Yeah miscommunication trope isn't my favorite but if it's balanced with quirky humour, I'm willing to give it a try.

Also, I'm okay with no/ minimal spice as long as the plot hooks me in!

Yeah, imo this was the very definition of what I'd consider a "young adult" book. Feeling awkward, unsure, frustrated, not knowing what you really want or what you're doing, dealing with parents' expectations (esp considering this is an Asian household), making friends, falling in love, social media... all the shit that comes with growing up. It's told in the voice of the ML, and he's the living definition of "he's confused but he's got the spirit" smiley36 gave off golden retriever vibes at times smiley36smiley27

Okay so, has anyone read The Soulmate Equation by Christina Lauren coz I swear, I swear, if this FL is going to behave the way I think she's gonna behave... it's gonna really piss me off šŸ˜‘

Pls book gods, lend your blessings to this book and let this get sorted within the next 5 pages. It was so good till now. Yeah sure she was a bit wonky at the beginning, but she was panicking. I can understand that. I did understand that! I gave her all my understanding and started to love her. Pls don't let her get all dramatic and idiotic and ruin this rn. I swear that's just gonna be so stupid

"For do but note a wild and wanton herd

Or race of youthful and unhandled colts

Fetching mad bounds, bellowing and neighing loud,

Which is the hot condition of their blood,

If they but hear perchance a trumpet sound,

Or any air of music touch their ears,

You shall perceive them make a mutual stand,

Their savage eyes turned to a modest gaze

By the sweet power of music: Therefore, the poet

Did feign that Orpheus drew trees, stones, and floods,

Since naught so stockish, hard, and full of rage

But music for the time doth change his nature."

Sharing a quote before I return the book:


I roll my eyes. ā€œYou think you’re so smooth, Mr. James.ā€

ā€œI’m smoother than f ucking silk, Mrs. James. It’s how I landed you, right?ā€ He trails kisses over my jawline.

ā€œActually, I think you landed me with your huge ā€¦ā€ I sink my teeth into my bottom lip.

He arches an eyebrow at me. ā€œBank balance?ā€

I swat him on the arm and fake a horrified gasp. ā€œI was going to say your hugeā€”ā€

ā€œPenthouse?ā€ he offers.

I narrow my eyes. ā€œNo. Your giant-ass ego.ā€
