 My rating: 3 of 5 stars Purchase Links: Amazon Barnes & Noble  Scarlett and James definitely have some chemistry. And some of those smut scenes were pretty damn good. But this book had me conflicted. While overall I liked it, as an over-the-top popcorn read, I did find myself disliking a few things. Like the fact that the phrase "best friend" was said approximately 70 times. Or the fact that it seemed like everything, but the kitchen sink was thrown in this plot. The story still has a bit of charm to it though. I can't even say that I was disappointed by the book because I wasn't. And I have to say this is the first time that I have seen an author utilize images at the beginning and end of chapters in this fashion. And when I finished chapter 13 and saw that image .... it was literally perfect timing. The other images had gone rather unnoticed by me but this one was extremely clever to use and definitely added to the mood of what had just happened. I remember saying to myself "oh shit that's so cool". That aside sometimes it felt like the book felt like it was telling one love story between the main characters and then flipped to include a different aspect. But I don't feel like it is something I can explain without spoiling the story, so I won't go into details. I would however say that if you find the synopsis interesting then read it. Especially if you have kindle unlimited. |
