jaybklover 's review for:
The Roommate
by Rosie Danan
I was pretty disappointed because this book contains one of my least favorite tropes - "before you I had only bad sex". I hate this.
On the other hand it has forced proximity which I love.
Also Claire was insufferable. I hated her after their grocery shopping where she was throwing out his snacks out of the cart. why are you trying to control other people's bodies?
Also the fact that he's a porn star and he don't work in porn for this whole book? isn't that the point? I want to read about healthy boundaries and communication. I wanted for them to discuss his job without unnecessary jealousy.
This book tries to be sex positive, but at the same time shows so much stigma around it (which is realistic, but idc).
And I'm not a fan of big gestures in books so that didn't work for me either.
I think for me this is borderline WF, even though romance is a big part of the story.
