That neighbor of ours by: GreekPie
Requested by: GreekPie

I liked the story but in all honest, it felt a little boring to me personally. The plot felt a little bit more rushed than what I see in contemporary novels and I felt like each scene was hurried along to have the main characters meet their new neighbor.

I like how the main female character is Hispanic but I feel like we don't see her speak Spanish or bring up her home country and traditions aside from maybe a couple times in the first chapter. I want to see more of her background rather than just saying she's Hispanic and then moving on to the next scene.

Plus you bring up being Canadian and a little of what being Canadian is like way too much. Like we get it, her husband is Canadian and she moved to Canada. Tone down on mentioning Canadian like every two seconds because it's not needed except maybe like once in the beginning of the novel. Plus her and husband fighting about the noise and not do anything when they could have just walked over to their neighbor to tell him to turn it down just seems questionable because if she's pregnant and needs rest, wouldn't they have talked to him by now about the noise.

Plus we get a huge info dump on their back story on how they met way too early in the story. Like we don't need that big of an info dump to help set up the story or the plot.

Overall it has potential, just try to pace the story and plot a little better and try avoid saying Canadian a lot because really it isn't needed.

Thanks for letting me review your book.
