A review by elisetu
From Lukov with Love by Mariana Zapata
4.0
I like to start my reviews with good things, but let’s switch it up this time! Why not five starts, easy, for a contemporary romance, it’s too long. Besides the romance (and, possibly spoilery, winning a few competitions), there wasn’t much action. If a book has practically nothing happening, it doesn’t have to have 493 pages (my eyes hurt from this number (is a person who reads 900+ pages of fantasy novels)).
ONTO THE GOOD STUFF!
This was so much fun! I listened to the audiobook and it was a great experience. This is my first time reading a sports romance and honestly, I want more, specifically, I want more Mariana Zapata. She writes with such simplicity and ease, a perfect formula for a romance novel. It has that “one more chapter” crack potential and that’s what we like in this house.
Also, breaking my silence, I read this for the plot (the plot being Ivan Lukov)- this review is TO LUKOV WITH LOVE (cringey winky face).
THE TENSION, THE ANGST, THE BUILD-UP THOSE TWO WERE EVERYTHING!!!
Some of y’all don’t like a slow-burn book BUT LISTEN, I DO, I’M A SLOW-BURN GIRLIE AND I WILL BE TILL THE DAY I DIE. I heard that’s how Mariana Zapata writes usually, and tbh, just give me more!
Amazing to get you out of a reading slump, loveable characters, go pick it up, have a fun time!
