Audio Book Review: The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang




The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Published: June 2018

Stella Lane is an econometrician for whom, math is the most important thing. For Stella, her relationships with people aren't as great. Nearing her 30s and at the top of her game at work, her parents are encouraging her to find a boyfriend. But Stella has been on a few dates and even had sex, but none of it interests her. She doesn't like to be touched or to be dirty, so that complicates matters as well. On top of all of that, she as Asperger's, a form of autism. In order to get better at sex and people, Stella decides to hire and escort. When she meets Michael, things are a lot different with him. Is it because she is paying him or is it something else?

I absolutely loved this book. So much so that I went out and bought the newest in the series, The Bride Test before I was even finished with this one.

As you may know, I have a child with Autism and reading books fiction or non-fiction that give me a little more insight into what is going on in his brain, always make me feel like I get to know him a little better. Stella doesn't always say and do the right things, but that is what makes her so lovable. I think everyone who reads this book will fall in love with Stella.

The Kiss Quotient had me wanting to know what was going to happen with Stella. Was she going to find the love she wanted? Was her relationship with Michael going to be just temporary? Will Michael stop helping Stella if he finds out about her labels? I laughed, and cried during while listening to this book. I was happy for Stella for going for what she wanted and making her own happiness.

I think I've found a new favorite author!! I will read everything she writes.
