Literally is amazing.

I didn't like this book very much.I hated Gage's behaviour towards Violet.One moment he was getting close to her the other he was pushing her away.He was constantly hurting her.And what about Jeremy? He told Violet (when he thought it was Gage) that he likes her and after that his feelings weren't mentioned and then he magically got feelings for Arianna when Violet and Gage got back from his grandmother.Apart from that I didn't understand why was Gage fighting just to give his father his mother's necklace and tell him that she thought he was a mistake.I honestly thought he would get a revenge or something but he didn't do practically anything.It doesn't have sense.

Personally i love a good cliche story and i think that the chemistry between the two characters was really cute and i just love the story. The outline of the story was quite simple but also had a few crucial plots which only made it more intriguing. Overall this story was amazing and is actually one of my favourite from your books. P.s I've read your books on Wattpad. <3

So this is more of a 3.5* but I've enjoyed it so I've rounded it up.
I loved Violet and Gage (well it was a love/hate relationship with Gage up till 60% of the book).
There were some inconsistencies and grammar and spelling mistakes but not much.
All in all it was a fun and fast read.

The beginning was really good. I was interested in finding his reason for donning a different identity but when I did get to that point, it didn't feel good enough.
PS- Everytimeine bumped into a wall, it turned out to be the hero's chest.....
I mean... Okay.

December 14, 2020This story started out so well, but then it completely derailed with Gage's injuries and Myrna's psychosis. I am struggling to finish the story. Most of the reviews I saw echo the sentiment about the unnecessary rabbit chasing. I feel like this story had so much potential before it fizzled out

I wanted to love this book I really did but I got halfway through it on my wattpad only to have to download another app to finish the story in which I had to pay coins to finish. Only to get to the end to find out they’re not together. This story started out wonderful lots of humor little quips along the way. It was interesting trying to found out their secrets they kept from one another but as the story went on it got darker and even sadder less funny quips and not as much comedy all of that would’ve been fine with me if it hadn’t ended and when I do it second season or second book where they weren’t even together.

After everything I decided not to read the second book I think the author should’ve ended with the first.

Loved it, maybe I've never read anything like this, no not the romance, but the starting storyline, how they're both HIDing and it's amazing.
It's a good book, you should read it, I just wish it was more detailed and the scenes actually ended, and I know what not every book needs to have some tiny bit of good smut, but someone at least describe a kiss in detail, like I was begging for one by the end. :(

Wattpad Book.
So it needs a lot of editing. But the story line was original although the Viking plot is really underused and not well thought out, whereas Gage's story line is almost perfect. I think Gage as a character could be a little clearer with editing. As with Myrna, she could be a bit more manipulative with Gage.
Overall, it needs a major overhaul.

How do I read it on good reads? I first found this book on Wattpad and immediately fell in love with it. I would reread it so many times and I recently went back to find out it’s no longer on Wattpad 😭

I din't finish this book.
I started reading it, and I really like the characters and the premise. Somewhere along the lines, the plot got stale. I skimmed ahead to find out why Gage decided to become Travon. After I found the answer, I gave up reading. I may eventually finish reading this, but not right now.

I was actually surprised with how much I ended up enjoying this book!
To be honest, I had very low expectations for this book. Before reading it, I didn’t think I would like it at all. I expected it to be cheesy and poorly written, especially considering the title, That Bad Boy in Glasses, and the short overview.
Although, I was pleasantly surprised after just a few chapters. It was wrong if me to ‘judge this book by its cover’, as they say. I actually found myself repeatedly banging my head against my bedroom walls (out of both giddiness and frustration) while reading this book.
This book surprised me, in the best way. The book actually had depth to it and managed to pull me in immediately. It caused very strong emotions to stir up within me, which is quite a difficult task, might I add. I’m usually not easily affected by the things I read, which makes this book stand out from others. And that’s why I’m writing this review right now.
I loved the characters. Obviously not all of them, but I won’t get too much into that, since I don’t want to spoil anything. Yes, the characters were very confusing at times. Other times they made me want to literally die out of embarrassment... But, they still made the book what it is.
Sometimes they were very hard to decipher, especially Gage with his constant change in personality. But, overall, I found them quite enchanting, as well as undeniably hilarious!
The fact that the occasional grammar errors was so easily disregarded my me, says a lot about this book as well. I was so engrossed in the book that I completely forgot something that would normally would be a dealbreaker for me. For once I was able to see past it.
”That Bad Boy in Glasses” made me scream, cringe and cry, but most importantly - it made me laugh. And I don’t think I would mind reading it again at some point in the future.
I give this book a solid 9/10.

I remember reading this a few years ago on Wattpad and loved it A LOT, like really, A LOT! my perspective on this book WAS that it was sweet and cute to read and that I vividly remember how I was fangirling over a scene where and that was the cutest thing to me when I read it. However, as I tried to reread it this year, I cannot stand the writer's portrayal of Greg like Wtf? Bipolar much? I just cannot stand both Greg and the plot.
if I rate this the first time I read it when I was still in high school, I would definitely rate it as 5 stars, but now that I've grown, Nah, this shit ain't for me, I'm old.

I found this book on wattpad, the story seemed cool so I started reading...
This was kinda in the lower middle of my "goodness" scale, there were a couple of plot holes and there were many things that could've been improved. The characters were interesting enough. It was pretty simple and though there were some parts that kind of irked me it was good for the most part. That all being said I've read a couple of books on wattpad in the past 3 days and when comparing the books I'd read I think that so far this book came out on top.

Okay so I this was a reread for me and I think I enjoyed just as much the first time reading. The whole first half of this book literally made me squeal from all the tension scenes. Even though this book is a bit cliche I still really enjoyed reading it. I would have liked to give it five stars but there were just a few problems for me. I gave my rating based on my enjoyment and not for its writing quality.
