The Ex Talk

While the premise seems great, the main characters were just not interesting enough for you to be invested in what becomes of them. The humour was clichéd and not effective. Good premise, undoubtedly, but poor execution and story telling. Didn't enjoy it one bit.

What is a good book

Nice summer read, sets quick, Dominic's carácter is loveable, Shay's thought might most definitely get on your nerves because of her stubborn submissiveness and the way she wants to be a dependant independent person (yes I know what I wrote, but you'll get It once you read It). Therefore am I giving the book 4 stars, the setting and most characters are great but the FMP spoils things for me most of the time.

In this enemies to lovers read we follow the life of Shay Goldstein, radio producer. Radio is everything to Shay and her dream is to be on air. Which is why when cocky Dominic Yun rocks up, flashing his fancy degree and getting air time he instantly becomes the enemy. In a series of events these two somehow end up cohosting their own show, however, to do so they are having to pretend to be exes. What could possibly go wrong?I LOVED this book. Is it possible to give a book a five star review purely because of the amount of Buffy the Vampire Slayer references? No? Well it’s also incredibly well written, absolutely hilarious and filled with the glorious enemies to lovers sexual tension. What I also really liked about this book was the acknowledgement of loss and grief, as someone who recently lost a parent I felt I really related to Shay and her struggles. Can't recommend enough.

Livro não cativa o leitor, personagens superficiais e desinteressantes — mesmo a autora tentou ao máximo criar um conflito externo (não conseguiu). Se você, assim como eu leu esse livro e achou que faltava algo (ou que faltava tudo) recomendo a leitura de Beach Read, mesmo sendo classificado como uma comédia romântica, sua autora Emily Henry desenvolveu uma obra que não foca apenas na “nata” do que os personagens tem a oferecer — em vez disso cria um romance que se desenvolve lentamente mas que ainda te deixa na beira da cadeira antecipando a próxima página. Além de focar nos próprios problemas pessoais dos personagens e instigar diversas conversas sobre assuntos muitas vezes delicados.
