This book had promise and I’m glad it lived up to it.

Amy is relatable in the sense that she has a life she has no passion for and through an accidental email she starts to see potential of a live and love she could have.

I got reminded of a Sophie Kinsella book I read a few years ago

The Typo by Emily Kerr was adorable, expertly crafted and so delightful.
The story is well-written, engaging and delightful on all levels. The characters are realistic, funny and so very awesome you'll wish they were real.
Amy and Cameron were so enjoyable!
I really enjoyed this one! It was so cute, I couldn't help smiling throughout the whole thing.

Thank You NetGalley and One More Chapter for your generosity and gifting me a copy of this amazing eARC!

I really enjoyed this book. Amy is lonely and stuck in a job that’s not her passion. Through a chance mix up she starts to email Cameron and they get to know each other. I did prefer Amy’s emails, but that was probably because I could relate more to them. I have read other reviews that said it was a slow burn, but I thought the pace was great. The story is all from Amy’s point of view, it flows well and is an easy enjoyable read. Thank you #netgalley

Amy and Cameron start an email chat after she received an important one intended for him and forwarded it on. She finds herself really looking forward to the sporadic chats, however find herself exaggerating her life to appear more interesting.
This can be described as definitely different, I did really feel for Amy stuck in her dead end job. However she finds herself supported more than she expects, including by her elderly neighbour and his two kittens. When she is being economical with the truth with Cameron this could be very cringe worthy, however I found myself sympathising with her and it was great to see her self confidence grow. Don't expect a rip roaring action story, more a gentle one watching someone grow.
I received an advance copy of this book from the publisher through Netgalley, however this did not influence my review of the book.

Unfortunately this was a DNF for me around the 45% mark.

I loved the synopsis and the premise of this book but I found the plot quite lacking in pretty much everything. Amy's inner monologues were very repetitive. The emails between her and Cameron were really formal and didn't elude to any type of romantic feelings by either party. Amy didn't show feelings of excitement, butterflies or much else when reading and writing her emails. I also found there were no descriptions for anything or anyone. None for Amy, her friends or neighbour or even her apartment. The only descriptions really were of her workplace which were quite sparse so I really struggled with that.

I feel like this book could have maybe been more interesting with a dual pov because it felt like I didn't know anything about Cameron at all so it was really hard to believe any kind of romantic feelings were being formed.

The only time I felt any sort of emotion was via my dislike of Amy's friends however I found myself frustrated because Amy didn't really do anything about it or to improve the situation.

Personally, I was really bored with the book and decided to spoil it for myself with other people's reviews. I saw that Amy and Cameron don't meet until the last chapter and they'd both been lying but there was no resolution to this?

A rom com for a dull day. Coincidental email contact sets Amy and Cameron on a long distance communication building up picture of who they would like to be. Their email communications sets off a chain of events where two underachieving individuals go on new lives. A catalyst transforms them
It is was a gentle read and no huge surprises along the way

The Typo was a sweet and gentle romance read. After an email is mistakenly sent to Amy Cameron, she forwards it on to the intended, Cameron. They begin to correspond and feel a connection. . . but is it possible to fall in love with someone you don't know?

This was a slow simmer of a love story and I overall enjoyed it. I enjoyed their correspondence and I liked Amy's character growth as the story goes on. I enjoyed his tales of life traveling to and from Antartica as well as her sharing life in Edinburgh. There was a tiny vibe of Sleepless in Seattle or An Affair to Remember towards the end and I could nearly picture it. Ending was cute (HEA), obviously.

3.7 (rounding up) out of 5.
0 out of 5 for spice

This was a good read. Amy receives an email for someone meant for someone else, a photographer to send their work for a gallery. She’s a musician and so she googled who the photographer may be and forwarded the email. This began an email exchange between the two. But Amy hasn’t been honest with Cameron. She’s really enjoying communicating with him, but can you have feelings for someone you never met?

I really enjoyed the premise of this book. I enjoyed both of the main characters, the setting, and each of the characters’ stories. This was easy to read and for the most part, flowed very nicely.

I enjoyed Amy’s personal arc in the book – from questioning herself and her confidence to becoming more confident in herself, what she wants from life, and overall happiness. It was nice to read that.

I just wish that the emails about penguins and whales weren’t so long. I also wish that they met sooner in the book than when they did. I wanted more personal interaction between the two, even if it was in phone calls. Emails can only get you so far.

I enjoyed our protagonist and reading along to see her growth and arc in this novel. I wish there were more interactions between the two love interests, but I really liked how it was her story alongside the romcom element. I would give this book a 3.5/5!

A typo on an email brings Amy and Cameron into each other's world. Both miles away from each other but they connect through emails and the occasional phone call. Is it possible to fall in love like this?

Aww this was such a cute story and yes you could predict the ending but I loved it so much. I do like Emily Kerr's books, she's very good at building a romance. The plot is simple but effective and focuses on more than just the romance between the leads. We see their emails through the story which I really liked and it gave a more modern feel to the book. The ending was so good and i love how it all came together. Amy is great, she develops as a character so much, learning how to find her happiness. A fun romance.

Very slow start. 15% in and the main characters have spoken once. Also the epistolary nature of the relationship makes it hard for the connection between the characters to be seen.

I enjoyed this book and would recommend to a lot of people but personally i just felt something was missing from it.

Tropes:
- Chance Encounter
- Travel Romance
- Friends to Lovers
- Pen Pals

Thank you for letting read and review this book on Netgalley.

3.5 rounded up to 4 ⭐️
Loving the personality of the FMC, maybe I relate too much 🙈 but she's very likeable in terms of being a very normal person. I personally enjoyed the story, I liked the format of writing through the emails. I understand why it wasn't but I would have liked this a lot more if it could have been from a dual POV, I felt like I was missing that. It was a nice fast paced read, the writing was a little basic but I liked it nevertheless.

Thank you NetGalley & the publisher for the advanced copy of this book!

This book is too cute!

When a gallery sends Amy Cameron an email intended for someone else, she tracks down the intended recipient and begins an email correspondence with Cameron Armstrong, who is on an assignment in Antarctica. Over the course of their correspondence. Amy finds the strength to be the kind of person Cameron thinks she is and builds her life from one that feels lonely, unsteady and unfulfilling to one that is full and fulfilling. The journey is one that is fun to watch, entertaining, and generally a sweet story.

This was cute, but maybe too much of a slow burn, major emphasis on the SLOW.

I liked it, but it won't be memorable.

Despite having moments where I had fun reading, there were also times when it was hard to keep my interest. I found Amy and Cameron easy-to-like characters, but I didn't feel the chemistry between them; I think they would have been better off as friends.

Thank you so much, NetGalley and the publisher for sending me this ARC.

Thank you NetGalley & the publisher for this arc in exchange for my honest review.

My thoughts:

I made it about 50% before I just couldn’t take it anymore, I apologize I had to DNF this one.

The writing style was really bad in my opinion, it lacked any character/ emotion… I wanted to be invested I just couldn’t, I didn’t find myself like the book at all besides them emailing about penguins at one part and that made me smile, other than that unfortunately I really wouldn’t read this one or recommend.

There are very few books that I have read that I say were boring. This is one of them. The Typo had dull characters, not a very good plot. There was nothing that I can say I liked about this book. I read it and knew that it is not one I would read again. There was no connection for me to any character in the book. I had such high hopes when I saw this book.
Thank you NetGalley, Emily Kerr and One More Chapter for the copy of the book The Typo. This is my personal review.

When Amy receives an email that isn’t meant for her she tracks down the intended recipient and so develops an email pen pal exchange.

I usually love friendship to romance novels but this was a very slow burn and I didn’t really feel the spark between Amy and Cameron.

The Typo by Emily Kerr is a cute epistolary romance. Amy receives an email intended for Cameron and duly forwards it on to him. From this initial contact they strike up a friendship by way of email as Cameron is on a ship in the Antarctic and Amy lives in Edinburgh.

I found this to be a light and entertaining read but I didn't really feel the chemistry between the MCs. I found it more of a developing friendship rather than a romance. Maybe it would have worked better if we hear from both POVs rather than just Amy's.

Thank you to Netgalley, Harper Collins UK and One More Chapter for providing me with a digital arc to read and review
