“The Bride Test” by Helen Hoang Review

The Bride Test is the second book in the kiss quotient series. It follows Esme a Vietnamese woman who comes to America for the summer as a marriage prospect . She is a hardworking single mother who single-handedly provides for her daughter, mother and grandmother. So when a woman presents her with the opportunity to marry her son . She thinks why not.

Khai, the marriage prospect is the second son. He has Autism spectrum disorder and lives his life in routine and solitude. So imagine his surprise when his mother tells him she has arranged a marriage for him.

He is attracted to Esme but not willing to enter a relationship with her. As they continue to live together, he finds that perhaps having someone by one’s side is nice and comfortable.

This book was so easy to read. I finished it in one sitting. I love the depiction and growth of the characters . The representation of autism was good as I learnt more about the syndrome. I rate it 4/5🌟
