(Do to the fact it's an uncorrected proof, I won't be posting the first lines of this book).
While reading this, one of the main things that kept in my mind was that I'd seen this story before. And not only before, a thousand times before.
Everything in the book felt cliche. The characters, the situations, even the main plot. And all this cliches made it predictable as hell. I wasn't really surprised at anything that happened, actually, I expected it all to happen.
And not only was it predictable and cliche. It also was unrealistic. The characters got this conversations out of nowhere and this conclusions that didn't make sense. And they'd feel things out of nowhere and than not feel them and then feel them again. At first I didn't pay attention to it but it got kind of ridiculous while I moved on.
One things I really couldn't stand about this. They way everything was keen to be sexual. And I mean like, for everything, she'd be horny and sexually frustrated. Not only her, but Gray (the MC). There were this romantic and then one of them would go and be like "SEX" or "My lady parts" or some sh*t like that. It bugged the sh*t out of me.
I didn't really like any of the characters, because I never actually understood who they were. They where always changing and do things that didn't make sense and they never acknowledge those thing and agh. It was a mess.
In conclusion, this book might be enjoyable for some people, but for me it was just too flawed and cliche for my liking. I've just heard this story way to many times.
This is why I don't read romance.
