The Review
Love and pollination by Mari Jane Law is romantic , sweet and so relatable - a shining star for contemporary romance!
This is my new book crush , by the way. So ,if I sound like a fan , like a maniac , it's because I am!
I am keeping this review spoiler free because I loved it so so much and I want you to read it , just speaking of my favourite character , Perdita, was brought up by nuns and, although she's naive and faith schools in the UK do not have to give sex education (and Perdita never got it), she understands the mechanics of sex and reproduction but nothing on the practical side of things. When she becomes pregnant through her naivete she can't deal with it and, as a coping mechanism, uses botanical references as a form of denial as to what is happening to her.
I wasn't expecting this book to be this good . I was expecting a lot of drama , stupid characters , an even stupider storyline and really , really cheesy romance. Let me tell you right now, it's the entire opposite of that . It was absolutely awesome.
Everything? Well I'd say about 98% of this book is amazing and the other 2% is juste being picky.
Love and pollination grabbed my attention from the very start . The author has this almost flawless way of explaining things and bringing the reader into her world , slowly pulling us in , it never felt like an info dump , although there's ton of information to process.
People will probably pick up on it sooner or later. I have no words to describe how wonderful this book is , pretty much everything about it was absolutely fantastic from writing , world building , characters to plot twists were absolutely masterful.
A must read for sure for all the lovers of contemporary romance.
