🥱😒 Nah give me a BREAK!
2/5 STARS ⭐⭐
GENUINELY, where do I begin... The positives?
- the main character Bella, although I kept imagining Kirsten Stewart, was a very likeable character. Her troubles and fight with anxiety also gave her a lot of relatability.
- this book made me feel very anxious, which could be construed as a bad thing, but I'll say that it shows how the author is able to really make us feel what the character feels.
- I will also concede that although this was a very predictable read and had me cringing and rolling my eyes constantly, I devoured it. It really kept me reading, it kept my attention. I don't know how. But it did.
Now the negatives... Which I will try to explain without spoilers.
- I genuinely don't understand what the craic is with the romance... It genuinely makes no sense why these two are together. I don't see what they have in common. It's literally just lust. That's it. That's the only thing this "couple" has going for them. Which would be fine... IF, bringing me to point number 2...
- IF THE FKN S*X SCENES WERE GOOD. They in fact are not. I give this a 1🌶️ and that's only because zero isn't an option. Like there is indeed s*X in this book and to be honest I thought it WAS just a smutty, spicy book. Ya know the 'no plot' kind. But it had a good-ish plot!! And horrible S*X scenes.
- speaking of the plot points, I don't understand what the author was doing. There are 500 different plot points in the book that comes out randomly to you and then get resolved within that chapter or the next, granted they all tie into a neat bow of what the literal hell in the end (which was again so fkn predictable it ruined it), like the author just kinda through plot points at you to further the romance and the "she's mine, nobody can touch her, I must protect her, she can never be hurt so long as I'm here" MMC.
- The MMC btw I also didn't like. He creeped me out. Now I've read my fair share of absolutely FKED UP romances. But he wasn't in any way shape or form romantic to me. He was creepy. Especially in comparison to Bella's Ex! Like NO.
