A review by bianchibooks
Under One Roof by Ali Hazelwood

2.0

i'm... not totally sure how I feel about this??? i have not read any other works by the author before so I cannot speak on the repetitive nature of her works people tend to mention in their reviews, for better or for worse, so i have to take this at face-value for what it is:

the characters were kind of bland. i know it is a novella, but i would have liked to seen a little more personality from the two leads besides she works for EPA, he works for organization who i already forgot the name of but hates the EPA. i guess that's what makes the "enemies to lovers" trope (i use the air-quotes very strongly here) fun except i thought it was mostly annoying.

and if i have to hear mara mention how big and huge liam is one more time, i am going to scream. also, the
Spoilerconversation about STIs and protection being mentioned for about half a page and then consequently being ignored to have unprotected sex
was so??? why even start to have the conversation if you're both going to completely ignore it????

don't even get me started on the prologue and the epilogue. why have a prologue if you are going to
Spoilerspoil the "getting together" moment in the last chapter
, and why write an epilogue if you are going to only write two pages about
Spoilergoing grocery shopping together
??? there was no point to either.

$2.99 i will never get back.
