A review by lilireads_
Bloom by Helen Hardt

1.0

I received this ARC from NetGalley. All thoughts are my own.

To be honest, I’m disappointed. This book was full of tropes I find cringey, including insta-lust/insta-love. I found the main character annoying and selfish; she gets upset when anyone else is happy just because she recently got out of a relationship. The MMC was also flat, and completely unrealistic. I really disliked how quickly this progressed considering the main characters knew literally nothing about each other. Also, it wasn’t very spicy at all, which is odd considering that is the major theme of the book. I appreciate the ARC, but unfortunately, this just wasn’t it for me.
