Naomi and Ethan seem like opposites, but in reality, they are very much alike. Even though the book is slow in some places and a bit long, it does develop the characters and situations in ways that are very believable. Overall, The Intimacy Experiment is nice, enjoyable read.

"Naomi and Ethan will test the boundaries of love in this provocative romance from the author of the groundbreaking debut, The Roommate. Naomi Grant has built a life around going against the grain. When the sex-positive start-up she cofounded becomes an international sensation, her responsibilities shift from the bedroom to the boardroom. Ready to conquer new worlds, Naomi wants to extend her educational platform to live lecturing, but despite her long list of qualifications, higher ed won't hire her. Ethan Cohen has recently received two honors: LA Mag named him one of the city's hottest bachelors and he became rabbi of his own synagogue. Taking a gamble in an effort to attract more millennials to the faith, the executive board hired Ethan because of his nontraditional background. Unfortunately, his temple is low on both funds and congregants. The board gives him three months to turn things around or else they'll close the doors of his synagogue for good. Naomi and Ethan join forces to host a buzzy seminar series on Modern Intimacy, the perfect solution to their problems-until they discover a new one-their growing attraction to each other. They've built the syllabus for love's latest experiment, but neither of them expected they'd be the ones putting it to the test"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

So, I really enjoyed The Roommate and Clara's story was a good intro to these characters. Her's was a fish out of water story. The Intimacy Experiment, however, is a much more mature story. What I mean is Naomi and Ethan are adult that are established in their careers and have overcome different challenges a human can expect to experience by the time you are in your thirties. So, where Clara was uncertain about herself and who she is in the world often asking for permission to take up space. Naomi knows who she is and where she belongs. She takes what belongs to her and does not rely on anyone to give it to her.
ALSO - this book is very Jew-y. I love Jewish representation - especially representation of someone who lives a religious life. There were a few parts of the book that felt authentic and if you are Jewish or a member of a minority group, you can appreciate the author including these scenes (JCC's needing security for instance).
Anyway - I loved this book! (
