Quick Thoughts: You Make Me by Erin McCarthy

You Make Me You Make Me by Erin McCarthy
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

2.5

Not my cup... heroine annoyed the hell out of me! She was too dramatic that it hurts to continue reading the book. It's either she wants to be with Heath or Ethan and she couldn't make up her damn mind! Top it off that she cheated? ugh. (and yes, in my opinion she did cheat with her fiancé!) She kept thinking and texting Heath while Ethan (the fiancé) is asleep! Then afterwards decided to meet him in his apartment while the fiancé is away.. nice girl huh?

And when Heath asked her if is she wants him to fight for her- she said YES. (and she asked this question while she's still in a relationship with her fiancé!)  Now while she finally decided Heath is the one she wants, she found out that her ex fiancé (Ethan) is "trying" to move on and she has the nerve to feel hurt about it!!!

I could understand some of her situations and feels. Heath was the love of her life and after all these years seeing him again awakened something in her but let me tell you, being in her mind and literally reading what she thinks was a pure torture! To be honest Heath or Ethan didn't deserve this woman. She was incredibly immature and selfish.. not a heroine I want to read.

Typical NA genre.. I just can't get over with the heroine. so 2.5 stars for me!

Quick Thoughts: Bounty by Kristen Ashley

Bounty Bounty by Kristen Ashley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this one! Though its been awhile so I had to re-visit the COLORADO MOUNTAIN SERIES as for some reason I quite forgot who the heck is DEKE. Lol!

BOUNTY has EVERYTHING why you love Kristen Ashley. Its pretty long and lots of inner thoughts from the heroine.. but its KA!

KA is one of these rare authors that writes a book and just hit you in the right spot! (Only a KA fan would understand that. lol!)

4.5 STARS for me. I guess the only thing that kinda irked me was the way they quite talk. Kinda poetic? They babble something so simple yet so hard to understand.

description

And also the heroine.. She sounds just like the hero, kinda like a biker. I feel like she doesn't have any identity... and sometimes I couldn't tell them apart. ugh.. Again I prolly not making any sense here. lol! But I noticed that in most of KA's books.. so I guess that's just her style.

Anyways, still a 4.5 STARS!

Quick Thoughts: Virtue & Vanity by Astrid Jane Ray

Virtue & Vanity Virtue & Vanity by Astrid Jane Ray
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This is so sad because this book has everything I WANT! The plot was interesting, we have a cruel hero, hero who is inlove with ow, TSTL under dog heroine and they are in a marriage of convenience. Sounds promising yeah? Not really...

It just didn't do it for me. As I mentioned, the story line was good.. first few chapters was engaging but it quickly went down after that. The drama was MEH. I feel like I was just reading it and it should have made me feel like I'M IN IT. The way it was told was a lil off, some scenarios was all over the place that my mind couldn't even process it. There were some revelations but the way it was delivered was chappy and boring. For me the whole thing was lack of something. Everything just didn't sit right to me. I don't know.. I'm prolly not making any sense here again. lol!

I'm all into underdog characters- heroine with no backbone? Fuck sign me up! But the heroine here annoyed the shit out of me! It seems like she cried in every fuckin chapter! I think the author was trying to make us reader feel sorry for her, but the constant whining, shaking, throwing up, passing out and the self pity bullshit was too much EVEN for me WHO LOVES THIS KIND OF SHIT!

I've been reading this for 3 days, not even close to the end and It made me think.. "Why do I even bother?"

So I gave up. I skimmed throughout and just read the ending. I can now cross this one out!

BTW- I'm not sure why this one is labeled as dark, it sure didn't feel like anything dark to me!

Quick Thoughts: Shade by Jamie Begley

Shade Shade by Jamie Begley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Omfgkkdkemfjeodm!!! I'm about to effing die!
Holly shades! I totally did not expect to get another SHADE book!!!

Edited:

Okay.. I'm pissed! But let me start this by saying- Shade and Lily's love story is EPIC!. I have no other word to describe it. Basically in this book is a re-run (to put it in words) of the previous Last Rider Series but in SHADE's perspective. I'm not a fan of re-reading events from different pov's but I just couldn't skip this one and glad I didn't! Gotta say, SHADE put all the MC heroes into dust!

This is the only MC book that I had really deep connection with.. and thats alot of saying as I've read so many MC books in my reading life time! (lol!)

The book is pretty long as it re-tells some stories from Razer, Viper, Knox, Cash and some of the Biker bitches etc. but even though I've read them all- it still quite different to read in SHADE's pov. It also answered all my questions and doubts I had before.

Also, wow. I didn't even realized until now how SHADE was such a big manwhore. I know he fucked all the girls in the club but in this book, it shows how he was with other women.. it was seeing an old SHADE and a whole new SHADE here.

Okay, I'm going to prettified this later on, but can I just rant for a little bit? That epilogue 3...

description

(view spoiler)

Yeah... I could have live without that epilogue 3! FML!!

Anyways.. sigh.. I'm sorry, I'm just emotionally drained at the moment. I cried like a fuckin baby.. rehearsing that moment over and over again is not what I plan to do for the rest of the week! Maybe I'm over reacting.. I tend to do that when I'm so deep shit with a book. Don't get me wrong, this is a MUST read. I just feel shitty right now I can't even think straight!!

5+++ STARS!
