Press Play

I read one book from this author a few years ago called Swan Song and i remember loving that one so when I randomly came across her again, i prioritised reading it. 

This one to me was a disappointment unfortunately. It was just so high stakes all the time that even though there were moments of such tension it didn't hit me as it should have. I wanted to be on the edge of my seat and it just didn't feel that way. I would've liked it if the stakes went up and down, that would've brought weight to the moments that were tense. Instead it got old after a while.

This is just my opinion, obviously, but i feel like I'm just over the kind of heroines like Valeria here, who pretends like she isn't  interested in the guy but in reality she's been crushing on him so hard for years (since this is a brother's best friend romance). I think if done well it's a fun dynamic to read about but this felt so cheesy, and it was a major turn off to me for the rest of the book.

The writing too just didn't feel as good as i remember Swan Song being. 
All that being said I've heard great things about this book, so if it sounds interesting maybe pick it up but it wasn't the book for me.
