“You smell like home,” I tell him after a moment.
“You are home,” he says simply. “The bed, the flat…”
He pauses, the way he always does when he’s looking for enough words for something big.
“It was never home until you were there, Tiffy.”

"Coldness growing low down in stomach. Heart rate up again, and for all the wrong reasons this time. I’m getting angry. That feeling again, the trapped hateful rage at hearing someone you try so hard to love saying the worst things."
leon twomey, the flatshare.

"Life is often simple, but you don’t notice how simple it was until it gets incredibly complicated, like how you never feel grateful for being well until you’re ill, or how you never appreciate your tights drawer until you rip a pair and have no spares.

The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary
Tiffy Moore needs a cheap flat, and fast. Leon Twomey works nights and needs cash. Their friends think they’re crazy, but it’s the perfect solution: Leon occupies the one-bed flat while Tiffy’s at work in the day, and she has the run of the place the rest of the time. But with obsessive ex-boyfriends, demanding clients at work, wrongly imprisoned brothers and, of course, the fact that they still haven’t met yet, they’re about to discover that if you want the perfect home you need to throw the rulebook out the window… (via goodreads)
This was incredible! I knew that people had been raving about it, so I thought there was going to be a good chance that I was going to love it, and I did!
Before I get to my review though, I’m going to throw out there that The Flatshare deals with some pretty heavy stuff around gaslighting and emotional abuse, in addition to a plotline around wrongful imprisonment, so if any of that is likely to hit home, I’d consider looking up a more detailed review, or if you reach out to me I’d be happy to tell you more about them.
Alright, now - why I loved this book: Any romance where the main characters don't actually meet for half the book definitely cares about the individual lives and characterization of its main characters, and I think that the sections where we got to know them outside of their eventual relationship made the relationship better because it was clear that they really did complement each other. Additionally, the emotional journeys for both of the leads were so satisfying - I had so many feelings about Tiffy learning to recognize her ex's abuse, and for Leon trying to get his brother out of jail. Honestly, I thought that this had one of the best actual plots of the romances I've read this year - it had so many side plots and yet they all meshed together so well around the romance.
I also found the romance really compelling, adorable, and heartwarming, and I was so happy that they finally got together. And on top of everything, the book was funny, too!
Overall, I found this absolutely excellent, and I'll be recommending it to basically everyone I know who reads romance, and probably some people who don't.
My Rating: 5/5
