How to Bite Your Neighbor and Win a Wager by D.N. Bryn

dark emotional lighthearted sad

This was like pretty bad but huge props to the writer for putting together a romance novel where the characters’ motivations and conflicts actually made sense and felt earned - as opposed to a ridiculous third act breakup that’s only there for story structure reasons. 

My main gripe: this features an absolutely deranged combination of super graphic horny thoughts but no actual smut. Edging. Insane choice. I hated it.

This was a cute easy read with lovable characters and a fun love story! Reading the changing perspective added to the story. It'll definitely also be reading the next book in this series!

3.5 or a 4, still thinking about it.

Edit: 3.5. I honestly have barely thought about it since I finished it. There's nothing inherently wrong with this book and I enjoyed it. But other than that, no big feelings.

SO good!! THE PINING. My only complaint is that it felt a little short like I wanted more of them!! The plot was very intriguing and I like that

the city’s plot doesn’t get resolved and that it continues into the next books with more characters.

It makes it more realistic yet hopeful at the same time. Loved reading about these silly guys
