I typically really like Sophie Kinsella books, but something about this book just seems off. I have 7 hours left and I honestly don’t think I’m I haven’t finished this book yet, and I don’t know if I’ll be able to. I’m listening to the audio version. I typically really like Sophie Kinsella books, but something about this book just seems off. I have 7 hours left and I honestly don’t think I’m going to make it thru. Reading the description I thought this was going to be a good, funny read. Two people meet at a retreat, fall in love after only knowing each other for about a week and then have to figure out if they are really compatible and meant to be after said retreat. But the main characters Ava and Matt are just not like able at all. First there is Ava, she is very immature and also a little delusional. She grates my nerves. She is a vegetarian when she discovers Matt is not her 1st thought is to change that about him. What? Then when she is about to meet Matt’s parents she blurts out if we wants children. She knows nothing about this man and they’ve been on like one date and she just blurts this out because she about to meet his parents who are her non existent children’s grandparents. She’s just weird. Then her dog. Her dog destroys other peoples things, takes peoples food and is just outright misbehaving and she acts like it’s cute or tries to justify it. I have pets who I love to death, but she was ridiculous when it came to her dog Harold. Her friends are annoying also and are equally weird and immature. When Ava and Matt are returning from the retreat. They wanted to hang out and get to know each other a little bit. Ava’s friends and dog surprise her at the airport, to pick her up. This their first encounter with Matt and they were saying ridiculous, humiliating things that no adult with common sense would ever do or say. I think a lot of times when Sophie Kinsella goes for quirky characters they come off more as dumb and irritating. The dialogue just isn’t realistic.
Now on to Matt. He’s just boring, bland and has no charisma at all whatsoever. When the book first started he seemed like the total opposite. ...more "
