Ashleigh > Recent Status Updates

I only make these updates when a book really riles me up. I haaaaaaaate that Ethan has to be desperate and hurting again. Like, wtf?? Why did we need another whole book of that? I don't understand...

Ugh, can already tell this is gonna be hard for me to rate. Which makes me sad since the first one was such an easy 5 stars.

Slight spoiler: So I'm like 60 pages in, and while I'm so excited to be back in this world...I HATE that Ash is the one with a relationship... So Ethan has to chase him, again?!?! I'm not a fan of that, at all. I hope it can do this in a way that doesn't make poor Ethan look like the child again. I wanted him to be the one seeing somebody so stinking Sebastian had to chase him for once. Ugh, we'll see I guess.

Omg, this is so addicting. I literally cannot put it down to get anything done!!!

This has so many absurd things that I'm having a hard time continuing. And Matthew is written like he's an 8 year old child. Idk, we will see how I feel by the end. I've made it this far I'm just gonna finish it.

Holy cow, pretty sure I just figured out at least part of what's going on. I don't wanna spoil it but I wanted to mark the point that I figured it out/guessed at.

I have loved her other books, but I'm not so sure about this one. I can't stand one of the MMC's and don't see how that's gonna change.

Obviously this could change but right now I hate both MMC's. Both selfish as fuck and the one may be a narcissist

Oh Lord, yeah. This isn't healthy for me to read. But I mean, really?! Poor freaking Evan. Isaac "loved" him, but the first thoughts he has when Evan leaves is well, I always knew it was gonna happen. Deacon is who I'm supposed to be with anyway. I mean Jesus, can it get any more clear that Evan absolutely deserves better?

Ugh, I'm having a hard time. I LOVE August Jones writing, like so freaking much. She brings the characters to actual life, in a way not many authors can do. However, I have a tough time with MMM...and this is giving me flashbacks of The Director (which is also her only book I really don't love). I am feeling for Evan a lot like I felt for Vince in that book. And I wanted Vince to leave the other 2 the whole book.

No women have been born in 100's of years but somehow there are wives and babies being born and you can't date outside the brethren?? Huh

So, this has me completely hooked but screw this man. I want Sage to leave and find somebody else who isn't in love with someone else. I can't see my mind changing about that...

I am liking this so much more than the first one! But the end of chapter 27 made me audibly cheer!

Ugh, this is definitely rough to read. So stinking sad for Xed. But I'm at the part where it gets explained why Matt leaves...and I still don't forgive him. It wasn't a good enough reason.

During Finding Delaware I had a hard time forgiving Taylor. But I don't remember hating him like I do Matt in this. I honestly can't see myself ever wanting him and Xed to be together. I really, really want Xed to leave and literally never speak to him again. I don't care about Vals stupid threats....Matt is a spineless asshole.

Geeze. This is FEEDING my angst loving heart. It's nothing but pain lol. I don't see how I'm gonna end up liking Matthew though. Sweet baby Xed deserves so much better!!!!

I literally hate Jasper now. I don't see him being redeemed for me. That's how much I can't stand him

Ugh, now it's starting to hurt. Already 😔

Ugh, this is so good so far. I really wish August Jones had a backlist of like 200 books that I could read!! I have read all the MM ones and was anxiously waiting for this one..it's not disappointing so far!

Geeze, no wonder I DNF'd this the first time. Jasper is literally insufferable!! Self pity drives me absolutely insane. I'm gonna stick it out, because the audio is great and CP Harris generally somehow makes me end up liking the books lol

Unfortunately I DNF'd around 60%. I loved the novella but this just got so absolutely boring. The intense love they feel for each other makes no sense since they barely even knew each other. Even the spice in this wasn't enough to make me stay like it was in the novella. Maybe I'll try again another time, who knows.
