Description

WANTED: A ROOMMATE Requirements1.Don’t be a smoker. That’s gross.2.Don’t be a jerk. I have no time to deal with your mood swings.3.Clean up after yourself. Is it really so hard to put dirty clothes where they belong?If you meet these qualifications, call me.Sincerely,Desperately Seeking RoommateWhen I put the ad in my university’s newspaper, the last thing I ever expect is for the star football player to respond. From what I know of him, Abel Russo is a womanizer and an absolute jerk.Sadly, he’s the only thing stopping me from being evicted by my annoyingly gleeful landlord. It should be easy enough—there’s no chance we’ll fall for each other. But then he gives me lingering looks, and I might just be looking back. All I wanted was a roommate, but I’m about to get so much more than I bargained for. Read more

Romantic Comedy Perfection
Format: Kindle
5/5 - one of the funniest and sweetest books I’ve read so far. Everything about Desperately Seeking Roommate ticks all the boxes of what I look for in a rom-com story. The chemistry between Lou and Abel was so undeniable. It was so easy to fall in love with Lou. In fact I’d say that thoroughly enjoyed reading from her POV than I did from Abel’s. And that’s saying a lot because normally I find myself enjoying the male lead POV more than the female lead’s since it’s less complicated and idiotic. Lou was such a beautifully written character. From her quirks and insecurities to her confidence and unfiltered mouth, everything made her uniquely her and I enjoyed every page learning about her. The story itself is solid, as with most of Micaela Smeltzer’s books. It wasn’t overly complicated. A simple roommates to friends to lovers scenario but it’s the writing that completely won me over. The dialogue and occasional inner thought monologues had me ripping at the seams with laughter. Smeltzer gave Lou such quick wit and a sharp tongue. Even better, she made Abel capable to roll with Lou’s verbal punches. Like I said, the chemistry was undeniable. I can only wish Lou’s and Abel’s story could be longer, but alas all good things must come to an end. And what a perfect end it was. ... show more

This book was exactly what I wanted in a rom com!
Format: Kindle
Yes! All the yessssss! This book was amazing, quirky, fun, full of life and entertainment. It was hilarious and relatable. The characters were so lovable. I couldn’t get enough. Lou oh Lou, she’s my kind of girl, she’s everything any girl could look up to, she’s fierce and outspoken, she’s totally bada** I freaking love her. I want to be her best friend. Even Miranda gahhh she’s that perfect BFF. And Abel I mean come on he’s everything a girl could want and more. The fact that he gets Lou is so sexy. These two lit up the pages in every way that mattered. I laugh so much, I smiled, I just couldn’t enough. I seriously wanted to step into the book and become part of their world. Best book ever! ... show more

cute and entertaining 3.5 stars
Format: Kindle
This was pretty entertaining. I was a little bothered by how much emphasis was put on about the weight though I understand why the author did it. I thoroughly enjoyed her love food because I can totally relate. She was also super spunky and I caught myself chuckling at some of the craziness this girl comes up with. ... show more

A fun and spirited great read
Format: Kindle
Desperately Seeking Roommate was a great entertaining read. It was funny, spicy, and real. Abel and Lou are down-to-earth, genuine characters. I really enjoyed their interactions and banner. They didn’t apologize for who they were but I also liked how they brought out the best in each other. They complemented each other perfectly. Abel was just the sweetest and Lou was crazy fun. It was an unlikely friendship that grew into something more. I liked seeing the progression of their relationship through Micalea’s superb writing. This book was quirky and fun-I loved it! Smiles and laughter throughout. I do hope Micaela eventually writes a book for Miranda-that girl is amusing. ... show more

So funny!
Format: Kindle
This was my first time reading Micalea's work but OMFG, it was hilarious! This is just some of the hilarity that awaits you: "You might say I don’t need the mani-pedis, which might be true in theory, but I don’t need that kind of negativity from anyone in my life, so you can kindly f@#k off." “Nick. I was—I am—a Nick girl. I’d let him break my vagina anytime" "Without the sting of hurt we wouldn’t appreciate the high of happiness. Not everything is rainbows, sunshine, and unicorn farts." Lou is my soul sister. Quirky, impulsive, funny and has no filter - we would be best friends. Abel... a gentle giant. Loyal, loving and romantic. Such a catch. This book was everything I expected it to be, and so much more. If you are unsure whether you want to read it or not, I can tell you - it's so worth it. It's the kind of book that makes you smile, laugh out loud and makes you go "awww". ... show more

The humor in this one >.<
Format: Kindle
Do you need a good laugh and a good plot? Well you’ve come to the right place, right book really. The humor is top notch and the spice is…uff. Love that Lou has such a bright outlook in life, and that confidence she has is what everyone can admire. And having a person like Abel with a gentle disposition is a good change in your typical Mr. Popular. The book is told in two POV so you get to see the antics from each character in a different outlook Trust me you’ll want to keep this one in your kindle library. Bought it right after I finished it from KU. ... show more

Short and sweet
Format: Kindle
If you are looking for something sweet and fun AND FUNNY (because I was laughing out loud!) oh, and not too short and not too long... then this is your book. It is pretty predictable but was totally fun to read so that didn’t put me off at all! Lou is weird and quirky. Abel is the football star. Her quirkinesses is highlighted much more than his football stuff. Which works out pretty good. I do think her weight is highlighted just a tad too much but that’s just my opinion and it works with the story. I just have to say... she can’t be that overweight if she’s gonna wear a crop top. Read this book. It’s fun! ... show more
