Nate Plus One

Another really quick read and another one that I really loved! I hope I can carry on with these quick reads that I really love. This one was a heartfelt, sweet read about two friends falling in love.

As I've said before, I'm just not really a fan of the friends-to-lovers but I think it's due to how it's normally written. Luckily it wasn't the case in Nate Plus One. I very much enjoyed the trope and definitely would've liked the book to have been longer. Even if it would just have been more South African things to fill the pages.

Speaking of South African things, I loved seeing all the nods and little things – even if they didn't come down to Cape Town (I live near Cape Town and I don't remember Durban very well).

I laughed when they heard ‘robots' and were very confused because, yes, we do call traffic lights robots. (don't ask why, I don't know why). I loved they included a braai (like a barbeque, but just better) but I would have loved the braai to be longer – both as in more written and chronologically longer. It's a running joke that braais take forever. You could go to a friend's house at 2pm and only eat the cookd food around 11pm. I'm quite serious
