I didn't fly through this in 2 days as I expected I would.
The story is about a 300 year old vampire who lists his spare room in order to attract a Roommate he can study to help him adjust to the modern world.
I didnt like the vampire too much. Nothing wrong with him- he just didn't possess the qualities I find attractive in a fictional crush so the parts designed to make readers swoon or feel some sort of affinity to him didn't work on me.
Also, it was way too easy. It was OK but I wouldn't recommend.

Cheesy, campy and a bit forced. But still entertaining enough to finish it.

I read this book very quickly. I liked the characters and the beginning a lot. The story then just had the issue a lot of romance books have for me, which is once the characters have shown they are interested, they seem like different people. The ending also felt very quick and a bit rushed compared to the pacing of the rest of the book.

4.5/5 - I loved this book! It was super easy to read and Frederick is swoon worthy. I wish the epilogue was the last chapter as I would have liked to see more time as them as a couple. And on that note I wish the epilogue was Cassie’s decision.

Kind of a cute read but nothing really happened. Mentioned Tik Tok, Instagram, Taylor swift and things like that that I don’t like in books. Couldn’t get into the love story because it was based only on attraction really. Seems more like a book a pre-teen would enjoy.

2.5 stars!!! This was really fun and enjoyable but it didn’t exactly remake the wheel. I was leaning towards 3 stars at first because I didn’t love or hate it. I liked it. But thinking back on the plot, characters, and overall experience… it didn’t do much for me. I rooted for the characters to get together but I never questioned when or how they would get together. It was all very easy. And even with the “villain” and conflict, everything got solved so extremely easily. In a rom com, I know there will be a happily ever after, but I like to see the push and pull of internal and external conflicts, and how the protagonist and the love interest deal with those separately and together. I am looking forward to Reginald’s book, and this was a super fun book to listen to while I worked. Also loved how Cassie’s parents are named Rey and Ben.
