisy, and the fact that this book really needs editing. There are so many typos and errors; I am at a loss as to how they were missed.

This book had it all. I loved how it turned out they both loved each other the same. I thought Dani loved him the most until it turned out he wrote a book about her IN FRENCH. He was clueless for everyone except Dani. Very well crafted and Levi is the perfect man.

The way I fell completely in love with this book. The story line was perfect, the yearning from both, the love. It was so tender, so sweet; I want to read this book over and over. It’s such a perfect storyline. Reading it, I know me girl is a swiftie cause the references had me weak. I’m so happy for how they ended up together, love!
