Tjedan ćemo započeti s jednim nepopularnim mišljenjem. Ljubavna obmana u Španjolskoj mi je bolja. Znam da svi hvale ovu, ali mene nije oduševila. Dobra je, no moram priznati da sam očekivala više.
Rosie i Lucas simpatični su likovi čiji se životi isprepletu kada se Rosie nenajavljeno useli u prijateljičin stan zbog urušavanja stropa u svom, a Lucas najavljeno dođe na svom proputovanju Amerikom. Oboje su me osvojili kao likovi, simpatični su, smiješni i zabavni. Kemija je tu, ali će vam trebati 350 stranica da dođete do nje.
I sama priča je dobro krenula da bi onda negdje oko polovice postala dosta mlaka i razvučena. Sviđa mi se, ali za moj ukus je ipak prespora. Volite li slow burn (ali stvarno slow) i u potrazi ste za nekom knjigom uz koju ćete se u potpunosti opustiti i osjećati dobro svakako bacite oko na ovu knjigu.

The American Roommate Experiment
Elena Armas
We’ll start the week with an unpopular opinion. The Spanish Love Deception was better. I know everyone praises this one, but it didn’t blow me away. It’s good, but I have to admit that I expected more.
Rosie and Lucas are very likeable characters whose lives intertwine when Rosie moves into her friend’s apartment unannounced due to a collapsed ceiling in hers, and Lucas arrives announced on his trip through America. They both won me over as characters, they are likeable, funny and entertaining. The chemistry is there, but it will take you 350 pages to get to it.
The story itself started well, but then halfway through it became quite weak. I like it, but it’s still too slow for my taste. If you like slow burn and are looking for a book with which you will completely relax and feel good, definitely take a look at this one.
