its a bit predictable but adorable and while there are slow moments, and it reads like a fanfiction (I listened to it so that helped I guess) I dono it's not the best thing I listened to this year, but that's why i'm not giving it a 3. I did quite enjoy it. A happy ending all the way around, and I get to cross off an Adult Summer reading!
I'm obsessed with this little (not so little) romance book. I know it could go under my “romance” block for my local (to me) summer reading book hunt thing...but I put it under “published in the last year” block because it counts. And oh the love these two have for each other, and the little boy Niko! it's just the right amount of drama (At least for me) I'd scan the content warning in the front of the book, because it does touch on some touchy topics that a lot of you might be facing at the moment, but I love it!
OH BOY where do I begin? I picked this up thinking it was good. It was FINE. But before you come “at me” (you know who you are) I'm not used to reading fantasy (or rather “high fantasy” as it were) There is things I do enjoy about this book don't get me wrong!
Things I liked: The magical setting (it's interesting to me, and it kept me reading)
Character building, I really liked most of the characters
world building....
this is going into my cons as well
I hated where it ended (Because I ended at chapter part way through chapter 38) If it were my own book I would give it more time I think, but I'm just like please end already. Just please end please!
I'm very sorry if you like the book, but you aren't me and I'm not you (that would be weird)
but as I said, I liked the writing, it wasn't bad, just very ....how do I say this nicely? CLUNKY! just ugh I feel so bad for giving this three stars, I really wanted it to be a 4 stars, but I guess not every book can be a 4/5 star book. I'm very sorry, I really wanted to like it!
it's so cute! I can see why it won awards! Unlike the last “award-winning book” this one had everything. I listened to it on audio book, so that also helped. Im not one to usually pick up short stories like these, but I needed a small book for my summer readings list. It did the trick and got me out of the reading slump I've been in! So thank you Murder Bot!
THERE ARE TRIGGER WARNINGS AT THE FRONT OF THE BOOK MAKE SURE YOU READ THEM BEFORE YOU PICK UP THIS BOOK! (cant say I didn't warn you)
That being said;
Just a banger of a book! I had to soft DNF it though, but when I finished it (my 12 of the season, and second of May) Im glad I picked it up again. Happy endings all around. I laughed and giggled and just awed it was so cute!
I need more, Im so glad there's at least another one coming soon!
This is fake dating mixed w/ real life things that could or might have happened to u at some point. Since I went in blind with the audio book I will have to tell u I wasn't prepared for some of it, but the ratings are unfair, that being said just keep with it and I want more! Best audio book of the year so far!
(there might be spoilers) and this book is full of trigger warnings. If you are bi sexual or any kind of gender fluid you WILL be triggered. (this is your warning)
I think i need to edit my review to make it make more since; i was really mad at the author when I wrote that awful review (maybe to match how bad the book was? I don´t know) But that´s how I felt at the time.
The book DOES have a plot, and it´s kind of ¨sicence-fiction¨ based.
This kid named Aaron who is ¨Bi¨ i say ¨bi¨ because it´s a lose representation, and I myself felt very ¨attacked¨ through out the whole ¨No homo¨ bit. It really rubbed me the wrong way. It´s like if two black teenagers call them-selves the ¨N¨ word in public in front of kids and what not (expect they dont do it in front of kids)
and just like that bit was just like the ¨ick¨ factor of the book for me. I cant review it on book tube because i dont have the book with me, but that´s what i would say this book had was just the ¨Ick¨ factor. I don´t exactly know if that´s what it was going for, but despite the ¨Ick¨ factor, it was well written. I might pick up another one of the authors books, but just like i need ¨cuteness¨ right now, that ....i dont know about you, however; this was NOT IT. There was NOTHING CUTE about this book.....it was the book from high school no one wanted to read, yet here I was reading it.
Im sorry, is that to mean? That´s why i gave it three stars and not 2 or 1 because I did finish it, and if i had DNFED It like i wanted to, this review wouldn´t be a thing, reviews are supposed to be helpful, im sorry if this is not, but this is just how i feel about it...i dont even remember when i finished this book, but i just...nope place holder book and that´s IT for me...
If you don't like Harry potter, or “picked this book up by mistake not realizing what you were in for” then go back to your cozy books, or more importantly your children's books. This book is the life of one misunderstood blond boy wizard.
Tom Felton reads his life from the Barrowers to Potter and every where in between! It's so good listening to it, and if you pick this up I suggest you get the audio book because spoiler Tom himself reads his own book. It's very comforting and it's like seeing an old friend.
I dono I wanted to give it a 2.5 but I think that was a bit harsh, plus good reads doesn't do “half stars” like get on wif it jnowwhatimean” see annoying huh? At first it was cute but then it was super annoyingly predictable but I'm glad he got better at his writing and I didn't get this book first.
I like his use of words but seriously Ash is so annoying, but tbf he DID say that would happen and it did.
The page count is off by at least 100 or so pages please fix this. (Or not I guess) it's whatever because I had to start with the audio books too cause they got to be to long but for some reason or another, the page count is 100 pages off u are awful
This is not a review on the author, just how weak and uncaring these sobs are.
The book is one of the best so far
Trigger warnings, if your an addict, or a recovering one, be aware of this book has LOTS of TRIGGERS and the 6th book, not the first.
I didn´t give this book a 5 because welp just that I had to give it a trigger warning. I wasn´t triggered, but it DID TAKE ME FOREVER to finish, and with that it´s not exactly a 4 (like it looks like) it´s a meer 3.75 I liked everyone else but the main character. I even loved the side characters, and John, Quinn, Blay and even Lash. (though not fussed on the lessers)
I like how i can picture everything as if i was watching it on the TV or in my head, i love the fact that it keeps going, and the fact that I did finish a cringe worthy book. i want to say nice things about the main characters, because welp i liked everything else but the main character. The girl wasn´t bad, but that whole ¨chosen bs”“was just welp creepy, and iḿ glad (spoiler) it doesn´t wind up happning, but still.
come at me if you want, but it´s just my opinion. (professional or not) it´s just my humble opinion, and you born again cathlics should not be reading vampire books anyway. That´s just me, like how i shouldn´t read the bible because i´d burn in a church if i were to step foot into one.
but yep that´s just me being moody. It should NOT take me this long to read a book I hope it never does again.
There are Some TRIGGER WARNINGS in here; ie abusive family, and “a cult status stuff” but other wise it's just one of the better ones I've read so far, and I love that every brother has a roll in it. The women make cameos every now and again and the female this time is strong, but check yourself and see what you can handle before you pick up any of the brothers! This is TOUGH STUFF IF YOUR NOT READY FOR GROWN UP LIFE GO BACK TO THE TWEEN SECTION and pick up Twilight again!.....
4.5 higher (i think then the other one? I can't quite remember) but for some reason these are taking me a LONG time to finish but this time i'm happy with the ending! such a good and happy one! I can't wait to finish them! Super love this and glad he had a happy ending (not going to spoil it for you) but it does wind up being a good ending.
Book 2 of the black dagger brother hood. If u don't like “real world romance” then this one isn't for u! If u don't like strong females and sexy men and scary bad guys then go back to the teen section. No go back to the children section you are not ready for the hotness...
The women was more annoying then the first one though, but that's just me. It did get better though and the ending made me cut out loud (good thing I wasn't reading in public)
You will get attached to the chargers and characterization is a big deal to me and it's funny, dark and everything!
