In #TheBrideTest, there's a fairly minor character who's an adult ESL teacher and there's a fairly minor scene where the international students have bubble tea together. It's barely a page or two in what's otherwise a Vietnamese-American romance novel, but that short scene really made me miss old times with adult English learners and think about what kind of teaching I like doing. Also pictured: my emoji fortunetelling class game, like all ESOL teachers have. #thebridetest #bridetestnovel #fiction #kissquotientseries #eslteacherlife #romancenovel #bookblogger #bookstagram #amreading #bookbloggersofinstagram #instaread #readersofinstagram #booklife https://www.instagram.com/p/CU8jZSKl5tq/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today is World Autism Awareness Day 🧩 What do you know about autism? I admit, I don't know much, but my friend @paperrdolls deals with it daily with one of her sons, and I am in constant admiration of her strength and patience as a mom. And she's always educating me & her other followers about both autism & epilepsy, based on experiences with her son. . . For today's post, I wanted to feature two of my favorite romances, which also happen to feature characters on the autism spectrum. If you need some joy in your life, these books will do the trick! (Plus that candle from the @novellyyours Charmingly Ever After box is 😍) . . #FearYourNovel - Puzzle Pieces #BookishStayAtHome - Candle #AllTheBooksApril20 - Bookstagram Love #booksofapr20 - bloom . . #thekissquotient #thebridetest #helenhoang #berkleyromance #novellyyoursfeature #novellyyours #bookishcandle #romancebookstagram #romancebooks #puzzlepieces #bookflatlay #booksilove https://www.instagram.com/p/B-e4YByAgkV/?igshid=9ldy3cujf4bu

❄️ Happy Sunday, Bookworms!! - Qotd: If you could read ANY one upcoming new release RIGHT NOW, what book would you choose?? - I try to stick to my TBR as best as I can, but there are some books that I’m willing to just drop EVERYTHING to read! *The Bride Test* by Helen Hoang is definitely one of those books. 🥰 I LOVED *The Kiss Quotient*, so I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this as well. I may have squealed a little when it arrived in the mail last week, and I’ve spent every available moment this weekend devouring it. (It’s so good!) Definitely worth putting my normal TBR to the side, and I don’t even feel a little guilty. 🤣 Many thanks to @berkleyromance for providing this awesome weekend reading material. 🥰 What book (or books) would you drop everything to read right now?? - The weekend is almost over, friends... did you read anything awesome?? I hope you did! I sat aside *Slayer* to read *The Bride Test*, and I’m itching to get back to it asap. (Another good read!) What about you?? - - 📚 #SockSunday. #AlltheBooksJan19 📚 Favorite Diverse Character. #janinbooks19 📚 First Book in a Series. #bookqueensjan19 - - Have a great Sunday, all!! - - #thebridetest #helenhoang #thekissquotient #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramfeature #currentlyreading #amreading #flatlay #yabooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BskoNLUHjHV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a9m41rm4f8wt

I have been on the most glorious reading binge this month. The Bride Test was both a lovely romance and an immigrant story. Books like this one are the reason why I ride or die the romance genre. * * * I left a more complete review on my blog and, like, everywhere else. Just clink the link in my profile. * * #thebridetest #helenhoang #diverseromance #diverselit #bookstagram #bookblr #readthis #readersofinstagram #whatimreading #booksofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/ByFsz_Zg1oT/?igshid=159686fdrco3c

#Book 21 in the #22booksin2022 #challenge is another #BookOfTheMonth club pick - #TheBrideTest by #HelenHoang It’s the first book I’ve successfully read since my concussion. My eyes and head hurt, but not as bad as my first attempt earlier this summer when I barely made it through one chapter. This is the second Helen Hoang book I’ve read and she’s quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. The way she makes #romancenovels w/ #autistic characters makes for an interesting read. NGL, the haircut scene reminded me one of the common plots for Caryl fanfics LOL - Carol giving Daryl a haircut. There are ties to UC Berkeley in the story and as a Cal grad, I was kinda skeptical they’d go to Sproul Hall during the weekend and actually get info since most departments and offices are closed on weekends, and the campus is even quieter during the summer so… August 8th, which also happens to be my dad’s bday, plays a role in the story so that definitely got my eye. #reading #22booksin2022challenge #BOTM #lategram https://www.instagram.com/p/CjHWKkZLsxn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Book Review: The Bride Test - By Helen Hoang (Did it liveup to the hype?)

Book Review: The Bride Test – By Helen Hoang (Did it liveup to the hype?)

“My heart works in a different way, but it’s yours. You’re my one.” Blurb:  Khai Diep has no feelings. Well, he feels irritation when people move his things or contentment when ledgers balance down to the penny, but not big, important emotions—like grief. And love. He thinks he’s defective. His family knows better—that his autism means he just processes emotions differently. When he steadfastly…

Happy #PubDay to #TheHeartPrinciple I actually read this book in the beginning of the month because it was an #EarlyRelease for #BookOfTheMonth I absolutely adored #TheKissQuotient & #TheBrideTest @hhoangwrites is an autobuy author for me. The Heart Principle follows Anna and Quan there is a nuerodiverse heroine and hero with past medical issues. There is the steam that we have come to expect from Hoang's romance novels but let me say this book truly touched me deeply. It was so much more than a "just a romance novel". Hoang tackles the very serious issue of caregiver burnout in a way that was SO relatable to me. I have 5 kids and 2 disabled seniors in my household and most of their care falls to me. So if I'm not changing diapers, then I'm helping with homework, driving my mom to doctor appointments, and making sure my disabled uncle has everything he needs. I love that she gave us the messy and sad that Anna & Quan experienced along with the sexy and heartwarming. This is a book that has stayed with me all month. I loved it. It touched me deeply and I know I will revisit it. 5/5 #BOTMBooks #neurodivergent #Autism #5StarRead #BookReview #RomanceNovel #nerdymama #nerdybooks #POCBookstagrammer #Bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CTQ64lgrmRd/?utm_medium=tumblr

BOOKISH THOUGHTS Helen Hoang is swiftly becoming my auto-buy author. She has published two books till date and I ADORE both of the books. The Bride Test is the second installment of The Kiss Quotient series ( The Kiss Quotient being the first one ) . It is equally cute and sweet and sexy and funny and everything I live for. This is the story of Khai and Esme. We met Khai and his brother Quan in the previous book as the cousins of my dearest Micheal. The story is told in dual POV, which made the reading experience way more entertaining. I should tell you, staying inside Khai's mind is interesting, very VERY interesting. Though, this book deals with some heavy issues, it is dealt with special care and the rest of the book is sunshine. I was constantly grinning or crying at times. This book, just like the book before, played a beautiful melody with my heartstrings. . . This is my book four of the #kindleclearout readathon, completing the prompt for reading a book that deals with disability. . . Enough about me, let's talk about you! What is your most favorite light hearted romance book? . . . . #thebridetest #helenhoang #booksofinstagram #kindlereads #kindleromance #readersgonnaread #bookrecommendations #bestreads #bookreader #bookblogger #indianbookstagram #indianbookstagrammer #unitedbookstagram #booklover #bookaholics #booknerdigan #bookgeek #bookoftheday #ownvoicesbooks #bookfeature #bookreviewer #bookphotography #bookpic #bookporn #mobilephotography #morebooks #bookdragon #bookishcommunity #romancereadersofinstagram (at Vietnam) https://www.instagram.com/p/CF6a5V0AhNH/?igshid=rxoeh7n75yjl

I finished listening to the second book in #thekissquotientseries This one too featured a character with autism. Where The Kiss Quotient dealt with understanding sex and body language from an autistic POV, this one deals more with understanding emotion and relationships. Don’t get me wrong, there were still some pretty steamy scenes, but the overall story was very different. I’m looking forward to third book in the series, The Heart Principle. #bookstagram #audiobookstagram #bookgeek #bookworm #booknerd #bookish #audiobooks #helenhoang #thebridetest #bibliophile #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookaholicsanonymous #bibliotherapy #librarybooks #diversebooks #romancebooks #readmorebooks #quarantinereading #readersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B-1KmJfgVf9/?igshid=1drasyhev1i4s
