This book was requested by a previous Lesbrary reviewer who did not finish or review it. In order to keep my Netgalley feedback up to date, I am submitting this review marking it as a DNF, though it was another reviewer who requested this.

Morgan and Valentina were interesting characters to read and I enjoyed getting to know them. I especially thought it was interesting to know about Valentina's background and the description of throat singing.

As for the conflict between the two characters, I thought that Morgan overreacted when she saw Val with her ex, she just assumed the worst without having a conversation with her girlfriend.

Overall, I thought this book was an okay read and probably won't go on my reread shelf.

(actual rating: 3.5)

A nice and easy read.

I had fun reading The Open Window. Both Morgan and Val are interesting characters with their own quirks and faults, something which makes this romance very believable. I loved how they met and I would love if more people would think like Val. I won't spoiler you so if you are curious now, you have to read this novel. But I can tell you (since it's in the description as well) that Morgan believes in magic and all things related. Since I am working at a publishing house concentrating on spiritual books this was rather interesting to me.

Usually f/f romances are only cute stories but with this one you get some rather sexy sex scenes as well. I have to admit, I wasn't expecting this, but it was a nice surprise.

I do have two regrets about this book though. First one is the asexual side character. Since the band is called The Asexual Kinks I was kinda expecting that asexuality would be a theme in this book. But it's not. One side character is ace but aside from her saying it once there is no mention of this ever again.

The second is the drama. Its resolve was far too quickly done and felt unrealistic because of this.
