“Friends-to-Lovers,” “Enemies-to-Lovers,” “It’s Complicated,” and “It’s Wedding Season” are just a few of this delightful resource’s thematic categories. Award-winning filmmaker Fischer (Behind the Scenes: Illustrated Floor Plans and Scenes from the Best TV Shows of All Time) covers 45 mostly modern movies, dating from 1980 to now, including Annie Hall, Pretty in Pink, Notting Hill, Love, Actually, and Crazy Rich Asians. Readers are given a brief summary of the films and some interesting facts about them. There are also five multiple-choice questions for each section. A bonus round for each category gives similar information for other rom-coms, but instead of answering multiple-choice questions, readers are asked to do things such as match a list of movies to a quote or cast. A few older movies—for example, Roman Holiday, which was released in 1953—are included in these sections.
VERDICT A lively, fun, and distinctive book. It’s a perfect choice for readers to use at wedding showers, trivia club meetings, or girls’ nights out or even to practice for Jeopardy!
