miche29 's review for:

The Roommate by Kiersten Modglin
3.0
dark emotional fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Wesley and Addison Gates are on the brink of divorce. Add in overwhelming debt and a demanding career and Wes is struggling! Wes runs into an old classmate who offers a place to stay and this couldn't have happened at a better time 

But Wes quickly realizes that moving in with Elias also brings mood swings, strange events and an intrusion on his privacy. Now Wes has to figure out if he will ever be able to leave? 

What I loved...
📚 As with every KM novel, this moves at lightning speed and is an easy, quick weekend read 

What I didn't love...
📚 As the "Queen of Twists", this offering from KM felt a little underwhelming and predictable. 
📚 I didn't quite understand some of Elias' actions... the lying for no reason made him untrustworthy which contradicted his ultimate desire to work his way into Wes' life
📚 Wes and Addy constantly bickering about why their marriage was failing became repetitive and made both characters a bit unlikeable
