Ok so this was my second time reading the roommate and somehow it was even better then I remember it being. The book was amazing, Clara our little good girl socialite who’s never done anything wrong decides to move across the country for her long time crush only from him to ditch her I am not a fan of Everrett one bite Clara was wayyyy to good for him with the new roommate he just rented his room of their house out to. Then enters Josh said new roommate, josh gives me golden retriever energy and I loved it but josh also happens to be a semi famous porn star known for prioritizing female pleasure. So not only is he a super sweet guy but this man knows what he is doing 🥵. I loved how the book wasn’t your typical romance starting with the fact that one of our leads is a porn star but also how it broke down some of the misconceptions and stereotypes about porn stars as well as addressing the issues that are in the porn industry from unfair and unsafe working conditions to catering to a very specific audience while simultaneously making content that doesn’t appel to half the worlds population. Anyway great and cute but also spicy romance that made me ask myself some really important questions. Definitely recommend. Josh may be my favorite book boyfriend ever. Also to quote Josh Darling “everybody is different but none of them are wrong” honestly this man is perfection I don’t know how else to describe him (chef’s kisses 😘). Have fun reading cuties
