The Fallback by Eleanor Goymer
3.0
I’m sad to say that this book missed the mark for me. The blurb, the title and the setup is what really got me interested - but the writing and both MC’s personalities is what made put me off.
I appreciated Rosie’s background (woman in STEM) and that there was a role reversal - SHE was the one that was unsure about a relationship, I didn’t feel a connection to her and felt like she wasn’t someone who could stand on her own.
Mitch just made me angry - I felt like he made Rosie feel less than she was, and expected her to mold to his view and his wants on some occasions. Maybe a POV from him might have helped.
Special thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of this book! All thoughts and opinions are my own.
