Molly McLain’s Reviews > Loving Violet > Status Update

I’m trying to choose if I’m going to finish the last hour of this read tonight and be done with it or delay the inevitable just to maintain my sanity…….

This book is basically like if a middle school English class wrote a soap opera episode.

Oh no, someone has taken her. Don’t worry, they’ll see how annoying Violet is and give her back.

Is there a such a thing as reverse kidnapping? Where you push the other person as far away from you as possible. Asking for myself and this character.

The GPS is microscopic and the only way to check the location is through an app that I've already installed on my phone.
"Like in the movies!" Violet says and laughs.
"That's true. I'm your 007."
"You are more handsome than James Bond."
"True," I say to her while I give her a soft kiss.
"I feel safer already," she says, hugging me tightly.

Still not convinced he isn’t the stalker. His words are creepy enough to be

Ex drops son off after giving 2 heads up Violet decides it’s better to makeout with new beau than to wait for the arrival of her son.

Ex cautiously asks if Violet is moving too fast (which in my opinion is yes because how you gonna let a man you’ve known one month take your child fishing by himself?), and Violet calls him a narcissist.

Girl, get your head out of the clouds and recognize you are the problem.

Well the ex showed up repentant and with emotional maturity.

Can he be the love interest and we just get rid of architect boy?

Granted, architect boy does have the better written POV’s…….

Bruh (as this author repeatedly says) is over here making chicken Alfredo and acting like it’s some super complex, high pressure dish. Bruh (annoying isn’t it), it’s some boiled noodles and a jar of Alfredo sauce. In the words of Elle Woods, “what? Like it’s hard?”

Austin after one work lunch and brief encounters at the coffee shop: “She’s (Violet) been through so much, and I want to show her that not all men are like her ex-husband. I want to be there for her and Adrian, to give them the stability and love they deserve.”

Austin one month ago: Committed relationships can suck a cactus. I got a new girl every night—expect nothing else.

Me: 🙃🙃

The amount of times she has said that she wants a cozy living room with a fireplace and a spacious kitchen in the span of five pages is innumerable…..

Homegirl is over here saying she doesn’t need therapy. She might not, but after finishing this book, I know I will.

This book reads like both a diary entry and a delusional watt pad story.

Violet: I’m going narrate literally everything I do every second.

Austin: I’m going to be the most fictional main male character I can possibly be and be completely one-sidedly enamored with the curvy FMC.
