The Intimacy Experiment is a great sequel to The Roommate, I personally enjoyed this story more! You can definitely read this book as a stand-alone but I do think it is enhanced by reading The Roommate first. Naomi is a strong character who knows herself and what she wants while also learning that being vulnerable and relying on others does not make her weak. Rabbi Ethan Cohen is a cinnamon roll of a man who is sweet, sturdy, and just what’s to love and support his community. These two make a wonderful pair while providing representation of the sex work/education field as well as Judaism.
