nitroglycerin 's review for:

The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary
4.0

This book surprised me. I was expecting a romcom story telling of how Tiffy and Leon get together through the usual tropes. The common obstacles in the quest for love. You know, fun, fluffy, laugh out loud. And it is.
But it is also so much more. O’Leary manages to tell a story of sexual tension weaved in with the tales of Tiffy and Leon’s individual individual baggage, toxic relationships and injustice.
I’ll be honest, the descriptions of Tiffys past ex and his behaviour towards her were hard to read. Kids these days would say they were triggering. But this didn’t detract from my enjoyment, as they’re wrote in a sensitive way.
To sum up: mostly fun and fluffy. Enjoyed it. Would recommend.
