Oh The Bride Test! I loved it! 😍 I listened to the audio of this one and I was looking for any excuse to be able to put my headphones on so I could listen to one more chapter. I loved Khai! And the journey he goes on within himself. I loved seeing Esme’s journey from Vietnam to her new life in California, although I won’t lie, I did feel a little bad about the secret she kept from Khai and his family for so long, but then I guess I can kinda see she did! 

I love how Helen Hoang has brilliant diversity and representation in her books, and shows more than just standard romance, in both of these books we’ve seen romance with both a female and a male autistic MC and how romance might see and feel different through their eyes. I also love the family aspects in the books, the family love is strong ❤️
