A review by brittneybush
The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang

fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
I was hoping for a fast-paced, breezy romance featuring a trope I enjoy (fake dating) with a bonus of neuroatypical representation. (I am neuroatypical myself, but not autistic.) 

I got all that! Unfortunately I also a male lead who is increasingly controlling and violent, and these behaviors presented as romance. I cannot recommend this book, and especially recommend you do not read it if you are a survivor of a controlling or abusive relationship.
