It\u2019s why he created a dating app to help people find their one true pairing and why he\u2019s convinced \u201cthe one\u201d is out there, even if he hasn\u2019t met her yet. Or... has he? When his sister's best friend turns up in Seattle unexpectedly, Brendon jumps at the chance to hang out with her. He\u2019s crushed on Annie since they were kids, and the stars have finally aligned, putting them in the same city at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>Annie booked a spur-of-the-moment trip to Seattle to spend time with friends before moving across the globe. She\u2019s not looking for love, especially with her best friend\u2019s brother. Annie remembers Brendon as a sweet, dorky kid. Except, the 6-foot-4 <em>man<\/em> who shows up at her door is a certified Hot Nerd and Annie... wants him? Oh <em>yes.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Getting involved would be a terrible idea\u2014her stay is temporary and he wants forever\u2014but when Brendon learns Annie has given up on dating, he\u2019s determined to prove that romance is real. Taking cues from his favorite rom-coms, Brendon plans to woo her with elaborate dates straight out of Nora Ephron\u2019s playbook. The clock is ticking on Annie\u2019s time in Seattle, and Brendon\u2019s starting to realize romance isn\u2019t just flowers and chocolate. But maybe real love doesn\u2019t need to be as perfect as the movies... as long as you think your partner hung the moon.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><center><span class=\"ubb-buy\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0063000849\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/amazon.png?w=1280\" alt=\"Amazon\"><\/a> \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/hang-the-moon\/id1533646659\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/apple.png?w=1280\" alt=\"Apple\"><\/a> \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/hang-the-moon-alexandria-bellefleur\/1137495447;jsessionid=ED0992BB5CF46DB0C5515B3693DF8825.prodny_store01-atgap12?ean=9780063000841\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bn.png?w=1280\" alt=\"Barnes & Noble\"><\/a> \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/hang-the-moon\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/kobo.png?w=1280\" alt=\"Kobo\"><\/a> \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiebound.org\/book\/9780063000841\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/indiebound.png?w=1280\" alt=\"Indiebound\"><\/a> \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/books\/hang-the-moon\/9780063000841\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/bookshop.png?w=1280\" alt=\"Bookshop\"><\/a><\/span><\/center><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/55004138-hang-the-moon\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/widget_logo.gif?w=1280\" alt=\"Goodreads\"><\/a><br><\/center><center><p class=\"ubb-buy\"><div class=\"ubb-icon-tags\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/index.php\/reviews\/book-tags\/5stars\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/categories_0000s_0004_5-stars.png?fit=80%2C100&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"5 stars icon\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/index.php\/reviews\/book-tags\/contemporary\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/categories_0000s_0007_contemporary.png?fit=140%2C100&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"contemporary icon\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/index.php\/reviews\/book-tags\/m-f\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"80\" height=\"101\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/categories_0003_m_f-copy.png?fit=80%2C101&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"m\/f\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/index.php\/reviews\/book-tags\/romance\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"82\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/categories_0000s_0017_romance.png?fit=82%2C100&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"romance icon\" \/><\/a><\/div><\/p><\/div><\/center><br>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2021-05-26T04:51:40+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"\\r\\n\\r\\nI loved the author's debut book (the absolutely delightful f\\\/f Written in the Stars) and could not wait to read this one, especially after I saw the gorgeous cover.

And I was not disappointed! This book is best friend&#8217;s sibling and sunshine\/grumpy perfection. It&#8217;s an ode to love (and to Seattle) as Brendon tries to convince a skeptical Annie that romance isn&#8217;t dead, and I had a smile on my face the entire time.<\/p>\n<p>Brendon loves love, so much so that he founded his own dating app designed for people to find their one true loves. So when he finds out his sister&#8217;s best friend, Annie, who&#8217;s visiting Seattle, doesn&#8217;t believe in love, he decides to not just show her around Seattle &#8211; he&#8217;s going to show her, through a series of rom-com inspired dates, that true love exists. But it&#8217;s not too long before feelings get involved, and Annie&#8217;s set to move to London soon. Can true love concur all?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHow can you possibly say romance is dead when these movies are proof that it isn\u2019t?\u201d<br \/>\nHer laughter filled the car, sharp and sweet. It tapered off when she realized he wasn\u2019t laughing with her. Her eyes widened. \u201cAre you serious? Oh my God, you are. They\u2019re movies. It\u2019s all fake. It would be like using <em>Jurassic Park<\/em> as proof that dinosaurs are real.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cDinosaurs are real.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cWere real.\u201d She stared at him pointedly. \u201cAnd now they\u2019re dead.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Normally in reviews of m\/f romances I start off talking about the heroine, but Brendan is just *chef&#8217;s kiss.* He&#8217;s such a cinnamon roll that he&#8217;s almost unbearably sweet, a little bit impetuous but so good-hearted that it&#8217;s hard not to smile every time he&#8217;s on the page. I mean, he tries to convince Annie love is real because rom-coms exist. The logic is a bit sideways but it&#8217;s utterly adorable. It is a bit ironic that the founder of a dating app hasn&#8217;t found his perfect person yet, but he remains optimistic that they&#8217;re out there for him. While Brendon is the sunshine and rainbows romantic, Annie is completely cynical.\u00a0It would&#8217;ve been easy to make Annie completely awful, but while she&#8217;s a pessimist about love thanks to a series of bad first dates, she does open up to Brendon. She&#8217;s terrified of risking her heart, of dealing with the cycle of hope and disappointment as each relationship either crashes or just fizzles out slowly. Annie&#8217;s arc is her deciding whether to stay with what&#8217;s safe or to take a chance on something that might just make her the happiest she&#8217;s ever been.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI\u2019m having trouble wrapping my head around someone meeting you and getting to know you and not wanting to spend as much time with you as possible. You\u2019re like\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0. Lay\u2019s potato chips. You can\u2019t eat just one.\u201d<br \/>\nA sunbeam of warmth flared inside her chest. \u201cDid you just\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0. compare me to a <em>potato chip<\/em>?\u201d<br \/>\nHe nodded, face twisted, looking pained. \u201cI think I did?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Annie and Brendon&#8217;s relationship is sweet and slow, with Annie opening up slowly to the possibility of romance, and specifically romance between Brendon and her. She&#8217;s still cautious, though, and that caution is one of the primary barriers to their relationship. Should she accept the promotion and the international move for the job she&#8217;s realized she doesn&#8217;t really like, or should she take the risk of moving to Seattle without a job or a place to land? Are Brendon&#8217;s feelings for her real or just a remnant of the crush he had on her years ago? It&#8217;s sweet, it&#8217;s heartfelt, and the whole thing is relatively low angst.<\/p>\n<p>While the romantic relationship is absolutely swoon, for me, the friendship between Darcy and Annie stole the show. While they haven&#8217;t stayed in touch as much as either wanted, and though they&#8217;ve both changed, they still care deeply about each other, and the impending move weighs heavily on both of them. In fact, in a complete reversal of the usual &#8220;best-friend&#8217;s-sibling&#8221; trope, Darcy actually encourages Brendon in his pursuit of Annie, to try to convince her to move to Seattle instead of London.\u00a0It almost felt like Seattle itself was a secondary character. It&#8217;s obvious that Brendon loves where he lives, and the book is full of delightful touristy (and not so touristy) vignettes. It was an amazing vicarious experience and it&#8217;s got me longing to book a trip to Seattle later this summer.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYou\u2019re telling me you\u2019ve never stumbled across something great? Maybe you weren\u2019t looking for it, but it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to you? Don\u2019t you think that\u2019s possible? That sometimes we just get lucky?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Overall, I absolutely loved this book and cannot wait to see what the author writes next!
