Review: This is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith



This is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith

When Ellie gets an email, clearly not meant for her, she replies and spurs a friendly email exchange between her and 'G', a teen who lives in California. What Ellie doesn't know is that 'G' is actually Graham Larkin, teen heartthrob and celeb. 

They form a deep friendship and when Graham has a chance to pick the location for his next movie, he picks Ellie's hometown. He just wants to see her, meet her, chat with the person who he gets along so well with online.

Of course, it's more complicated than that. Graham has paparazi following him always and Ellie wants to stay out of the limelight to protect a family secret. Can they make their relationship work offline?

This is What Happy Looks Like is more than wish-fulfillment sap. It's a novel that looks at human relationships and the lengths we'll go to protect the people we love. It has a cheesy Hollywood rom-com premise, but I actually really loved the characters and seeing their story unfold.

Fans of contemporary romance will love this one. Definitely recommended!
