What We Do in the Night

OMG...this guy was such a twatwaffle. The type of asshole you want to nibble on his ear while stabbing him in the dick repeatedly. (lol) So I liked this one. It reminded me a lot of a certain 90s movie. Which was fine beings as it is a favorite movie of mine. The writing was fantastic. It was fairly long, but paced well. The plot was intriguing (I want to work at Caché!!). The sex was plentiful and hot. There is some OW drama in the form of Ari's ex girlfriend. Usually I am not a fan of crazy exes, but it didn't bother me overly much here. I found her crazy (and how Ari handles her) more amusing than annoying. However, I hope she just remains a nuisance in the next book and not something more.



There was a well-rounded cast of intriguing secondary characters (I adore Del). Ari...well Ari is a bit of an acquired taste. The guy was just an entitled asshole most of the time. However, there was also something likable about him under all that douche. (lol) The banter and chemistry between him and Valentine was sizzling and humourous. For me the real star of this book was Valentine herself. I loved this heroine. Strong. Smart. Loving. Feisty. Caring. Not a virgin (yay). She gave Ari a run for his money. I loved her. Last, this ends on a cliffhanger that broke my heart. Ari...Ari...Ari...there better be much groveling in his future. That is all I will say about that!

SAFETY SPOILER Depending on how strict you are with your safety rules you might feel like Ari cheated on his girlfriend. He goes to her apartment to break up with her, but Val is there (they are working on a project together for school). Val leaves and Ari follows her to Caché forgetting to end things with Harper. Ari and Val have sex that night. He then breaks up with Harper the next morning. So technically cheating. But Harper and Ari aren't some great romance. They actually don't even like each other. (lol) We later learn Harper slept around while together with Ari.
