Nondescript

by Ashley Rose

Jaz, Lily, Rikke, and Lorna are all beautiful young women who share an apartment in their college’s dorm room. Their similarities stop there. Jaz is independent and likes variety in men. Lily’s secret health problems keep her from processing emotions normally, causing the other girls to think she’s weird. Rikke is the only one in a monogamous relationship, though Adam’s attitude leaves a lot to be desired. Lorna is shy and reserved, only coming out of her shell when she’s partaking in her secret passion. None of the girls are friends. None of them even particularly like each other, but as they all face individual demons that sometimes intersect with each other’s lives, they learn from each other and learn about themselves. Will the girls learn the difference between love and lust? Will they learn social acceptance? Will they become friends, or are they destined to be nothing more than roommates.

I really wanted to like this book! I read it after Full press court because I wanted to know Lilly's story. In fact, I wish the entire book was only about Lilly. I love her character and the book left me wanted to know more about her and her struggles. I also wanted to know how her relationship with her roommates developed over time. There were a lot of gaps in the story; for example you never saw if the 4 characters ever develop a good relationship with each other even though they were all connected. I felt that the author started to go towards that direction but she never got there. Each of the characters had a completely different story and I wish they would have each had a separate book on their own. Overall, I thought the book was OK which is sad because it had all the tools to be outstanding.

Its just felt like the story is kind of..IDK incomplete sort of, no doubt is was good but after reading Full Court Press..anyone's expectation would be more or higher from 2nd Book.

It was good as any good book goes, I mean liked reading about beck and lily and how her relationship developed with miles but the character ricke was quite annoying. It was like she had a death wish or something and until she wasn't on the brink of her last breath she didn't seem to be acknowledging the fact that Adam does not like her for her. Then I couldn't understand how the author portrayed his character much because you can't be that stupid to know that if you did something serious like that and won't have serious consequences. I mean was he on drugs that he got so abusive or was he a natural sociopath who never felt any remorse in the first place. It was just hard to see what his anger was orientated by. Overall I guess the other characters played out pretty well especially Nash and Lorna and jazz with Travis. I even liked and came to accept bishop too. Long as he was sorry which was one large point.

Not at all what I expected. I felt like it was all over the place. I wanted to know more of Lily's story after full court press and also her brother but I didn't get enough. I loved how everyone was linked together one way or another I just felt that the characters didn't develop enough or even connect with each other as roommates. Really especially in call it's some kind of relationship whether it's a love or hate but you don't see any of that. If there's another one I read it to get the ending but damn I should've stopped at the last one!

I'll admit that it took me a few pages to get into this book, but once I did, I was hooked. I like how the author gave the perspectives of more than one character, but separated each one by chapters to prevent any confusion. I found myself engrossed in each of the character's lives, and was so sad when I got to the last page because I wanted the story to go on and on. I still have a few questions, so I hope that the author writes a new book very soon. I would be very anxious to read what happens next!

This book was not AT ALL what I expected. There are also some twists and turns and even one that surprised me to not be what I thought was going on. I read this right after I read this author's book Full Court Press because a character from that book (Beck's sister Lilly) is in this book and I was curious about what had happened to her. But this book was very different. I got sucked in, big time, and I'm glad I did. I really, really liked this book quite a lot!

I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.

Yet again Ashley Rose does an amazing job. This story is full of characters but she intertwined all of them flawlessly. The story is a page turner and when the end comes you are wanting more!!
