Why do the audiobook narrators use different pronunciations of Neve's name? When Jen's email started it took me a while to get she was talking about Neve, because the other narrator so far has pronounced it differently... Question for the ebook/paperback readers: does Jen spell it differently, like a nickname? Or is it a mistake in the post-production of the audiobook that no one corrected that? Because I feel like the pronunciation of main characters' names should be decided beforehand...

I am reading the Spanish translation of this novel, and the title is translated as "Indigno de ser humano", which in English would translate to "Undeserving of Being Human". The original Japanese title is 人間失格 (Ningen Shikkaku), where ningen means human and shikkaku would translate to something like "being unfit for a role", "disqualification, elimination, incapacity".
I find it interesting how the English and the Spanish translations highlight different aspects of the original Japanese title. I would be curious to hear any other variations translators have chosen in different languages.
For the languages I can speak: -French: "La Déchéance d'un Homme" (The Decline/Degradation of a Man) -Finnish: "Ei enää ihminen" (No Longer Human, and apparently this translation is based on the English translation by Donald Keenen, not the Japanese original!)

This was such a cute romcom! I was utterly charmed by how sweet the romance was.
The plot wasn't complicated, classic "city girl inherits a ranch and tries to save it with a grumpy cow(boy)man", but it was written with so much heart and warmth and that made it unique! I read it so fast and now I'm sad it's over... I wish I could spend more time in that world! I also really appreciate the humor and all the cock jokes, the author never missed an opportunity 😂
Belle was such a ray of sunshine despite her insecurities and Cal was grumpy, but so soft for her. I liked how their relationship progressed. It didn't feel rushed and you could see them falling for each other step by step. I loved their "not dates", their dedication to saving the ranch and how they learned to depend on each other. The side characters were also nice and I can't wait for some of the characters to get their own books!
I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a heartwarming cozy monster romance read!
Big thank you to Emily Antoinette for giving me the opportunity to read this ARC!
