The Flatshare
by Beth O'Leary
It's hard to give this book a proper review. The beginning is just......so......slow.......I know, character development and all that, but PEOPLE, I almost entered a coma. The ONLY THING that kept me going was the assurance from my bookstagram friends that this would all be worth it.
It WAS worth it, but I'm still ridiculously indignant about the first half. This book hard core FAILED my 30% rule. The main characters don't even meet until 40% through the book and forget about any chemistry before then. And yet, still a book worth reading.
The SECOND half of this book is wonderful! There is decent chemistry, a great story, wonderful friendships, and a very realistic happy ending. I really wish an editor had axed 25% of the beginning of this book, but you should still read it.
STEAM LEVEL: Rated PG-13
♥️ Did you read this book? What did you think of the pacing?
