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 dont know what it is but I love the fake dating thing and im all for it. This read gave me butterflies and made me cry.

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.

DID NOT FINISH: 14%

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!!

i’ll come back to this to write a more detailed review but THIS BOOK WAS SOOOOO GOOD OMG it surpassed all the books i’ve previously read thus far… THAT’S how good it was!!!!!!!!!! 10/10 would read again, i’d actually buy this book to permanently have a copy :o (update: WHY am i just now finding out that this is a second book in a series???? i srsly thought it was a stand alone!!! well it could be bc the story was fine on its own LOL but looking @ the first book, i’m intrigued bc i recognize the female and male leads so maybe i’ll have to check that book out too hmm)

update: it’s 08/21 and i never came back to give a detailed review :’( BUT i still think this book was so good!!!!! def one of my top 3 so far!!!!

i took too long to come back that i don’t rlly remember much about the story… but there was def the nerdy girl & bad boy trope PLUS younger sister of the friend & brother’s best friend trope so eye think that counts for something!!!! also the fl was super smart and def knew her worth even tho she wavered a bit bc ml tugged @ her heartstrings too many times to count ;( then ml def knew his shit too bc he was the ceo of his company!! some angst from their past but their dynamic was too GOOD and has me on the edge of my seat bc i loved their banter!! too bad it wasn’t as memorable now that i think about it… still a fun, lighthearted read tho!! :D
