The Many Dates of Indigo by Amber D. Samuel
3.0

Special thanks to the author, publisher, and @netgalley for my advanced readers copy!!!

This was a pretty easy read and although I enjoyed the premise. The book was kind of predictable. It started out well, got a tad boring, then the ending turned out exactly like I expected.

Indigo was about to turn 30 when the pressures of being single started to weigh on her heavily. Everyone around her including her family were more concerned with her not having a man than she was. Soon the pressure from her family in regards to her loneliness made Indigo feel it was time to date again. She was already happy, successful, and independent but now she needed to seal the deal with a man she could start a family and build a life with.

Her choice of men weren’t so great. Nathan seemed nice until he mentioned his addiction. At that point Indigo was ready to run in the other direction. He actually seemed boring compared to Diego so I can see why she didn’t think things would work between the two.

Can we just say I didn’t like Diego from the start though. The whole open relationship thing and him not feeling the need to tell her he had a girlfriend or shall we say girlfriends. I couldn’t understand what she saw in him because he was rude, nonchalant, and a little too carefree for my taste.

Now I knew how things would play out between her and Tate from the beginning. Going from childhood friends to lovers only for Indigo to end things between the two over a kept secret. You could tell they both still had feelings for each other and had some unresolved issues from the past. Especially with how Tate’s attitude changed up when it came to Indigo dating again. It was the dead giveaway and they both annoyed me. Just confess how y’all feel already.

I did have mixed feelings about the ending and what lead up to it. None of the guys were good picks except Tate and I really didn’t like him. The book was kind of meh doesn’t really excite or shock you much with anything that occurred. But overall it was just okay I probably would’ve had different feelings had things not been predictable.
