A review by indiekay
Sorry, Bro by Taleen Voskuni

2.0

God, I can't remember the last time I've hated a main character as much as I hate this one. I like the concept of the book (though I wish it'd focused more on the Explore Armenia and different suitors concept), and I loved the Armenian representation, but Nar is just SO stuck in her head and self-absorbed. She blames everyone else for all her problems, and uses her family expectations and anxiety as an excuse to be an asshole. 

I found her vaguely irritating in the first part of the book, and annoyed that she doesn't ever seem to actually get to know Erebuni, she just likes the IDEA of her. There were at least 3 things Nar did that made me think "THIS is the thing Erebuni is going tofind out about and get upset", but then the thing Nar actually does at the 3rd act is SO unforgivable. Poor Erebuni needs better standards - she should never have gone back to Nar. Like, I spent the last third of the book saying "God, I hate you so much" out loud multiple times. The fact I didn't DNF this book is a miracle.

Also, I have no idea what the title has to do with anything that happens in the book.

The narrator of the book has a great voice, and I liked the inclusion of the proverbs at the beginning of each chapter.
