Take A Hint, Dani Brown

Take A Hint, Dani Brown by Talia Hibbert
đźš«Did Not Finishđźš«

Lol I really want to have words with the people who said that Take A Hint, Dani Brown was better than Get a Life, Chloe Brown because in all honesty, I think they were just as bad as each other lol.

I get it that non-Muslims and Muslims have relationships but this just all seemed so unrealistic to me. This definitely was not an accurate portrayal of a Muslim family.

Again like Chloe Brown I just found it all so cringe, the guy being the saviour and the girls realising their feelings for them and blah blah blah. I feel like the ending was also the same, where they push the guys away for whatever reason and then realise that they’re actually in love with them and go running back. It didn’t seem authentic at all.

I didn’t even finish the book and it’s definitely getting ditched cos I’ve wasted too much time in the past reading books I didn’t enjoy lol! It was just lacking everything, they both had feelings for one another but didn’t feel like a romance novel.

Anyways, don’t waste your time on the book 👀 if you want a romance book with great Muslim representation then I’d suggest Hana Khan Carries on by @UzmaJalaluddin book or Love from A to Z by @skalibooks!

Soy Tanya. I’m the youngest of the group...and I don’t really know what to say except that I find these things really awkward. When Linda first came to me with this idea of an online bookclub/review page I was 100% down, although I was a little worried and felt like backing out on many occasions as I felt like my reviews were awful - I’m not good with words at all. If anyone was to ask me a year ago how I found a book, I’d reply: “good” - that’s my review done. But being part of this club with such amazing girls has really made me a lot more confident and comfortable. So I’ll forever be grateful. It’s always a laugh when we’re together, we are guaranteed to get side-tracked but our meetings are always productive and a lot of fun. This is just the beginning for us. I like reading all kinds of books from different genres but prefer romance/YA. With work being full on I like feel-good books that are light and easy. I’m currently in the middle of reading a few books lol but sticking to The Zanzibar Wife by Rebecca Rodriquez. Reading for me is a form of escapism, just getting away from the stress of real life and getting lost in book and falling in love with characters. I can’t list my top 5 or even top 10 so here are a few of my all-time favourites: The Sicilian by Mario Puzo To all the boys I’ve loved before by Jenny Han, A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hoseeini, The Forty Rules of Love by Shafa Kelif Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith and Moonlight Over Manhattan by Sarah Morgan.
