The Layover

Not my thing at all. Maybe I'm just too pessimistic but I thought this was wildly unrealistic, and I feel like if the characters existed, they'd break up so fast. In what world do you fall in love with someone within two hours and stay together? Blind trust and adoration are always a recipe for disaster.

Moreover, the writing style was weird, particularly the descriptions, some of which were downright offensive (« the dwarf of a doctor » like c'mon, I get this was 2017, but still!) and maybe that's just me, but I thought the author's internalised homophobia was showing in some of the characters' opinions, which are never addressed or acknowledged as wrong.

If you love a sickly-sweet love at first sight romance with no other plot, maybe you'll like this, though.

[4.5] i came in fully expecting Roe Horvat's glorious smut and got an emotionally packed punch to the gut instead that i didn't see coming at all BUT I'M NOT COMPLAINING, THIS WAS BRILLIANT
