The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang
medium-paced
3.0
It was decent, but not my favorite romance. I believe the author is mixed race asian, but as someone who is also mixed race asian the way she described Michael was weird for me. I like getting mixed race rep and feel asian men don't get much rep as the main love interest in the u.s., but it all felt a little fetishize-y especially with having Stella like kdramas and the stereotypical "Asian with a dragon tattoo".
I did appreciate Stella being neurodivergent, specifically autistic, tho as someone who is almost positive I'm also on the spectrum.
Will I read more from this author? Maybe like if I need something that's a little entertaining to fill time but I don't have to be super invested or engaged in/with. I don't think I'd go out of my way to read more or like specifically follow the author for future publications (I don't think this author will be one where I have anticipated releases from).
