The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary
3.0

In 'Flatshare' by Beth O'Leary, a young woman looks for a place to live after breaking up with her toxic boyfriend and finds an unusual flatshare in which she never really sees her roommate, a young man. There is a lot of telling when the author could have shown instead. The book lacks diversity, too, though it doesn't try to fill in the gaps by tokenizing characters of color, which is somehow better? The story is pretty cute and has a happy, cheesy, and very predictable ending, which didn't fail to warm my heart.
