Book Reviews of Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List
Book Review: A No Kiss List For Your Wish List
Summary: 4 Stars
Leviathan and Cohn prove that their first collaboration was no one-hit wonder. If you loved reading--or even watching--Nick and Nora's Infinite play list, you will enjoy their latest collaboration, Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List. Whereas their first novel centered around a romantic love, Naomi and Ely mostly explore and uncover the value of love expressed within a friendship.
The talent of these authors resides in their evocative portrayals of flawed, seemingly selfish characters and relationships. Naomi is beautiful yet broken with family problems; Ely is scared of commitment and rather self-destructive.
There is an outstanding depth of character within the main cast--as well as of that of the supporting cast. Unlike Nick and Nora, Leviathan and Cohn unveil the thoughts of supporting cast by dedicating entire chapters to the likes of Bruce the First and Second, the Robins, the handsome yet mysterious doorman. Picture the opportunity to read Nick and Nora from the perspective of either of the Evil Ex's, the gay band boys, Norah's drunken best friend. It was fresh, beautiful.
Naomi and Ely's long, intimate history together; their quirky apartment residents; their dilemmas, delusions and diatribes all make for an excellent read. And in the end you will have a gratefulness for friends who are as imperfect as the face in the mirror, but essential to your being nonetheless.
