Matzah Ball Surprise by Laura Brown
3.0
FTC DISCLAIMER: I RECEIVED AN E-ARC FROM THE PUBLISHER THROUGH ONE OF A VARIETY OF SOURCES. I VOLUNTARILY OFFER MY HONEST REVIEW OF THE BOOK, THOUGH IT IS NOT EXPECTED OF ME! RECEIPT OF THIS BOOK IN THIS MANNER DOES NOT AFFECT MY OPINION OF THE BOOK OR THE CONTENT OF MY REVIEW!
This was more of a 3.5 star read for me, but not good enough to be a 4 star rating. I really liked the premise of this story, being especially excited for a deaf hero, but unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to my expectations.
I had some issues with both characters to start off with. Levi drove me absolutely nuts because he was so spineless when it came to Monica the ex-fiancée. I hated that entire situation, and it really drug an otherwise great character down for me. However, on the other hand, I honestly could not believe that Gaby would automatically ask Levi out to her parent's house, without knowing a stitch about him! It just didn't work for me, and it really dragged the plot down for me, which I was already struggling to engage with.
All things considered, it was a quick read, and mildly interesting as well, but it just didn't work for this reader.
