This Love Story Will Self-Destruct by Leslie Cohen

4.0

3.75 stars (Can I do that?)

Thoroughly enjoyed her writing style. A kind of rambly stream-of-consciousness that makes the prose and descriptions feel very sincere and genuine. Not at all surprised to read post-script that the author's bio closely matches Eve's. No one can write descriptions with such nuance and peppered with NYC's delightful little idiosyncracies in a way that gives it so much depth without actually having lived in the city.

For the sake of offering a critique, I wish there was more dialogue. It moved too quickly from scene to scene. So much time passes between chapters that I feel like I don't get enough time to experience being with Eve and Ben. Also, Ben's internal narrative was well fleshed out and carried a suitably different flavour to Eve's (Which I fully appreciate how difficult this is to do when write from multi perspectives) but his internal personality didn't quite match his external.
