A review by fatima_
The True Love Experiment by Christina Lauren
Did not finish book. Stopped at 54%.
Boring.
Characters weren’t even compatible.
Fizzy is too vulgar and all she cared about so that she doesn’t feel sensual for a while; and Connor was an asshole from the beginning, he fetishised her and turned her down numerous times. He was didn’t care to read any of her works because they're not real books, or whatever, and they never go back to that point or the fact that he’s doing the show only because it’s beneficial for him.
The main thing that made this book so horrible is that all they cared about is to have sex.
Having read some reviews that rated it 1-2 stars, I jumped to chapters 36-8 and… wow… what a supportive friend is Jess. I liked her in ‘The Soulmate Equation’ but… wow… she completely disregarded Fizzy’s concerns and hurt by going like “we all make mistakes in our twenties”! Like who cares. She knew the impact Fizzy’s last relationship damaged her, because she found out that the guy she was dating was already married… so for her to disregard her like that. Once a cheater is always a cheater.
So an absolute waste of time.
