Rezensionen zu The Night Before I Knew Him

The book has an interesting plot. There is suspense that keeps you curious about the characters' fates. The storyline involving the avoidance or acknowledgment of feelings drags on a bit, but so far, it hasn't put me off. There is still much to discover about the characters' pasts and their potential futures, which keeps interest in the book alive. The characters seem well-crafted, and their personalities are intriguing. The novel's protagonist seems quite naive and immature, but she is an intern, so perhaps it is simply a case of 'youth.' I hope her character evolves into a self-aware woman.

Highly entertaining, but sometimes you will question how our main female character can not say anything when her boss is being so hot and cold with their emotions. Also if my roommate had ever violated my room to sleep with some random guy when she had a room of her own to do that, I 💯 would have been kicking her out. So disrespectful. The fact her second roommate talks her down from doing exactly that and tried to gaslit her about how crazy it was made me question if their girl comes from an abusive home because you would need to be a custom to such treatment to continue to allow it that be happening.

Interesting, funny and dramatic. I like the concept and the story line although the drama is still the main concept and sometimes it can be a lot and you need to stop for a (little) breathe. But apart from that, I like this book, it is no boring so far and it keeps you in suspense you cannot resist to wait for the next chapter and see how things are going to be, because you think the characters are going to react in a way but every time they act completely different from what you thought, and I like that. Very unique.

This is an absolute good read! Once I started reading, I, really, just could not stop. Very Good work! I am very appreciative of the story line and having both perspectives of the main character's. The thought processes of June and of Hermes gave the story of special touch. Especially, because they both are crazy about each other from tge start .😄 I love how naturally human the characters feel lol. It was super intriguing from the very start.

We’re wired to look for patterns and feel in control—like we’re predicting what’s coming next. Then something flips the script, and suddenly you realize the rules were never what you thought. It creates that double feeling: fun because it’s surprising, and unsettling because it exposes how limited our control really is. A lot of great storytelling—and even games or puzzles—play with that tension. They let you feel in charge just long enough that the twist actually means something. Without that illusion of control, the surprise wouldn’t land as hard. And zooming out a bit, it does echo something real: we make plans, build narratives about our lives, but there are always bigger systems, randomness, and other people shaping outcomes in ways we can’t fully steer.

I like this novel plot. The intensity... the excitement... the wondering what is going to be next ... there is never a dull moment for June.. I like the fact that you can't really see what's coming next..... you want to keep reading ... you want to know so you keep going. I love the story line. Something different and exciting. The writter keeps the audience glued and interested...I can't wait for the next chapters excitement!!! Another late night 😄 🥰 😅

Love the novel so much,i like the fact that its not predictable,like you can never know what you are going to read next.I enjoyed the conversations between June and Leila,when June found her other friend having sex on her bed😂.The curses were hilarious,especially coming from June.I think June should stand up fo her self and stop being rage baited by Hermes.The chapters are a lot though,maybe if both their versions were on the same chapter it would've been better.Big ups to the author its a very captivating novel!!

Loving it so far. Excited to see where the story leads to. It’s very well written. Although I wish the chapters were a bit longer or had June’s and Hermes’ point of views from the same moment in the same chapter. I also like the additional side events and curious to find out what’s happened to Hermes’ father, and also about his past as there’s clearly something there that has made him the way he is.

It is a good story juat don't like the long wait to get coins to read the next chapter...very much an adult audience book might be a little bit to much sometimes. Overal a good novel and will like te see what the ending brings . B b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b

Keeps the listener active and when the attention is about to drift the plot twists. There is not a lot of backstory from either of the main characters while the story focuses on their interaction. The names of the co worker and best friends seem to get mixed up sometimes but other than that, the text is coherent and the story is proceeding. Now I only have 20 words left to get this bonus and to be honest, 80 words is a long review
