Goodness...it would appear I am definitely in the minority with this book. I had such high hopes and after reading a string of one-star books, I was excited for this. But alas - I could not get into it...I was crazy bored and I found this to be so so slow.

Leon's chapters are written so differently that my brain just wanted to fast forward through them (the dialogue has no quotes, and when he was simply thinking, the sentences were incomplete. I kept thinking, "even my inside voice has complete thoughts!").

Perhaps if I had read some good books recently I would have powered through to see if it gets any better...but at this point, life's too short for another dud.

Dit was zo’n schattig boek niet normaal. Dit was zo zo zo schattig. De notes eerst en Leon was zo knap in mijn hoofd. Omg. Er waren helemaal geen smut scenes. En het was niet zo’n diep boek maar wel heel licht en schattig en leuk. En dat er allemaal side characters waren en de vrienden en dat die op het einde ook allemaal meehielpen aan het aanzoek. Was eig best wel cliché boek en ook wel raar dat je akkoord gaat om met iemand een bed te delen die je nog nooit hebt ontmoet. Ik vond het echt ook heel leuk hoe ze steeds meer van elkaar te weten kwamen over of ze haast hadden naar werk of dat Leon een hele langzame lezer was en hoe zij of hij zijn eitje wilde etc etc etc en daarna kwamen de sticky notes. Zo cute. Dat ze toch gingen communiceren. En ze haalden echt het beste uit elkaar naar boven.
