I won a copy of Matinees with Miriam from Goodreads and I couldn’t wait to pick it up and get into it.
When I received this book I was just coming out of a massive reading slump that lasted half a year and figured at this point a romance would be the perfect thing to get me reading. I was so right! It was exactly what I needed. Even though there were plenty of times I got frustrated, even a bit annoyed with some of the characters, I still enjoyed the story.
I absolutely loved Mia. The black clothes, the hardly going out, the anxiety, the fact that she didn’t even want to sell her grandfathers theater. She somewhat reminded me of myself. She is like a cooler version of me. I knew I would like Mia after just a couple of pages.
Even show more though I liked Maya and Janice, I didn’t like Shane or Arty. It seems like I only liked the women in this book which is kind of strange. I also loved the theater and all the talk about movies.
Overall, I liked the story and it helped me get closer to coming out of my reading slump. I didn’t love Matinees with Miriam, but I would love to read more by Vicki Essex. show less
