The Intimacy Experiment

The Intimacy Experiment by Rosie Danan digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

“Danan is becoming a go-to author.”—New York Times Book Review

Naomi and Ethan will test the boundaries of love in this provocative romance from the author of the ground-breaking debut, The Roommate.


Naomi Grant has built her life around going against the grain. After the sex-positive start-up she cofounded becomes an international sensation, she wants to extend her educational platform to live lecturing. Unfortunately, despite her long list of qualifications, higher ed won't hire her.

Ethan Cohen has recently received two honors: LA Mag nominated him as one of the city's hottest bachelors and he became rabbi of his own synagogue. Low on both funds and congregants, the executive board of Ethan's new shul hired him with the hopes that his nontraditional background will attract more millennials to the faith. They've given 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.

Smiling Face with Heart-Eyes“Es la segunda vez que esta autora en logra sacar de un reading slump. Mega recomendado si les gustó la serie Nobody Wants This. Hay tanto que quiero hablar de este libro. Tantas cosas buenas en una pluma tan directa y al punto. Habla de la conexión con tus creencias, tu comunidad, tus personas favoritas y sobre todo contigo misma. La importancia de una intimidad sana, tanto en pareja o sola. Y las lecciones de amor propio y crecimiento creo que fueron de mis cosas favoritas. Yo me sentía entre el público escuchando a Naomi hablar, me sintiera identificado o no. Incluso se hablan de rupturas y si están pasando por ese proceso les recomiendo leerlo, cap 35 hay un speech que me dejó con el corazón en la mano, y si les gusta los rituales, aún más. Una pluma en tercer persona que nos cuenta ambos POV y que me fascinó que siempre estuviera pasando algo. No se sobrepasa en diálogo interno repetitivo. Además, es un libro chistoso sin forzar chistes. Las situaciones que pasan a veces soy muy divertidas! Los capítulos de softball🛐 La historia de Naomi como tal es predecible en el buen sentido de la palabra. Y a veces pasa que los MMC se sienten muy forzados que nos gusten, pero Ethan es algo que no solo no suelo leer (no es clásico MMC cliché), sino tan genuino con su alma tan buena que no siempre sabe cómo actuar para que nadie salga dañado. Es medio awkward también todo el buen sentido de la palabra. No le doy 5 estrellas porque me hubiera gustado más escenas que le dieran peso y mayor sentido a los sucesos de los últimos capítulos. Es un libro simplista y straightforward, tampoco es lo más serio que vayan a leer, pero cumple MUY bien con lo que promete.”
