The Way I Hate Him - Likewise Book Reviews

"WHEW I loved this one! there was so superb spice (I still thinking about it haha) - a brother’s rival, music, age gap sorta novel! despite being a spicy, sweet romance - it was also a little darker - grief is a central theme (make sure to check those TWs) I liked Hattie and Hayes - I sort of wish that they had communicated a bit more as a couple when the conflict came up but I really appreciated that they worked through it! all in all I really enjoyed it - again!! that spice! hayes!!"

"The second book is way better 🤪"

"It has a good plot and everything, but for like 30-40% of the book, it got pretty boring to me since nothing was really happening until the end. "

"<br/><br/>Okay, so I did it; yup, with all the hype surrounding this book. I dove in and freaking LOVED IT! <br/><br/>Hayes is one of my top book boyfriends, and Hattie is a hoot; she is a nut job, stubborn, loyal, and fierce, and I could see being best friends with the girl. Five percent in, I must have laughed a good twelve times. <br/><br/><br/>My god, the things Hayes did for Hattie. He melted my heart and turned it into a puddle—all efforts to put a smile on Hattie’s face. Don’t get me wrong, as much as I love Hayes, he loves to self-sabotage himself. Totally frustrating. <br/><br/>I love a good brother best friend but add enemies to lovers to the mix. With a small town, age gap, and rockstar romance, you have a masterpiece. <br/><br/><br/>Some parts made me cry like a baby, and I didn't expect it! I love when that happens."

"This is probably my 2nd favorite Meghan Quinn book after A Long Time Coming. The romance/spice was great but Hattie's grief journey was my favorite part. Something about that little girl losing her mom really got me lol."
