Lizzie & Dante by Mary Bly
"Review of the audio book, read by Carlotta Brentan.

I remember a friend recommending this book to me a couple of years ago. I don’t remember what they told me about it but since I’m only rating it 3 stars, and in my mind it’s more like 2.5 stars, I doubt that was their opinion.

I never fell in love with any of the characters. Most of the time they were rather annoying. And the whole “I’m not falling in love� to instalove/lust in zero to sixty just didn’t work for me.

I wonder if I should have tried to read the book rather than listen to it…the narrator read the songs instead of even attempting to sing them annoyed me."

A lot of tropes I don’t like. It was cute tho don’t get me wrong. I loved all the pet names. It was super spicy for a small town romance tho. Not a fan of bully to lovers tho ]]>

3.5 stars. It had every trope I love. Even tho I’m not the biggest fan of second chance and friends to lovers. I said cowboys? Bi awakening? Mmf? Sign me up right now. Honestly it lost points bc of the repeated usage of some words that drove me crazy. Like if I heard Callie say the words primal one more time. Also the weird poetry verse sentences were crazy too. ]]>

I think the sibling dynamic is interesting? Now that yukio isn’t a weak boy, idk if I am a fan of this new personality of his? That he’s kept hidden from his brother this entire time? ]]>
