Hard to find the willing suspension of disbelief

Good enough story line for a standard romance novel, but painfully unbelievable. Now, I know most stories of this sort are, but - I couldn’t get past F never once mentioning M to L, when they were at school. Surprise! No. Enough said.

As long as you remember the “willing suspension of disbelief”, this is entertaining. The narrator has a lovely voice, but takes odd pauses mid-sentence. Also, the accents were not good. And why did one character have a NYC accent but her brother did not?

Cute, different premise. Great narrators, but cringeworthy storylines - a whole group discussion about pubic hair? A face off with a bulldozer? Overly detailed sex scenes? Sigh. Throw in the characters’ lack of ability to plainly communicate, and there you have it. I listened to the whole book because I used a credit for it.

The story did not catch my attention. I tried… read the reviews and decided to try again… still not interested. John Cho frequently lacks any inflection or animation. There were aspects of the characters I would have liked in more details; others were not enjoyable. The story had promise but the political line seemed - I don’t know, off? I did finish the book.

I enjoyed Everyone in my family has killed some one so I wanted to hear more from Benjamin Stevenson. This one was a passably interesting concept but wow… it dragged on and then went downhill quickly. I do not recommend it.

The storyline was silly, and the character Robbie annoyed me at first. Marigold had a few “speeches” that went on for far too long. But I got sucked into it! Their conversations were really well written, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
