Feuds and Reckless Fury

To be honest I don't really like this author, I'm pretty sure I won't be picking up any more after this one. I picked this one up because it's an MM romance and I love those. 


This just fell flat for me. I see that there was a lot of effort to try to add dimension to the characters, but it just didn't work for me. Sculpting, violin, track and heavy backstory felt like too many personality traits for one character. 

I did find a few plot holes here and there, like how Carrie's character was so badly developed throughout the book, sometimes she is treated like a 5 year old (oh no Carrie, we both were just WRESTLING and totally not making out) and then I find out she's 16?! and also the whole mystery that was trying to be developed, I just don't understand why Alis just assumes this anonymous phone number to be Canny, when there are clearly other scenes where they do text each other


There was low angst, their relationship develops quite messily but I can understand how some people prefer it to be that way for their reading experience. Just not my personal taste. 

What I hated most about this was the same recycled plot of daddy issues, and drug addiction, and then the daddy coming in to kidnap him, I feel like I'm seeing this in ever single popular movie and book these days

Also im pretty uncomfortable with the mental health representation of Canyon's mother and everyone just assuming she has depression and basically neglecting her.
