ok, so, apart from my ocd issues that made me read the series, it is really not a good book. All the comments I made in the first volume remain, and this third adds insult to injury by being much ado about nothing, hope Shakespeare pardons me for the pun, first dragging things on for a million chapters and then turning things into a Mexican soap opera, paternity tests included. I almost see someone being pushed down the stairs, it was the only thing missing.
of course, this one I read on wattpad, so I'm not commenting on the absurd typos and editing missing, the author had enough on her plate coming up with new ways of paraphrasing “we are never going to work out, I can't live like this” every five pages.
and then, the ending. Jeez. should I comment? after the bet, you would think the guy would have learned a frigging lesson. Then it all goes weird because he tries to be poetic, and suddenly, next chapter... wtf happened???? they had no explanation whatsoever (for the first time btw) for not having gotten together years before, he published all the freaking books and she is fine with it, and cherry top, he is suddenly a normal, grown up human being!! I remember Phoebe, from Friends, defying Ross:” well, at least I respected you when you stood for your beliefs”
-I felt the same. Ridiculously childish tantrum thrower couple at least was consistent - how did they vanish from one chapter to the other?
I'm still giving two stars because, cringing with embarrassment for the bad writing and crazy plot and pathetic characters, I read it all, like candy that is bad but addictive on Halloween.
