The Kiss Quotient

After hearing all the hype I decided to give this a try, and while the premise was cute and it was nice to see a relatable character with autism for once, the writing style was too much for me to overlook. This book read like bad fanfiction and the dialogue was unrealistic. I get what the author was aiming for here, but it felt forced at times.

The plot dragged at the beginning to establish the characters, but then suddenly everything was forced into the last three chapters. I didn't feel like Stella or Michael had any real dimension. They felt paperlike and artificial to me, and I couldn't imagine real, flesh-and-blood people as these characters.

I just did not enjoy the “possessive protector” role that Michael suddenly took on, and I was not expecting the detailed sex scenes either. I honestly thought this was going to be more of a rom-com style book, not a Silicon Valley 50 Shades of Grey. That's my fault though, for not reading reviews beforehand.

All in all, it's not something I would recommend or re-read.
