Too Good to Be True by Prajakta Koli – A Romance Worth Reading?
Just finished Too Good to Be True by Prajakta Koli—so, is it actually too good to be true? Let’s talk.
Is It a Romance Novel?
Yes. Is it a good romance novel? Eh, debatable. If you’ve ever read a Wattpad story and judged the entire romance genre by it, this one might give you the same vibes.
The Plot & Characters
Avani, our protagonist, works at a bookstore and dreams of that swoon-worthy, fairy-tale romance. Enter Aman—rich, handsome, and always saying the perfect thing. Oh, and he’s got "yummy biceps" (her words, not mine). Sounds dreamy, right? Well, not so fast.
ClichΓ© overload: The rich-boy-poor-girl trope is here in full force.
Predictable storyline: The plot is thin, fluffy, and surface-level at best. Emotional depth? Not so much.
Side characters? Mostly props for Avani’s emotional rollercoaster.
The Romance & Humor
Romantic tension? More like hormonal chaos. Less Pride and Prejudice, more “teenagers texting at midnight.”
Humor? Hit-or-miss. Some jokes land, others feel forced and cringey.
Final Verdict – Should You Read It?
If you're new to romance, this might be a fun, easy read. The language is catchy, and it flows well. But if you're a seasoned romance reader, chances are you’ll be rolling your eyes.
For me, it’s not too good to be true—it’s just meh to be real. Period. Bye.
