Desperately Seeking Roommate by Micalea Smeltzer

5.0

I have a claim on Abel Russo and there is absolutely nothing y'all can do about it. Back off ladies, he's mine!

Lou is in desperate search for a roommate for her 2-bedroom college apartment after her sleazy landlord raises the rent. Abel is in desperate search for a new place to live after his roommate moves his girlfriend in. It seems like fate just might have some ideas for these two.

I absolutely loved this book. I loved the fun and quirkiness in this adorable romance. Abel is an absolute cinnamon roll. He is super sweet and loving. Lou is so amazing. She is unashamed to be who she is. She is this amazing curvy woman. She is quirky and weird and totally okay with that. I loved that Abel is just accepting of her and she is accepting of him. I love that the people around her are super supportive as well. There are so many stories with plus size heroines where the people around her are not supportive of who she is and are wanting her to change. I loved that the people around Lou accept her for who she is and are not trying to change her. I did want more of her friends and more of Abel’s friends. It almost seemed as if they were the only ones sometimes.

But overall, this book was so amazing! I absolutely loved it!
