I don't know what is going on with me - but it seems, me and contemporary romance might need to break up or something. Lately, most of my reading experiences are on the wrong end of the scale - and I just end up frustrated, annoyed or indifferent.

description

And, honestly, I hate rating low and giving a shitty review - so maybe I need a break - because maybe it's not the books, it might just be me. I really enjoyed Breaking Him and I've been looking forward to this one, but unfortunately, it was just too over the top, and I found myself disconnected, bored, and struggling to finish. :/

Sandra Cortez Brandi I don't think it's you, the last few you read didn't work for me either.

message 12: by Jln (new)

Jln That's too bad, I know what you mean though. Sometimes I have to take a break and read something else! After I finish my Lauren Layne books, I have some YA releases to try, I'll let you know if they're any good! Good luck with your next one, Brandi! :)

Raquel I don't think it was only you about this book Brandi. I didn't enjoy it either nor none of the friends I BR with. It was too farfetched and ott. But i know what you mean too, sometimes you need a change of genres. Good luck with your next book :)

Pearl Angeli I feel you, Brandi :( Most of my reads lately were also kind of lame. Great review, hun!


message 18: by Kathleen (new)

Kathleen Oh man, sorry Brandi. Maybe a good Paranormal might get you back on track. With Paranormal s, over the top is a good thing :-)
At any rate, I hope your next read is an amazing one.

♥Sharon♥ Bummer! Sorry it wasn't a great read for you Brandi. Great review!


message 24: by Didi (new) - rated it 3 stars

Didi Lol, I know what you mean, Brandi. I think it's healthy to take a break from certain sub-genres. I've started to feel a bit the same...everything has the same formula, or same drama or same progress. Anyways, I just finished this and although I liked it more than you did, I held the same frustrations.


Pavlina Read more sleep less blog  Fantastic review lovely :)) so glad we agree in this one ;)


message 26: by Kai (new)

Kai Ha! I'm right there with you. I have 3 DNF'S for the week, one from an author I usually love. I'm thinking I need to give this genre the "It's me, not you" line for a little while. Maybe I'll revisit my tyrst with the fantasy genre. Lol

Awh! It could work for you...I know others loved. Maybe it's just me being picky. xo

Justyna I exactly know how you felt as I have the same feelings at the moment! It is getting more hard to finish this book.


Karen I couldn't even write a review. I knew I didn't hate it but I barely liked it. I've read better from R.K.
