The American Roommate Experiment by Elena Armas
3.0
I am struggling with how to rate this book. I have so many mixed emotions towards it and feel like 3 stars is not enough but 4 is also too many.
Let’s start with the bad. Right out the gate I was bored. The characters are supposed to be like 30 but the way they acted made them seem so immature and it was super annoying. I almost DNF’d the book after like 60 pages because every time they would talk they were using each other’s name in like every sentence. No. One. Talks. Like. That. It felt super unnatural and I was going insane. It took me 5 days to pick the book back up and get back into it after the first 100 because I was just not into it. Oh also, Cronut you? CRIMINALLY CRINGY.
There were a lot of grammatical errors that I am shocked an editor didn’t catch. It felt like it went on FOREVER at some parts. Like the author needs to please fire her editor or actually get one because oh my god. As the story went on the characters continued to be immature so when the first
