Beautiful poetic writing but the FMC is too anxious to function due to a bad relationship and break up. She’s wishy washy but not on purpose and just exhausting to read. Shes all over the place emotionally and she talks about all this healing work she’s done but we the reader don’t see it. DNF @ 66%

I tried but I feel like this author gives us the same type of characters, same/very similar locations and it just becomes a bore to me

It’s a whole lot of back and forth, Carmen annoying me and Theo a lil spineless

I know it’s gonna be a cliff hanger but it’s so good that I’m not even mad. Emory is a top tier book bae for sure even though the romance aspect is the least interesting part of this book

The FMC is a lil annoying I won’t lie but the story is soo good like I’m locked inn

This has to be the DUMBEST FMC I’ve come across in months like yall tell me does her brain activate at all???

I’m trying… the story is good don’t get me wrong but something about having to bare ya soul before the 🍆🍆 is INSANE to me especially for an alleged seasoned hoe like WHATS HAPENNING LMAOO

We need another urban category lmao like purely urban drama or mess something to better categorize books. Like it’s no reason it’s minimal plot and nonstop foolery in some of these books with no real resolution or point. Like sometimes I wanna read drama for the sake of drama and other times I want my book to make some damn sense.

Idk why the authors always get under my stuff tryna tussle like hold AWWWN I thought this was the readers space like if you can’t tell the truth and talk to other readers AT BELLA NOCHES THEN WHERE THE HELL COULD YOU GO? Lmao

FMC is not likeable lmao she’s a pocket watching weirdo. Like she paid money to take her former childhood BFF out admits she finds him attractive and all that jazz but my goodness the constant comments about his bank account were exhausting.

Who are the editors? And do they wanna fight these authors cus some of the stuff that makes it to the final book is CRAZYYY like authors need to stand over them like a black mama for homework a good “IF JOHNNY HAD FIVE APPLES” situation cus it’s going too far now

Fighting for my lifeeeeeee cus why not kill your cheating husband? The actual vow breaker like sure side chicks should face consequences but I don’t think they should die if you not shooting the man too. I’m tryna find something I like about either of them

I’m fighting for my life yall the MMC is actually mentally unwell dealing with repressed trauma from CSA, he’s ignorant and while you want to feel for him as a reader his laziness and inability to do the work is irritating. He’s obsessed with the FMC but really playing at her job and setting her up for a ruined career and reputation idk man

Retire the third act breakup if it can all be resolved by a 4 line conversation. Like it’s soooo tired like yall breaking up because of a miscommunication??? One that’s easily explained yeah no break up forever lamp

The tension is palpable y’all like Hold on lmao got me cursing folks out in my notessss

This author can writeeee she’s new to me but OHH she’s WRITING her behind offf

I swear J’ru is the ABSOLUTE WORSEE RIGHT HAND MAN ever like please his clock need cleaning 🫠🫠🫠

We need more hinged MMCs lmao I feel like we’ve strayed too far and a little crazy has turned into Arkham asylum vibes and idk it’s just not romantic. If everything takes our MMC over the edge then baby he need not date, like gone head and get the socks and do a lil extended stay for us. Like we so deep in the unhinged trenches that they aren’t even good partners 😭😭

IMO if you’re an author writing apart of a multi author anthology you should not be writing a cliffhanger or making the story two parts. Like huh we already got 9474 other books in the series/family to work through now we getting incomplete tales 😒😒😒

I can’t even touch another book yall like when I say I’m stuck, I’m stunned yeah Takerra got me journaling and reflecting something crazy. That later is TOO GIFTED we need a TV show for this series BAD

Oh LARRY SWANGIN HAYMAKERSSS YALLL but someone had to do it

Not she got me SOBBINGGGGG WTFFF DAWG she knew what she was doing putting that damn Coldplay song there MY GOODNESS

It’s a lot going on that really shouldn’t be and it’s not written well enough for me to be like OHHHHH. It’s like stop giving the girls jobs that require brains and making them dumb everywhere else. The story is drama filled and entertaining but I don’t see the justification behind the choices other than chaos

This might be a DNF 20% in and it’s a bunch of issues I don’t care for.
FMC- is gay but only cus no one noticed her and she was homely. Shes basically paid to have sex with the MMC cus the manipulator/ cheater shared between her and the MMC caught her in a desperate position. She lacks boundaries with her LOSER brother

I hate voice actors who read robotically or read like it’s mad periods between the word

Is there like a legal reason that folks can’t call something a series lol cus they been killing me talking about “STAND ALONE NOVEL 1”… like if it’s other books coming in a sequence set in the same location with reoccurring character lmao it’s a series or am I tripping?

I can’t believe I took time away from my Hello Kitty adventure island for these books lmao IM GETTING COOKED YALL my selections is BAAAAAD 😭😭😭

DNF
Good hair references is CRAZY in an urban romance novel written by a black woman, From what I saw all the Chromaty kids have attachment issues and are afraid of love. They all bitter af COUNT ME OUTTTT 🫠🫠

It’s a lot going on here and idk if it’s good lmaoo like I really feel like I’m missing mad pieces

DNFFFFF
