Review of 'The kiss quotient' on 'Storygraph'

No rating

Great concept, not so great execution.

I hate giving an own voices book a low rating, especially when the world needs more books featuring disabled or neuro-diverse characters.

Maybe I just don't do romance novels, but ack! One good conversation would have eliminated all the tiresome emotional back and forth. I know insecurities don't fade over night, but if they're that crazy about each other, the least they could do is take each other's words seriously.
