Survivor meets The Bachelor in Attached at the Hip, an irresistible, romantic adventure by New York Times bestselling author Christine Riccio. Orie Lennox has spent her entire life prepping for her happily ever after and now that she's graduated, she's low-key wondering, when the heck is it gonna hit. Her love life, her new job, her relationship with her sister: none of it is quite what she envisioned it to be. One evening, on a whim, she applies for a reality show where she'll be stranded on an island, with a bunch of strangers, to play a game of human chess for a shot at a million dollars. What better way to force herself to break up with the things that aren't bringing her joy, than to abandon them all on short notice to live off the grid on a beach in the South Pacific? Orie's shocked when she ends up cast in an experimental romantic edition of the show; and even more surprised to find that her old high school crush, Remy, has been cast as well. Orie's one of ten contestants, set to compete in formidable challenges, while speed dating, in the wilderness: without deodorant, toilets, shaving cream, or showers. She finds herself tied up literally in a game of risky alliances as she navigates ever-growing feelings for her 'one that got away,' alongside an exciting array of budding new relationships.

Amazing Quick Read!

I bought the book when it first came out and read it during summer. I had such a fun time reading it! If you are in a reading slump I highly recommend this book. It has such a fun spin on a game show. I haven’t read many books that take place current day and revolve around a game show and this was such a fun ride. There are some twists and turns and I loved where the story went! Highly highly recommend this to anyone, easily one of my favorite books of Christine’s!

Survivor x Bachelor in Paradise

This is an excellent book if you enjoy watching Survivor, and maybe Bachelor in Paradise. In this hilarious romantic adventure, Orie thinks she has signed up to be on Survivor, but it turns out she’s on a Survivor spin-off show that has a romantic pairing element (a la Bachelor in Paradise). As she fights to win the prize to help her family, and prove to everyone that she’s an Adult who can handle herself, she has to navigate tricky alliances between: the one who got away in high school; a parkour star who turns out to love books as much as she does; and the new friend who wants her to stay loyal to the women on the show. It’s a fun story and I really enjoyed the audiobook.

Pobody’s Nerfect

Attached at the Hip is a delightful and humorous romantic comedy that celebrates individuality and the power of friendship. Orie Lennox, a quirky and endearing protagonist, navigates a reality TV show with a unique twist, and the results are hilarious and heartwarming. The author's witty banter and relatable characters make for a captivating read. The friendships formed within the show are genuine and heartwarming, adding depth to the story. The romantic tension is palpable, and the slow-burn romance is satisfying. The book's unique premise, which blends elements of reality TV and survival challenges, provides a fresh and engaging backdrop for the story. It's a perfect blend of humor, romance, and self-discovery. Brittany Pressley's narration of Attached at the Hip is exceptional. Her portrayal of Orie's quirky and endearing personality is spot-on, bringing the character to life. Pressley's voice work enhances the listening experience, making it a delightful and engaging audiobook. Overall, Attached at the Hip is a must-read for fans of romantic comedies.

Rom Com Meets Survivor

As someone who has never seen Survivor, I still really enjoyed this book! I've been a fan of Christine's since her Youtube days. I've read Again, But Better and Better Together as well, and I love being able to see how she has grown in her writing abilities. In regards to Attached At The Hip specifically, I feel like she did something very original with this book, especially the twist at the end. You find yourself getting sucked in to the story, this book was really easy to binge read. If you enjoy rom coms, I highly recommend this book.

What and fun and intriguing read!

What a fun and intriguing read this was. I enjoyed the the survivor type reality show plot line, as well as the romantic journey many of the characters take. I also very much enjoyed the friendships the main character had and developed throughout the story (gotta love the great squad vibes).

Cute and Engaging!

This was such a cute read!! I loved the premise and the characters and the relationships. I was on the edge of my seat until the very end trying to guess what might happen. I loved Orie and how complex she was. Her problems and struggles were so grounded and it made the story that much more powerful. I still have so many questions about the ending, but overall this was such a wonderful read!
