The Hating Game by Sally Thorne
2.0
I was pretty disappointed with this story and the movie. I wanted so badly to love it, and I see that some do! However, I struggled to like the characters. Everything felt so incredibly rushed. The enemies to lovers trope was great and I loved the premise of being in publishing but we never actually saw the characters go head to head at the job. They just hated each other from the beginning.
Then, all of a sudden, they are making out in an elevator. That scene felt rushed but also the fact that Lucy felt like he was a predator and then was cool about his tongue being down her throat left me a tad uncomfy.
Again, I liked these characters but I needed them way more fleshed out. Because of that, all of their development felt rushed. I wanted a bit more than one conversation at the wedding but I did love the stand off between Lucy and Anthony. Fabulous.
And the ending! I wanted to see her interview. She worked for it the entire book and then….nada.
