It's giving stalker... but in a girlie pop way and I don't know if that is a good thing or not.

I was expecting to love this but it wasn't for me. I did however like the writing style so I'll pick up something from this author in the future.

I had so much fun reading this, like watching a good romcom! It just made me feel good reading it! Lighthearted, entertaining, all round good read!

This was so cute! Definitely read like a debut but I'm so excited to see how the authors writing matures.
I had a few small issues that are maybe a more personal choice than actual issues like I didn't appreciate how the "crazy ex" plotline came about and there were a few pacing and time jump issues but for the most part this was such a fun and cute yet very predictable read but I feel like we were supposed to know the big twist going in so that didn't really dissuade me from enjoying the story.

This was a cute and fun read. I wasn't really connected to the plot or the characters but if you just want to pick up a book that's a straight up good time this is the one for you.

I had fun with this one. I can’t wait to see what else the author comes out with in the future. I can see myself definitely picking up more books by them.

A quick, fun, easy read . It was a bit predictable but I feel it would make a good holiday read. The letters between Naomi and Luca had me laughing

This was a fun read. It made laugh, it made soon, made me question my sanity 😂😂😂, but I had a great time reading it. It was also a heartfelt book, that makes wish everything's works out in the end

Is it the best romance book I've read? No. Did I have fun reading it? Absolutely. It was predictable, but I had a fun time, and enjoyed the plot, characters, and romance in this one.

A great super fun quick read! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of this book.

I had requested this book on Netgalley some time ago, but because I ended up DNFing the book I didn't leave a full review. I honestly don't think anyone would enjoy this book and for me it rates at a solid 1 star. It was an easy DNF and I won't be trying again in the future.

I absolutely adored this book. If you are looking for a good easy read with excitement, suspense and chemistry, then this is it. I really liked Luca and Naomi and felt like I connected with their characters. Luca’s treatment of Naomi at the start was frustrating but as we move through the story, it all starts to make sense. I don’t think this novel is anything ground breaking, possibly slightly predictable but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Another #NetgalleyBackLog #HateMail
I found this book to be a fun read that spans several years, documenting the correspondence between two pen pals, Natalie and Lucas, who have been writing to each other since fifth grade. The letters made me laugh, especially as they reflected how both characters changed as they grew older. While I did find some parts of the story to be obvious and figured them out right away, I didn’t feel this detracted from my enjoyment of the book.

An enemies-to-lovers AND epistolary romance?!? Sign me up! HATE MAIL by Donna Marchetti was so fun and highly engrossing -- one of the best romances I've read this year for sure!

Very simple rom com. A cute read. The banter back and forth between the two characters were fun. But a simple read.

Simple, cute but honestly nothing special. The banter between Noah and Lucas in their letters was so much fun to read though! I could've done without the spice. And this comes from a girl who LOVES spice in her books. It just felt a bit awkward and forced. I think the book would've been better without it.

Great read!

I loved this new perspective of letter writing!

Naomi and Luca have been swapping insulting letters since fifth grade, I personally would have given up before now, and continue into adulthood eagerly awaiting each other’s responses, becoming friends amid the insults.

I adored both characters and finding out why they wrote the insults they did and how they try to locate one another with often hilarious and entertaining results.

Overall an insightful and emotionally satisfying outcome.

I thought this was very good and I will have to add this to the shop shelves. Thank you for the chance for us to review.

Easy beach type read. The twist was pretty obvious but typical for a rom-com.

Thanks to NetGalley for the read.

An absolutely brilliant SMASH of a book, I couldn’t put this down! Cleverly plotted and brilliantly written, this will be a huge hit with fans of a witty, spicy tale of romance. Can’t recommend enough.
