The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang

3.0

For being a book about a woman hiring a man for sex, it took a long time for the sex to happen, although once it did, it was pretty spicy. I didn't have a problem with that, as I knew that's what I was signing up for. 

I did have a problem with casual (and sometimes not so casual) sexism throughout. Like how Michael just starts driving her around in her car. Or picks her up and carries her around like she's a doll. Or kisses her without her consent, after he just punched a guy for doing the same. I nearly stopped reading it at 90% of the way through because of that. 

There was a lot that I enjoyed. The family dynamics were overall great, Stella becoming more self-assured and assertive, but yeah. There were also big giant flaws.
