Toni’s Reviews > Shutter > Status Update

ch26- no, all us readers knew that Sammy knew about the cameras! Oh, how convienent that Sammy leaves with the only boat to the island, no landlines, no cellphones of course. Anthony the great director and planner would ensure everyone gets trapped...sure... let's see how us readers are supposed to "gasp" fall for this reality as everything has to be told to us to lure our feeble Betty/Lola minds!

c24-unfukn believable, a revenge fight is the whole point of this stupid book! Anthony wants revenge on Sammy & the fukn coward hires Mad's to be his beef. Then Sammy whoops their asses as if this were some consolation prize the author gives the readers. I'd rather eat bowls of whale shite or lick Burning Man toilets than read this book again.

c23 Lola is so full of shite. I think this is the author's smut dream; Lola is so hot & helpless and trapped on an Maine "island" (OMG, lol) w/4 men who all think she's gorgeous. Anthony loves her after a week, Sammy is obsessed because she looks like Darla, Mags the Runner sleeps in the same bed & flirts but doesn't do anything to her; Ben, her not-friend from HS Sophia boyfriend, thinks she's cute. GAG ME!

c22- dad death/suicide. A long, useless, and OVERWRITTEN chapter and explain fuk all nothing but does reinforce that her mom probably is right to hate her kid. Betty! Also, who lets their daughter stay in the bathroom with their parent who just committed suicide while the medics & police are en route? Nobody except maybe this stupid author
CAN'T wait for this book to end to smash it

c21: everyone loves Betty/Lola at first sight, and now we get to the super cringey sex/romance. So, Anthony, a few chapters back, forced dye (he's an expert director and hair colorist, it appears) Betty/Lola's hair from brown to blonde and CUT her hair too. Of course she just let it happen, for hours no less. Whiplash... she talks to Anthony one way, but he does whatever he wants to Lola, but we all know it's Darla

ch20 so Ben & Anthony set up cameras all over the island for days...and Sammy never notices...then we get a flashback into Anthony & Sammy's beginnings, and Sammy knows since Anthony was at least 14yrs old that cameras and taking pictures are his thing...so much so that Anthony is nearly "raped" by Sammy....but fastword 10-15yrs later and Sammy is clueless about cameras & Anthonly's movie...yeah, right...

c18-19 Even her dumb ass mother hates Lola/Betty! Best news ever!

ch16-17 are you fukn kiddng me? Is this the plot revealed? It better not be as lame as this...

ch14-15 introduction of another stupid character, which was obviously going to be a problematic and the antihero as 'Lola' clocked in on Sammie the second she landed on the "island" Sammie's horrible, unrealistic, flat monotone dialogue - I can't decide who I want to murder Lola at this point.
I can only take so much shitty plot in a day. This has ruined me from reading other books, as I want to be over this one

Justifiable shitty...I've got whiplash from Lola aka Betty's inconsistent ideas/thoughts, actions, motivations, and now add a creepy relationship with her dad...ewwww.
