Waiting by Xavier Neal

1.0

I lost interest about halfway through this book. It became quite trite and boring. It’s a story about a younger man, who is incredibly immature and constantly gets jealous and throws childish tantrums, and is pretty much directionless as far as a career and life in general, but who desperately wants to get married and have a large family, and the older woman who has her life together but wants a boyfriend. She could have done SO MUCH BETTER than this man-boy. The writing is mediocre, the sex scene descriptions are so unrealistic, mechanical. and borderline comical. I really grew weary of all the swearing. Why was it necessary?! Ugh. Do yourself a favor and don’t read this book.
