Same exact thoughts. I hated zahra’s character so much. The whole wattpad y/n “I’m not like other girls” trope was so painfully obvious and it cringed me so hard how she kept getting everything she wanted so easily despite being such a rude employee 💀 but no that jus made her “special” anyway i thought i was just being a bully but so glad im not the only one feeling like this.

I am so happy someone else felt this way. Honestly I wanted to love it! Especially being a travel agent specializing in Disney destinations I thought this would be right up my alley. But this book was paaainful to read!! Every once in a while cute moments would happen and I was like ok let’s turn this book around and then it would just fall flat. I can fly through a 600+ page book in a few days, and this book took me weeks. I was truly shocked so many people loved it, to the point I was searching out booktubers who usually have the same opinion as me on books and they loved it, I was just like - whaaaat? I DO NOT GET IT?! the only thing it’s good for is the beautiful cover displayed on my book shelf lol

I completely agree. Ugh I’m like dying to finish it. I want to finish it and be done with it! Everything you said is spot in accurate

Omg thank youu!!! I thought I was alone. I really hoped this book would be so good especially with the reviews i was seeing but, I found myself rolling my eyes and cringing most of the time. I realized I hated the book from the first bickering they had in the meeting! Spot on review!!

I totally agree! It was an alright book and I enjoyed it enough to finish but I was so caught of guard when they kissed so fast into the book. My exact reaction was “wait what” and I had to triple check the percent I was at. I thought it might just be because I’m biased and I love slow burn, so i was hoping it would get better. But the tension was already lost and it felt like so many things were being set up but they all fell through. Like the two identities thing had so much potential but that ended so fast and felt like the main plot point finished before half the book was done. I feel like the author was trying to break away from what normally happens with having the dude confess and show that they have good communication but it just wasn’t executed well. The only time I truly enjoyed myself reading the book was when they were walking around Dreamland for a day bc you would think a book about a amusement park would have more amusement park in it rather than office scenes. I did enjoy the ending and thought it was cute but I’m more interested in the brother’s story with his assistant who has been setting up dates for him

Thank you for being honest. I am about at the 80% mark too wondering if I should try to finish because every review I've seen says it's good, but I have the same opinion as you. Now I'm not alone!

OMG THANK YOU. I could not stand this book at all. The guy was overly rude and cringey for no reason right from the beginning (and not even in a cute way) and the girl was made me cringe SO hard. I also hated how the guy kept making sexual comments about the girl every two seconds. Like sir, you just met. Also, I could not get past the text conversations like YIKES. I heard so many great things about this book and how it was a lot of ppl's fav books but I ended up DNFing after 100 pages which imo is far enough into the book for me to judge it.

Same same same 🤣 I had the exact same reaction to their first kiss, and I agree with you on all of this. I just finished the audiobook today. I never skip over spice but I did for this book. I just didn’t care lol

Hi! I am a new subscriber (I found you recently from your ACOTAR reading vlog, which helped me get through my ACOTAR series hangover), and I am now making my way through your videos. I did REALLY love The Fine Print and Terms and Conditions even more, but I think for me it was because it was so happy and I was wanting something that wouldn’t emotionally damage me too much lol plus the books covers are so cute! I totally get that it is super cringey but I think I went in reading the first book with no expectations and luckily I really like it. I am hoping the Dirty Air Series is similarly happy and gushy cuz sometimes you just need that kind of read! But I think Terms and Conditions is better than The Fine Print. I think Iris is such a cool character and I really liked the second story a lot more. I hope you do read the second one and let us know your thoughts! P.S. I love your Book Reviews with the spoilers at the second half of the videos because it’s like we’re discussing the book after reading it haha

i totally agree!! my biggest problem was actually Rowan's character, but the dialogue in general was terrible. i was being generous giving it 3 stars but i need to bump it down now lol

I actually enjoyed this book at the time I read it , BUT it was like one of the first romance books I decided to read outside of fantasy genre. After reading so many now (cuz I’ve been obsessed 👀), especially after reading the devils night series, I can see ur view point. I think if I read this book after reading others that I loved I think I would not care for the story. I completely forgot I even read this and had to check wth it was about, that does not happen to me😂.

YOU DESCRIBED IT PERFECTLY!

This is exactly how I feel about "A Not So Meet Cute" I cannot get in to it. About to DNF.

I love watching your videos, love watching YOU, but imagine my jaw dropping when I saw this video and realized you hated this book. I loved this book! I thought it was just adorable and made me so happy. So sorry you didn’t feel the same way! Crazy how different opinions can be on a book! Love you! Hope your next read is better for you!

The same thing happened to me with love and other words. Everyone's saying it's a 5 five star all time favorite life changing romance and I honestly thought I got the wrong book it was so bad imo that ending was yikes. Also everyone loved elliot but his carachter just made my blood boil with how annoying he was. Its so bizarre when you feel like you're the only one missing something

While watching your video,I can see your frustration and I can feel you totally like I also don't know how to express what went wrong.I was so excited after first few chapters that ok I can see more of these things and then boom...the spice...I mean I thought that the girl will not go that fast into doing stuff as her character was.but then she was something else .And rowan when he told about his past I didn't connect because I didn't like how Zahra reacted like now ok we'll have sex. There are so many things that made me frustrated and IDK how to say those things.And it's very hard for me to DNFing.I read Marriage for One before this and that was so good and I didn't want that book to end.To overcome the overwhelming I was feeling I started this and girl I am not in a very good mood while writing this that's why I searched for a review to see if I am the only one feeling like this about this book but there are only 100 pages left now I can't stop here it's very hard😭.And Rowan didn't do anything for the employees in the Dreamland till now only did some cute things for Zahra that also didn't feel good to me like ohh he is so good.And Zahra is attracted to him like girl what about your kindness and having a good heart .At first I thought that there will be a character development for sure for Rowan but not until now I didn't see enough of Dreamland maybe in the last 100 pages hope for the best...but until now I am disappointed ...there is so much more to say but i don't know how to put it into words

I'm kind of in the same boat with this book! I liked the first half but then the second half felt off and the conflict kind of pissed me off haha. I love the cover SO much and I want it on my shelf but I don't want to spend money on the physical copy. What a shame honestly 😢

You know... when i saw the thumbnail of this video, i instantly hated you for hating on my newest favorite book. I just finished it and because of this book I developed a love for office romance. But I still watched it and girl, everything you said was on point and I didn't see it while reading it because I was so into the plot. I like the idea of the texting thing, brings me back to when I was in junior high when, texting thing happened to me as well. I think the only problem I saw in this book was Rowan thinking of how her lips would look like while wrapped around ho schlong. I was like dude it's too early for such thoughts. Do guys really think that way? I may need to ask some of my dude friends. Lol You're right this book has so much potential. Thank you for shedding some light but ngl I still love Rowan. Lol. Can I have some book recommendations on office romance, that has a really heavy yet sweet tension between characters. Plus spicy sex. Lol

Also you’re the ONLY person all over social media that has the same exact opinions about booktok books as me😭 from beach read to this and many others. Before I start another book I’ll watch your review on them!!

Love you Nikki!! Can you post a book review on The Flock trilogy? I’m halfway through the first one and I have no idea what’s going on. Lol

Totally with you on this one!! I felt like the Second they got together their personalities didnt exsist. I liked them in the beginning because I thought maybe he needs someone who is childish so he can heal his inner child, but she was so disrespectful that Sometimes i had to put the book down and just clear my mind from that secondhand embaresmend. But this book ist way to spicy for me and way to fast with the romance, i mean they got together after ONLY 200 Pages and Kissed way beforehand.

gah i feel the same thing, i just can't stand how Rowan is so selfish and narcissistic like he thinks that he can always get what he wants I know he has his own issues but that's just not how you get the girl

I AGREE! I did finish it pretty quickly but I feel it only was because I wanted to get through it. The concept was SO good. Very good idea wasted IMO.

I barely got through the first 5 chapters and that was that!

tbh i didnt like it either so ur not the only one. i was waiting on ur review and its finally heree. i live for ur vids 💕💕

YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER I was about to buy the series but I didn't thanks to your review honestly this is similar to 'a million kisses in your lifetime' that book was so bad I was trope baited into buying it bookstagram told me it was 'academic rivals' and 'enemies to lovers' that thing is not enemies to lovers 'folk of the air' is I GET SO PISSED WHEN I SEE THAT BOOK ON MY SHELF

*I ordered and canceled. I'll get the love hate duet by Ella Maise now. I'll get it but I'll get the series. I don't want to feel like I don't like this and I don't want to read the rest of the two. So yes I'll buy it in Series*

I’m halfway through this book and I will admit it’s such a quick and enjoyable read, but Zahra is just so cringe!!! A lot of stuff that happen are repetitive, like how many times do I have to be reminded that she’s a kind, outgoing ray of sunshine; and that she gets a rush sent down her spine every second??? Honestly the concept of the “Disney land” atmosphere is new, but the whole romance is so rushed and juvenile…

Have you read or are planning to read Crescent city by SJMaas because the second is coming out soon and I’d love to see a reading Vlog or a book review from you 😢

Same here, I finally caved in to reading this book due to the recommendations and I can say I was so disappointed. It was so hard for me to finish this book, I was going to dnf it at 80% but forced myself to finish. Zahra and Rowan were just not interesting and annoying. Highly disappointed how much hype this book was. 😂

Bro I love this with my whole freaking life!!!!!

I started this book a few months ago and couldn't stand it lol .Left it in the first pages😬

Guys i rreally want to know how many stars you give to this book and is it worth it to read cause i rreally want to buy it but now i dont really know Pls help me

This is so weird XD I am subscribed to two books channels (one of them is you) and when you love a book the other channel hates the book and vice versa! It is weird to see but It’s also very helpful because I can see why or why not people like the books so ya! It’s weird funny and ironic but also really helpful! I hope the next book you read is more entertaining for you lol

ugh!!!!!! Thank god finally someone mentioned this..... I'm currently reading this book ... and after they kissed ...in like second interaction....????I was like dude what the hell??? it's so childish I'm on page 75 but don't wanna read this shit.... but I kinda have to cuz I'm making it's reading vlog..... god help me

Okay i'm glad I'm not the only on the didn't like this. I read it last year and dfn it at 60%

Ok so im glad im not the only one. Urrghh. The insults and conversations felt forced and the strange kiss attack wtf. I was finally done when he decided to dump her in the hospital dying from pneumonia. Cant deal im done!

Sorry, I know I'm too late in the game and this video is 2 years old but like, I am not into reading books until recently. I liked Romance novels so I bought the whole series in a heartbeat. But oh boy! Am I disappointed. I started reading Fine Print in May 2023. I just finished it last night! 🤣because OMG!! 8:16 you pointed out what turned me off about this book and started lazy reading it. Reason why it took me a long break to get back to it! 🤣I mean, seriously? Not in my wildest dream I'll have that kind of conversation with my boss even if we're comfortable with each other. They have not even had any decent interactions to begin with for her to be comfortable in saying those sh*tty lines! 🤣I don't like Zara's character. She's off-putting! The review that I left in Goodreads is that, it lacks the touch of reality! Also the twists and turns and them being broken, trying to heal together felt like out of place! I read books with similar kind of trauma and what not but it was written in a way that it truly connects both characters. Here, it's like, it's all over the place. It certainly lacks depth. I don't know maybe I just had high expectations!🤣

I was about to start 2nd chapter of this book. Now I'm gonna skip... thanks fr the review though

this book was so goood i completed it in one sitting maybe you suprising you didnt like it ...also PLEASE READ THE ELITE KING SERIES BY AMO JONES ITS A DARK ROMANCE I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR REVIEWS ITS MT FAVOURITEEEEEEEEEE SERIES OF ALL TIMESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Lol Nikki. I read a review on the second book and was reaaaaally interested. I rewatch this video and decided to skip book one and go to Terms and Conditions and let me tell you. I LOOOOOOVEEEEEEED IIIIITTTTT. If you give it a try please let us know.

no no no! you got it right! i thought the book worth its hype but oh god, i was struggling to finish it. almost dnf. IT GOT SO MUCH POTENTIAL THOUGH. THE EARLIER PART ARE SO DRAGGING AND CLIMAX JUST WORSE. when coming to the end part, SUDDENLY THEY ARE HAPPY EVER AFTER. NAURRRRRRR WHYYYYYY SO RUSH SUDDENLYYYYYY

It fizzled out in between before their NY trip. And so predictable. I LOVED LAUREN ASHERS DIRTY AIR SERIES SO I HAD GREAAATTT EXPECTATIONS BECAUSE THAT SERIES IS ONE OF THE BEST ✨ but fine print was just too plain. Didn't even feel like her writing honestly.

Oh no I'm afraid to watch. I just ordered the book . I don't want to be disappointed 🤣

I love a good spice, and I liked this book BUT when he says "swallow every last drop" I wanted to DIEEEEEE. STOPPPP.

I kind of felt the same way. I didnt hate it as much but I also didnt unterstand the hype. I thought the Dirty Air Series was so much better than this.

First!! i love your vides!!!

I'm at 80% in this book and I just had to look up rant reviews because I can't believe how popular this is. This romance is so toxic and makes me want to throw up and the shit in the hospital was majorly triggering for me. How is this supposed to be romantic?

Ridiculously amazing is what you were trying to say

I was excited to read this I’m halfway and I hate it 😬… taking me forever to read and I’m disappointed every time I pick it up lol I’m definitely throwing in the towel. Not to mention the dialogue is horrendous and unrealistic. No one talks/thinks like this 🥴

Oh my goddddddd I can’t relate more

Agreed I read this book and was like wtf is this crap and why does anyone like this?!

the second one is better...........trust me

i just finished this book and im disappointed :') i hope the 2nd book is better....??

i dnfed it bc i just hated it!!! like i was so disappointed

i stopped reading halfway 😭

I agree with you 100%!! But I LOVED the second book, you have to give it a try.

I hated this book. I was so annoyed. I stopped it. I read Terms and Conditions. It was much better. Iris and Declan are good characters. Please review the second book.

Hey is it single pov or dual pov??

It really bothered me that the author felt that Zahra had to giggle like a lobotomised dummy for no reason ALL THE TIME. She was a spineless loser and the ultimate cringefest for all womanhood ever. And I am all for serendipitous moments, but the author really really REALLY felt the need to tie everything together from beginning to end. Read this one if you want to barf from practically page 5 onwards.

Not me removing from my TBR🤡

same thoughts, I cringed till the end.

Honestly it was my worst book of 2021 🥶

This book so flat for me. I just couldn't finish it. I didn't keep my interest for long.

The book was so cringe!!! I couldn't even make it too 200 pages

Of course it’s unrealistic it’s a book, go read non fiction!!!!

I hated this book and I was cringing every two seconds

ok , this book gives me CRING ! It's poorly written , Absolutely hate the female character . She lacks class & poise that is much needed in such romance novels . She seems desperate to give her away to the meal baddie . It's giving major red flags , I can fix you & get all your pain away vibes ! I just could not finish this book . Money wasted .. not buying any more of the books from this series . Please do yourself a favor & DO NOT buy this book :) IT'S AS CRINGY AS " PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION "
