It was kinds boring. At the end i got kind of frustrated with the overall message of the book, it felt very patronizing

I do NOT like cheaters and I hate that the book sort of ended with a “well, you can’t help who you fall in love with 🤷🏻‍♀️” bullshit. Like you can also NOT cheat on your wife 🙄

.

A lot of the book was telling instead of showing, so by the end of the book I didn’t really feel connected to the characters.

The relationship between the main characters was cute, but if I would’ve been her, I would’ve given up on him a long time ago😭.

I loved this romance - it felt believable and well paced to me - but wasn't a huge fan of either character or their trauma backstory. Gus has some significant adverse childhood experiences that are treated as flavour or quirks. January repeatedly surfaces his phobia, one example of her overall behaviour, which seems wildly unsympathetic. The research storyline was really interesting, and then just dropped off. 

Tl;dr, really good bits, really weird bits, not the most sympathetic character portrayal in my view.

J'ai beaucoup aimé cet ouvrage. Je m'attendais à ce que la traduction ne me plaise pas, mais finalement, elle était très bien. J'avoue que la voix du personnage principal masculin m'a tout de même fait cringe au début. Sinon, à part ça, la narratrice a fait un superbe job. L'auteure est excellente, comme toujours. Je suis fan d'elle et surtout de sa plume (j'ai lu en anglais et écouté en français). J'ai passé un très bon moment et je me sens d'attaque pour lire un autre livre.
