Decidi voltar aos livros em inglês, primeiro porque são mais baratos e depois porque me ajudam no vocabulário e a não me sentir tão enferrujada. Os meus favoritos de ler são os romances, têm uma linguagem simples e quem não gosta de um bom romance?! 😀 

The Dating Plan foi o livro ideal para isso, tem uma escrita super simples, um romance leve e uma boa pitada de humor! Aqui podemos acompanhar e história da Daisy, uma engenheira informática super inteligente mas com alguns problemas de compromisso, e do Liam o melhor amigo do irmão da Daisy que achava que não era bom o suficiente para ela. 

Este foi um livro bem leve e que me diverti a ler, mas não foi um livro que mudou a minha vida nem me vai ficar na cabeça após o ler, acho também que podia ter sido escrito com pelo menos menos 100 páginas, por esta razão este é um livro 3⭐.

I loved this book so much! All of the Indian family dynamics were so great. Parts were laugh out loud funny. Another author I'll be reading again.

This was cute and laugh out loud funny. I loved the quirky characters. It's great Daisy has such a big family. I love dreading about them. The chemistry between Daisy and Liam was great. I really enjoyed this book

pre-read: The only reason i’m reading this is bc i loved The Marriage Game….. a venture capitalist AND “he broke my heart ten years ago” is going to be a hard pass under any other circumstances

update, page 48: So far there’s been a captain america sleep shirt, an avengers mug, a general marvel tote bag, and a “limited edition” captain marvel watch. Oh, and she describes herself as a manic pixie dream girl. So needless to say i’m having a great time 🙄

update, page 51: THERE’S ANOTHER MARVEL TOTE BAG this might be one of my last straws

dnf @ p. 51: reader, it was my last straw. I was so irritated that I wasted my time with this terrible book that I went and decluttered my mom's shelves. reader, I cleared out two.

Tropes : fake dating
brother's best friend (sort of?)

This book revolves around Daisy Patel and Liam Murphy, an Indian woman and an Irish man respectively.

Daisy is a strong, independent woman who has no interest in dating Liam Murphy when he proposes for her to be his fake fiancee for his will. In exchange of trying to save the company she works for which is not...going so well. But, sparks fly again when he's the picture perfect guy for her. The only problem? He stood her up at prom 10 years ago and she doesn't know if she could trust him with her heart again.

I absolutely LOVE Daisy and Liam's banter and spreadsheets for the dates through the book. Liam being pissed everytime she brought up their arrangement and her calling him her 'humraaz'.

I could so relate to Daisy at points in the book.

Liam could get his own paragraph from me. He's THE guy for Daisy. He embraces her culture with so much love and was an instant yes from her aunties when they met him. He's possessive, caring and utterly in love with Daisy.

Oh, and the smut? Yes.

100% recommend!!
