Review of ‘This Will Be Fun’

This Will Be Fun is a fun and cozy romantasy adventure that focuses on heartache and friendship while making you smile and laugh.


This Will Be Fun follows former questing buddies โ€“ Elowen, Clare, and Beatrice โ€“ as they are brought back together after a decade apart to once again save the dayโ€ฆand deal with the baggage from years ago.

A Ton of Laughs

So, This Will Be Fun is described as โ€œThe Princess Bride meets The People We Meet on Vacation.โ€ I have not read either of those novels, so I canโ€™t speak to its validity. However, I have seen The Princess Bride many times, and I have to say that the claim is accurate.

This was such a fun fantasy to read, and just the opening sequence of Beatrice not even upset that she lost everything in her recent divorce or that her now ex-husband is having a party to celebrate said divorce. She is upset because she wants her self-warming robe, and he keeps it against the agreement. So all sudsy and ridiculous, she storms over and demands it back.

Itโ€™s so humorous, and that humor carries on throughout the entire novel. It felt fresh and moved effortlessly, keeping me hooked and smiling.

What I also loved about the storytelling were the nods to modernity. It was fun to see this medieval version of Uber and how soap operas are โ€œtelevisedโ€ by magic; it worked. The authors, because Asher is the pen name for authors Bridget Morrissey, Emily Wibberley, and Austin Siegemund-Broka, did a fantastic job of bringing a contemporary feel to the novel without making it feel forced or out of place.

The elements of the world-building were grounding and unique. Itโ€™s entertaining when authors can bring modern concepts and ideas into something fantastical while not losing that medieval edge. Sometimes, it doesnโ€™t work, but it worked so well here and made me smile.

Final Thoughts

This Will Be Fun was such a fun and delightful. I truly loved this book more than I thought I would. I recommend that anyone who wants romance, adventure, and humor pick up this book.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.
