Okay

For multiple reasons I couldn't get into this book. I didn't care for the premise or the narration. I kept hoping it would get better....
I was given a free copy and have voluntarily left my honest review.

Great Read

Same Page (Bookish Friends To Lovers #1) was a good read by G.L. Tomas. Miami Adewaunmi is new to Providence, RI and wants to finish her Bachelor's degree and find a job. Timothy Ferreiro is a smooth slick talking man who happens to be her new boss. She starts falling for him when she finds out that he has a long distance girlfriend. I really enjoyed reading this book and can't wait to read more by the author.

Cliffhanger

First, there’s no way sleeping with a guy who has a 4 year girlfriend is okay. No one can call that being friends. When he visits the girlfriend there’s no way he can’t understand what is wrong. Finally, the truth had MANY opportunities to be said. So I had a lot of eye rolling moments.
The main characters aren’t given much history or family participation. The supporting characters have no real substance, just dialogue. It’s hard to feel connected to their world.
The heat level is YA. In the end, nothing is accomplished and I was left hanging.
Narration was very good and it carries the story.

Cliffhanger ending

This story features Naima, a first generation Nigerian-American, and Timothy, who work together at the same bookstore in Rhode Island. Timothy has lived there his whole life, and Naima is there to go to university.

For the most part it’s a cute modern tale well performed. That was one of the reasons I felt like listening. Naima has a good character voice, and we learn a lot about Nigerian family life. I enjoyed the cultural b its quite a lot.

Timothy has a long-distance girlfriend, and it’s clear that they are not working out. He and Naima begin fooling around with each other even though he’s not officially broken up with his girl. His friends love her, and they seem like a great couple together, but there’s cheating.

Toward the end, Naima decides to stand up for herself and break it off with Tim. It comes at just the point when he finally breaks up with his girlfriend to be with Naima for real. And as soon as Naima finds out the story ends.

For me as a reader, I did not like the abrupt ending. The book could have gone on for maybe 2 more hours and been a complete novel. That cliffhanger-ish ending might not matter to some readers. I wasn’t one of them. It really soured my experience with this book. Interested readers will be relieved to note that a sequel does exist for Naima and Timothy.

Who this book is for: Fans of contemporary interracial romance, Readers who don’t mind cliffhangers
