2.5 - If I see the words babe or baby one more time, I'll scream - Stars!
My least favorite book by this author. And I'm serious about the use of the words babe and baby. If Jax called Ellie babe/baby once, he called her that a hundred times - way overused.
This book wasn't bad, it just reminded me too much of the movie How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days, which I've seen a hundred times.
My first Penny Reid book and it was a bust :( Obviously, the issue is me because everyone else loved this book. Maybe I read it at the wrong time or maybe I was just in a mood, but I struggled with it from the beginning and found myself skimming most of it. I guess you can't love them all. I'll wait a few weeks and try another Penny Reid book - fingers crossed that is a better fit.
3.5 Liked it, but didn't love it Stars.
It was a little long and I found myself skimming some of the chapters. Highlight of the book - Cillian - LOVED THAT KID! When he stood for his sister to Pippa, my heart melted.

| 2.5, I don't know what I think, Stars! Don't you hate it when you are so excited to read a book and while reading it, you realize you don't love it as much as everyone else does? :( Yep, that's what happened with this book. I didn't dislike the book, I just found it to be okay. My issue - I wasn't invested in the characters; I honestly did not care about them or what was going to happen to them. However, during the last 15% of the book, I was curious to see how it was all going to wrap up. While the ending wasn't enough to make me love the book, I was happy to see it end the way it did. |
