The Design of Us by Sajni Patel
3.25
I really enjoyed the heart of this book—accidental fake dating on vacation in Hawaii—but it was pretty slow paced, VERY slow burn (with closed-door payoff), and seemed to take me ages to read.
It’s a hard one because literally I enjoyed almost all of the individual parts, but as a whole it was just a bit blah when all was said and done. Like the ending was very satisfying, but it took me so long to get there lol. Also I can’t lie, it felt like I waited so long for them to kiss the tension was literally boiling over…and then the door was closed on me twice…which was rough.
As for the audiobook, Soneela Nankani is one of my favorite contemporary romance narrators, so literally NO notes. Vikas Adam on the other hand left a bit to be desired—I really did not like his voice for the heroine. She sounded so young, especially compared so Nankani’s flawless performance.
⭐️⭐️⭐️.25/5 🌶️/5
I received a free audiobook from PRHaudio. All opinions are honest and my own.
