Reviews with content warning for Sexual harassment - The Wall of Winnipeg and Me

I wish I could say I’m not giving this five stars but I really really enjoyed reading this. It was so hard to stop reading at night. It was realistic in how slow it took for them to start becoming friends and then start liking each other, I didn’t find Vanessa annoying at all which was weird because I usually think the mc is slightly annoying in most contemporary romances. Also there were so many small cute moments that didn’t even lead to anything and just AH I LOVED THEM.

I hate giving books negative reviews, but I hated this book even more.

First of all, there was absolutely no romantic chemistry for 80% of the book, and then forced romantic feelings at the end.

Where was the conflict?? In a forced-marriage trope, the conflict should be that they’re trying not to fall in love, but there was no tension whatsoever.

My main gripe:
Sexual harassment was a big deal when happening to the female character, but when a fan unconsentually gropes the NFL player, she LAUGHS. Since when is sexual harassment a joke?

He had the emotional maturity of a grape and didn’t know how to apologize well.

There wasn’t much payoff to any scene. Scenes were cut off for no reason, cut to the next chapter and just recapped.

However, there were a few cute scenes, like when they were talking about fantasy football. Just not enough cute scenes for me to like the book, unfortunately.

Also, the first time they have sex is right after she runs a marathon?? WHAT

Just ugh.
