I'm not genuinely a huge fan of chick-lit with multiple perspectives. But this book sounded intriguing anyway so I decided to check it out. Glad I did.
The Flatshare shows how serious these books can be. With a heavy focus on previous emotional abuse and with Leon's brother in prison on false charges there is a lot of emotional turmoil. But there's a lot of humour too. I loved their relationship being built from notes and they were both such likeable characters.
Though this book isn't hugely long, it does have a lot going on. That made it feel slow in places but I still couldn't put the book down so it wasn't bad. Just a lot.
I'm still not sure what genre I would consider this. I said chick-lit but others say romance and I'm not sure it fits either. I think this might just be adult contemporary which isn't a term I see used much. But honestly? If they're like this book then it works.
If you're looking for a romance that starts a little different then I recommend this book.
