julesG I am assuming you know who's giving him the slap over the head, by now. 9mo
GingerAntics @julesG oh yeah. I finished it last night. That was hilarious! 9mo
GingerAntics @julesG I was actually a little stunned at how little Michael said in that conversation. 🤣😂🤣 I would have thought he would have had a ton to say on pleasing women. The stunned nature of Michael‘s contributions and the basic one word responses were hilarious. 9mo

julesG Yeah, he was stunned. 🤣🤣🤣 9mo
GingerAntics @julesG I love that conversation entirely. 😂🤣😂 I love the advice Quan gave, honestly. Then here‘s Michael who is still half asleep I think wondering why he‘s been woken up for sex ed. I get the impression, if his wedding had gone differently between Khai and Esme, he would have pulled him aside at some point and given him some pointers. 9mo
julesG Why did I tell you I liked the second one less? 🤔 I was wrong. I liked this one better than the third book. Honestly wondering whether the summer heat boiled my brain 9mo
GingerAntics @julesG 🤣😂🤣 it‘s quite possible. I found this one to be rather charming and sweet. I think both of them were a little clueless about each other, but in the end they probably bonded over that. I would have loved to hear their conversation about Jade, but clearly he loves her in the epilogue. 9mo

Khai needs this one, too. To touch him firmly right in the heart. Then, his family needs to be beat over the head with it.

Oh Khai, I love you so much. You‘re feeling so much, but they tell you there is something wrong with you and you feel nothing. You feel it man. It‘s okay you don‘t show it like they do.

Can we just talk about Khai‘s cousin Sara? I mean, seriously. She‘s a b!tch! She expects Khai to understand her, but doesn‘t give a shite about understanding Khai. His autism is no secret. She‘s fully aware of it. So he can‘t put his feelings into words. His comment “I've been wondering all night what's wrong with this wedding… It's Andy. He should be here” is Khai‘s way of saying Andy would have loved this. He would have wanted to be here.
👇🏻

GingerAntics I miss him. I wish he was here. I wish he was still around. Instead of commiserating with her cousin, “yeah, I miss him too” or “I think he‘s haunting the DJ station over there” or anything remotely caring and loving, she condemns him, her new jack🤬 husband condemns him, and everyone at the table goes with “Khai put his foot in it again,” instead of recognising the one who put their foot in all of it was Sarah. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 9mo
GingerAntics I feel like this entire story would be so different if his family wasn‘t sitting here telling him, sending the message, that he doesn‘t feel emotions, and accepted him as he is and that he expresses and experiences emotions differently. Khai needs the above image to learn that he‘s okay. Sara (and the rest of the family) need the above image to get their heads out of their 🤬es. 9mo
JamieArc I read this a long time ago, but if I remember correctly, I didn‘t love this one as much as the first. I did love Khai, a lot! But the sexual relationship felt a bit problematic, forced and manipulative to me. 9mo
GingerAntics @JamieArc her mother is definitely giving me creepy, manipulative vibes (then again so does his mother if I‘m honest). I guess I can see where it‘s that or stay poor, but it‘s still a little weird. I‘m waiting for her to somehow get diagnosed as on the spectrum in a minute here. 9mo

👀😍 Link in Bio for Review♥️

I love the way Helen Hoang writes & how she develops her love stories. These aren‘t insta-love, these aren‘t stories you can read half heartedly. You are invested in their growth, culture, families, struggles, & it is EVERYTHING.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

The worst thing about new books is they keep us from reading the old ones. These are my Christmas gift. I was really nice this year😂 Did you get some books for Christmas?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Bride Test was super sweet, and I am officially a Helen Hoang fan. I think anyone who was a fan of her first novel will be happy with this read. Khai is a great character and it gives wonderful insight into the mind of someone with autism and how they process their feelings. #thebridetest #botm
