For Butter or Worse

2.75/5

The fact that the author talked and showed the anxiety the male mc suffers through made it more realistic for me. I liked that he was aware that despite talking shit that he was overstepping a stone.

I didn't like the fact that he only apologized for being dismissive toward all the sexism and misogynistic shit Nina had to go through because they got into an arrangement that benefitted them both and it took him so long to come forward and publicly apologize. Had he done this before, then there wouldn't have been any hate between them.

I didn't particularly like the female mc, her personality wasnt intriguing enough for me. The only thing i felt being pointed out was that she's bossy, blunt and reserved. I felt no connection between the MCs even though i liked the male mc.

The story itself in general was meh. It could have been better. There was zero chemistry, zero yearning. The smut itself was meh as well.

I feel really disappointed because this book was high on my tbr for this year. It was one of the few books i've been anticipating and it let me down :/
