Carla β¨
i started this book two weeks ago but in reality i it could have been finished in a day π₯² sometimes a girl is just tired you know? but lets talk about the book π
what can i say? this love story was certainly a really cute one, falling for the roommate you only see once a month? and the feeling is mutual? heck yes
let's talk characters because aside from our mcs there was a lot more people included in this story π
i didn't know how the 8 roommates situation was gonna be handled throughout the story but i ended up falling so in love with each roommate that i wish we get some books about them too π₯Ίβ€οΈ
but Henry and Lucy's story? that really dragged me through all the stages in grief...
denial? yup
anger? yes
bargaining? also yes
depression? i had to take some time off to be able to finish the book so... maybe, yes?
acceptance? yeah, that was me today accepting i needed to finish it once and for all π«‘
even though that may sound way harsher than i intended to the reality is i started loving this book, SO MUCH, it made me giggle, made my heart warm up π₯Ίβ€οΈ but then... the drama started π
but Carla it wouldn't be romance without a little drama? yeah you're right, but remember that anger i told you about? Lucy was way too much for me at times, so much so that it made me want to strangle her ππ there were some behaviors she showed towards the end of the book that really didn't fit with what i saw of her at the start of the book and it left me wondering what the hell happened π₯²
Henry's arc was quite as I expected, despite him being aloof at times and not saying things as carefully as one would say them, he had a heart of gold, and in the end he was what i liked most out of this pair π«Άπ» he was driven and his goals were clear relationship wise and work wise, so big round of applause to him ππ»
so if you are looking for a real cute romance that's character driven, this might be your book, and you'll hopefully love it just as much as i did! βΊοΈπ
thank you to netgalley for the arc and to harper collins for sending me a finished copy of the book, this never happened to me and I am really grateful π₯Ίπ
