Reviews with content warning for Sexual content - The Soulmate Equation

Sometimes the sexual tension commentary was.. Just really poorly done. “He moaned sexually into his soup” or “ The suddenness of his laughter brought on an erotic shock, like a spanking” Who green-lit that?! Some swearing/mention of penises is like it’s trying to be relatable but just misses the mark and seems kinda off to me

i liked the premise of this and the chemistry withe the characters was good. i liked the way that there was no miscommunication trope but

i did not like the ending. the way river completely disappeared and then all the traumatic shit that happened near the end just got brushed over and they got back together after a 5 minute conversation. i also didn’t like that we didn’t get to know the real number just that it wasn’t 98 and above 90; it wasn’t cute just irritatingly ambiguous.

apart from those issues i liked the characters and i liked the pairing, they were cute.

When I started reading this book, I thought it would be one of my favourites. Well, it turns out I was wrong. I really liked the idea of the plot but I felt like it wasn't executed well. Parts of it got boring to the point that I got into a HUGE reading slump where I didn't pick up a book for a month. I'm not sure if this book was the sole reason for that but it definitely played a role in it.

This was a fun read! I love Juno and Jesse's relationship. This was a perfect read for anyone thinking about online dating. Jesse does a compatible test. When she is matched with one of the investors as Soulmates Jesse is terrified.

I absolutely loved this book! I read the spin-off featuring Fizzy as the main character first, so it was interesting to go back in time and see how Jess and River’s love story unfolded. Their chemistry was undeniable, and I couldn’t set this book down while reading! I loved the concept of finding your soulmate through DNA, but

I’m still wondering what Jess and River’s actual compatibility score was.

Either way, the enemies to lovers trope drew me in like it always does, and I loved the contemporary tie-ins to a realistic life, like making ends meet and having kids involved. I would highly recommend this book!

“I haven’t been home in years, but I feel that way with you.”

This was such a fast paced book that I devoured this in just two days. I honestly love the book and I wasn’t even expecting much from it. From an IE standpoint, it was so fun to find a FMC that is a statistician because after taking multiple Statistics class, I wanted to be one (although IE still uses Statistics a lot). The MMC was such a nerdy boy as well once you’ve gotten to know him eventhough he is somewhat of an asshole the first quarter of the book but can easily be forgiven after all the sweet things he’d done afterwards. I just love them both together so much. Soulmate really is the best term to use on them as a couple. Yes, it was a enemy to lovers but you can’t deny those attractions ever since the first date????

The only reason it’s not an outstanding 5 stars is because the ending seems anti-climactic in a way. But if you want some swoon-worthy scenes and willing to just go with the flow, I definitely recommend this book!

Let’s all swoon together every time he does something with Juno because who doesn’t love a man who is good with kids? I didn’t even want kids but I’m willing to have one with River.
