Just One Taste

2.0

adventurous funny lighthearted medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Complicated

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I didn't find the bond/romance between the characters believable. Maybe believable isn't the right word, but it felt like they went from disliking each other to romance pretty quickly. I didn't feel the yearning-it just sort of felt forced.

DID NOT FINISH: 15%

I didn't like the way the author spoke about diversity. The way the author described characters by basically only their race made me uncomfortable. Upon seeing other reviews, it doesnt seem to get better, and some not great/not well written nonbinary comments are made. The main characters are just sort of insufferable so far too, and I'm also seeing that it doesn't get better. I think I'll pass. Time to yeet it to a little free library
