The Soulmate Equation
by Christina Lauren
emotional
lighthearted
When a book that's supposed to be a two-day read turns into five days, you know it's disappointing. I picked this up because it sounded so great, but it just did not deliver. I'm starting to think that me loving The Unhoneymooners was just a fluke and these authors are not for me.
I wanted a cute story, tension, good banter and I got nothing. I was just bored for most of the time and I couldn't seem to make myself care about the characters because they were just so damn bland. I was exhausted of the FMC being constantly horny at everything the MMC did. The poor man couldn't even scratch his head without the FMC becoming weak in the knees. The way she talked about him wasn't cute or sexy, it was borderline creepy and gross and objectifying. Overall, I felt like the progression of the romance made no sense and was rushed. I just didn't see why they would like each other because there was no chemistry between them. The thing with the FMC's mum added exactly nothing to the story and just made her look like a dumb piggy bank at the end.
The only positive aspect of this book was Fizzy.
