I didn't love #1 and i'm not loving #2 and atp... I don't wanna just finish each book to give them 3 stars 🫡
Thank you to Berkley for a chance to read an arc this book! 🖤
DNF 24% — NOOOOOO
Overall Thoughts 💭:
The beginning of this book was chaotic and insane. We go from subsaharan Africa, to an alien spacecraft, to a planet with long extinct dinosaurs and foliage from different millennia's. I love alien romances and I enjoyed the Mead Mishaps series so I was excited to start reading this!
I struggled getting into this book I started with the digital arc and then I moved to a audiobook arc and while I would manage to get through more of the book with the audio arc, it took so long for me to finally get to that moment where I understood what was going on and also cared what was going on.
I also hoped for more relationship development but from the moment the nano-insta love thing was explained I was a bit overwhelmed and over it.

He gave her a nickname immediately and the nickname was bean... dpmo
Marianna and Adam have a chaotic start as Adam is tricked into going to her bedroom by her cousin. I didn't particularly Marianna and Adam's relationship and banter. I felt like while it was good to challenge Marianna at times, his advice came across as condescending and invaliding to her very real feelings and hurt. I didn't feel any chemistry between them and their banter wasn't interesting to read. The plot also failed to intrigue me. I thought this was going to be a marriage of convenience type of book based on the title and summary but there was no "haste" betrothal. Marianna and Adam aren't made to be engaged and the plot instead focuses on a seemingly endless house party with bland guest and an boring ex-fiancé.
DNF : I cannot do 9 hours of a miscommunication plot with two anxious people (i say as someone with anxiety)
