Hallowing Eve

Book Title: Hallowing Eve
Author: Alessia Brio
Pages: 10

Let me just start off with the word selection is incredibly tantalizing! The author’s words stir up different emotions all in the same moments based on word choice. This book has a lot of action, so look out for no real stops as sex comes into play. The switching between names constantly may leave you rereading things to make sure you understood what you just read. Once you’re on board and know what’s going on and who is doing what, damn!
They haven’t really discussed their feelings for one another but these two women are completely in sync that it doesn’t even matter. It doesn’t take long for them to get the right words out after sex toys are introduced to their first real moment alone together. Once the sexual tension has shattered, they can’t seem to help theirselves. This is the first time I’ve ever read an erotica short lesbian story with sex toys involved and damn have I been missing out! The intensity of it all increases as the author adds in beautifully worded expressions to every single moment shared.
A well put together quick read that will definitely increase your heart rate! I can’t say I’m not turned on, that would be a lie! So, get your read on and join in on being seduced by Alessia Brio’s words! Plus, I see this book is free on Amazon right now! As usual, I’m going to add in a buy link!

Paradise

Book Title: Paradise
Author: Jason K Lewis
Pages: 35

The beginning of this book is really cute. The book slowly gives you an idea as to who the main characters are, where they are, and where they are going. It then goes in to explain why Paradise was created, what it is and a little on how people get selected. I really enjoy the emotional buildup and the way this author writes. So full of detail and mental thoughts.

This seems to be a science fiction type book. I am curious to learn more about where Paradise resides. It has a question stirring up not only in some of the characters’ minds but also in mine; is Paradise too good to be true? I love how cute the first group of people are in this story. A husband, a wife and their daughter. How they are together and how they talk. It’s sweet.

I love how nothing is random, the people involved all have their turn to talk. You get to learn about each person, their personality, and their fears. Though, as the story continues, Paradise is explained even more. I don’t know how I feel about Paradise, if it’s worth going to or if it’s not worth it.

Oh my gosh. The scene of Michael Judd, it’s crazy. What he does. His actions are intense. The ending, oh how I wasn’t expecting that to happen! I am intrigued and wanting to get book two, now. This is a cute little sci-fi book. Well worth the read. If you like this book, make sure to get the next book in the series, Bird of Paradise. (Not yet released.)

101 Degrees Fahrenheit

Book Title: 101 Degrees Fahrenheit
Author: Eva Gale
Book Pages: 19

I love the way this book starts! It’s flows to beautifully. The way things heat up and how the two characters act around each other is incredibly hot! The whole time, you’re just waiting to see who has more courage to act on their desires.

The heat outside doesn't compare to the heat in the room, the heat that surrounds the two of them. Though temptation may be in the room, it’s all about morals and being professional, until that gets thrown out the window. All that’s left is tension and urges of seduction.

I absolutely love the word selection. I love the sex, the thrill, the intensity. Sex with a stranger and even better, unexpected sex with a stranger. What’s even better is it switches between characters so you don’t get a one sided story. You get to read how both characters are feeling and what they’re thinking during their most erotic moments.

Oh the sex scenes. Yes, that is plural. There’s so much sex in here I feel like I’m visualizing a very hot movie that has a lot of sex scenes! Every time I think it’s just going to be nothing but story to the end, I get side swiped with another amazing sex scene. It definitely keeps the reader hot and bothered the whole entire time! There is also a beautiful twist to the story that you guys don’t want to miss!

A Blossom

Book Title: A Blossom
Author: Isabel Chloe
Pages: 71


The writing to this book is a bit different than I am used to. It is definitely uniquely. At first some things didn't make sense and I realized, that’s just how the Author handles things, to keep you interested. Most authors cut to the chase while this one makes you wonder a bit more than expected.

There are so many mysterious things going on. So many questions aching to be answered. As the book continues, more mystery hits and more questions form. I do wish there were emotional or mental details of what the character is feeling and thinking rather than so to the point of each thing she does with no real explanation. Though the feel of the character’s personalities, it does fit in nicely.

This book is science fiction. It releases a lot of information for explanation in chunks, so in order to appreciate the work, you need to be able to digest it all and remember it while the book unfolds. The hostile creatures are a lot to mentally visualize because there are quite a few types and they hold certain purposes. They are definitely a selfish evil who don’t care about mankind, only creatures like them. They are power hungry.

The thing that kind of bothers me is there are random names of people thrown in with no identifier as to who they are. I’m guessing they are also agents of some sort. Overall, once I got used to the writing, it was incredibly easier to understand and follow. There’s even a little unexpected romance. For my sci-fi lovers, this may be a book to put on your list. Hopefully a second book comes out soon, the idea behind the book is good enough to continue.

Devlin's Grace

Book Title: Devlin’s Grace
Author: Lee Ann Sontheimer Murphy
Pages: 124


There’s two reasons on why I felt I needed to do this review. Okay, make that three. One, one of the main characters has PTSD, as do I. Two, it has to do with a building possible relationship and the hardships involved, which reminds me of every relationship I've ever tried to have, including my marriage. And three, who in their right mind wouldn't want to read this book? I couldn't wait for it to pop up as being next on my review list!

I enjoy the way Gracie and Devlin first meet, it’s beautifully written. The starting scene of it all, the words were painting a picture. The way they are with each other, scared but eager, makes the story already seem incredibly appealing. As they lightly get to know each other, they both are playing outside of their comfort zone; curiosity and eagerness washing over them. They dance between needing each other and running from each other. Fear of getting close seems to be the biggest issue between them.

The beginning of them getting to know each other is absolutely adorable! The word choice, the actions, and reactions are well played and incredibly thought out. Reminds me of all the cute things involved when getting to know someone new. I also love how the author expresses the thoughts, feelings and emotions that both characters are feeling. It really allows one to get lost in the book that much more. It’s kind of intoxicating. I don’t want to put the book down. I fear I won’t get anything done without knowing what’s going to happen next. To prevent risking that kind of torment, I will be reading this all the way through.

This book proves that opposites attract. He’s a bad boy in every way. He has a rough past and a personality to match. She is a good girl who is afraid of most things. He rubs off on her with his bad boy ways. She rubs off on him, teaching him what it’s like to be more relaxed and gentle.

Let’s talk about the sex! Though not as descriptive as an erotica, it is the perfect amount of emotion, passion, and details. Its light but enough to make you get lost in the moment with them. Might say it will even turn you on.

All that Devlin is facing comes to the surface, which puts a damper on their building relationship. Though the relationship has no title, maybe it won’t need one after all. Then again, Gracie is quite a strong woman. They could be the perfect match, if they can handle what lies ahead.

Oh, gosh! I am crying! Someone who doesn't cry and more so doesn't cry and admit it! This book definitely got to me! I’m NOT saying what is making me cry. It’s definitely worth reading for yourself! You’re going to have to tell me if you cried too! I don’t want to be alone on this water-work train!

I’d tell you what happens at the end. If they make it work or if the fate has other plans for them, but I won’t. I can’t say I’m disappointed with any part of this book because frankly saying so would be a lie. Well worth the read, down to the very last word!

I Don’t Want to Be Your Guru, But I Have Something to Say

Book Title: I Don’t Want to Be Your Guru, But I Have Something to Say
Author: Joyce Shafer
Pages: 64

I am in love with this book. Sure, there’s a story around the big message in the book, but I am in love with the big message the book is sending. It’s basically a book about how to be a better, stronger, and more successful you, without the loads of overwhelming facts and aggression. This book doesn't focus on what you’re doing right or wrong, it focuses on what everything is and why it is. It allows you to form your own opinions on what you need to take from the book and how you can apply it to your life. Plus, the book is mainly in dialog, as the main character goes back and relieves the day she met Old Bill and shares the deep, powerful, and completely life altering discussions they had.

The book starts really good and as it continues, peeks a big interest. As the story continues, anticipation kicks in. The whole reason for showing up was to see Old Bill again. What happens after showing up, is nothing like what A.J, the main character, expected. The urge to learn more and find out what A.J. will hopefully find out is killing me.

It then goes into a lot of detail on how A.J. first came to meet Old Bill. I am really enjoying the country type feel in the words that are expressed. It makes things seem so laid back and relaxed. The way that Old Bill speaks, his words are so full of wisdom. The story sounds like that of a diary or journal. Yet, most diaries or journals are full of emotions and feelings, this is full of inspiration words and insights on life. It’s truly wonderful.

There’s a cute amount of humor built into Old Bill’s personality. I’d say my favorite chapter is four. It has so much insight toward the world and life. I kind of want to throw this book at my college philosophy professor, because it seems to gather better questioning toward everything than any of my course books ever did. This is my favorite line, ever:

“What this makes me wonder,” he said as he speared a piece of pie, “is if maybe every thing is sound–like lots and lots of musical notes in a universal symphony.”

It paints such a captivating picture! It makes me wonder if his logic has some truth behind it.

I love how the author expresses a thought, applies a theory, and then explains it in a way that the main character and reader can understand. Some authors like to only allow the information to relate to the character, rather than also allowing it to make sense to the reader. This is reason enough to want to read this, if you haven’t already. Plus, it answers a lot of questions people have and allows for more thoughts to come about for consideration. I think one of the best parts of this book is the difference between activity and productivity. It may help those of you who are caught in a situation, problem or addiction and give you the insight on what it will take in order to make a change.

There’s a deep part in this book that a lot of my friends and I have been discussing a lot lately. The topic is energy and being so strongly connected that you can feel each other to a level. I have certain friends that text me, asking me what I want. Simply because they can feel me thinking about them. It’s an intense connection. This book explains a little on why that happens. It’s so fascinating. I will be sharing this book with all of my friends in hope to enrich and empower their lives a little more. A lot of it is things we could easily realize if we just think about it, but the wording and how the author paint a picture brings everything to a new light. Please, go get your copy now! It will change your life!

Boudicca: Britain's Queen of the Iceni

Title: Boudicca: Britain's Queen of the Iceni
Author: Laurel A. Rockefeller
Pages: 44

This is such a great story. So full of life, inspiration, will, and courage. Honestly, I may have never come across it on my own. It is truly motivational. A true heroic story. I love this story, mainly because it shows that women are just as strong if not stronger than a man. This story allows the eyes of all to be opened to see that not only did men have a huge impact in history, but so did women. Plus, the ending of the book is truly beautiful!

The Prologue reminds me a lot of all of the things I learned about the Romans in my Humanities class. Romans were so greedy and out to conquer anything they could. They were ready to start a war with anyone for land. This book starts off with the fact that the Dobunni people stood still to stay alive, especially since they didn’t like the act of war.

I love that this is a true story and it’s not just told by a narrator, it’s told by actual people but in story form. It blows my mind with all the facts that happened and what these people did to try to protect their people. It blows my mind more so on who decided to enslave their own people. True royalty would never sell out their people to protect theirselves or create a better life for just theirself. When someone with that much authority betrays their own people, they should be forced to pay a very high price.

The fate of Boudicca and how she comes into luck is truly wonderful. Spotted by the King of Iceni and later becoming his queen.  The story shows how sometimes relying on your gut to determine your future is exactly what one must do. Though, the King’s determined allies are Boudicca’s enemies, the Romans. The King wants peace and so does Boudicca, but they have different visions on how peace should be made. The King’s decision on trying to make the Roman’s an ally doesn’t go as he had planned. Inevitably, his decisions end up causing him to lose his life. The fate of Iceni rests on its people, who need to find a way to undo what the King had done before his death.

So much honor. So much strength. Queen Boudicca has so much heart. She’s willing to risk everything to save her people, herself, and the future of Iceni. I wish the people of today all had the kind of strength Boudicca had. She goes in fighting and refuses to leave until her death has come or she has become victorious.

What stinks is that this fight would have never happened if women were treated equally. If women didn’t get treated like their life had lesser value than that of a slave, Queen Boudicca wouldn’t have needed to fight the way she did. It could have went differently. Roman’s believed to be superior to everyone else. They believed that everyone needed to be ruled by them and fall slave to their ways, especially women. Women shouldn’t have authority or a life outside of catering to a man. The roman’s believed women were not fully human, only man. This story proves that this is not true at all. It should have never been considered in the first place.

If you’ve never read about Boudicca, now is your chance to see a true warrior. Learn about all that she went through, all that she faced, and how she handled it. If you already know the story of Boudicca, this book shines light and beauty on such a bad situation. It’s definitely worth the read, no matter how much you may or may not know about Boudicca.

Seed Planet

Book Title: Seed Planet
Author: Dan Baram
Pages: 36

I really liked how everything came together! If you’re looking for a short, scientific, and intelligent story to stimulate your mind, this is it. To people not into that, the bravery of Samuel and his need to figure out the truth is quite endearing. Plus, it really makes you think… after mankind has destroyed all resources, is this what it will come to?

It blows my mind that scientists send volunteers to a planet, Terra Nova Antares or Waterworld, without any proof that life can survive there. It’s incredibly risky. There has to be a stronger reason on why the risk is so well worth putting over a hundred men and women’s lives in that kind of danger. Especially if there is no real chance of survival if you go. The reason for the mission, it seems as if they want to have the volunteers use an organic compound to create a growing environment for the seeds. If they grow, it shows life will be able to survive. I guess the only way to put it is, if the volunteers can get the plants to survive, everyone will live. If the plants don’t survive, everyone’s dead.

What sucks is, they do everything they’re supposed to do and come up empty. They are all getting irritated while trying to come up with solutions. Then, the first death arises, Joseph Brown, and it starts stirring up a lot more stress and fear in the volunteers. Samuel seems afraid to find out the answer as to why Joseph’s figure seemed to be equivalent to the image carved into a tree.

Let’s talk a little about Samuel. What I am realizing about Samuel, the main character, is that he comes off as being a loner, being weak and fragile. He seems as if he lets everyone step on him yet he still tries to keep his head high. He reminds me of a boy that’s trying to blossom into a man. He has this building need to figure out who he is and what he wants out of life, more so out of a life that risks being cut incredibly short.

As the story continues and starts to release more detail, I feel myself trying to analyze how the story will end. There’s always a detail or two missing that prevents confirmation for where my thoughts are heading. There are a few curveballs to the story. The curveballs turn out to be highly important details. They are the key to figuring out how everyone may have a chance at survival. The root of why Joseph’s body was discovered the way it was after his tragic death took me by surprise.

I hope there is a book two. The whole time, I kept saying out loud, “I can seriously see this as a movie. I hope the author continues!”

Love and Liberty

Book Title: Love and Liberty
Author: Lee-Ann Graff-Vinson
Pages: 65

I’m not going to say if I did or didn't cry at the end. What I will say is that it is definitely a great book! To those who have served and know what it’s like, remember this is a fictional book. Also note that the research behind it makes it easy to read, considering it's a military based book.

It starts off with Platoon Captain Jack Parsons and Captain Dana Jenkins both stressed about the future mission and each other. They both have walls up, which makes working together complicated, to say the least. As I read further, my jaw begins to drop on why the hostility lies between them. The problems they face, the things they risk, the outcome to future possibilities.

I must say, as the story unfolds, I am getting a little emotional. After reading the blurb and knowing what’s about to happen before they do… it’s hard to bare. Reminds me of my military days, I want to jump in and protect them. To people who have served or are serving, this story will hit home. To those who want a taste of what it’s like to be a soldier, take the time to get lost in this book. The writing from the author allows you to imagine that you’re with them, seeing what they see, hearing what they hear, living what they’re living.
One problem, yet solution, is someone is lusting for someone else. Their feelings are fighting to help the one they might care for. Developing loving feelings for your co-worker in the military is unprofessional and prohibited. In this case, it helped not only to keep the fight alive inside of them, but it also gave constant adrenaline rushes. These adrenaline rushes helps to save this person that their heart desires from what they’re about to face as well as to keep them alive.

Captain Parsons is faced with watching his men be murdered because he is outnumbered and outgunned. He puts the lives of everyone still alive first and keeps himself from being a hostage, since he’s the only man left standing that hasn't been captured. He finds a way to radio help. He comes into a few of his platoon soldiers without injury whom are ready for the rescue mission.

The intensity to this book, it’s a lot to take in and is making me want to cry (key word is ‘making’). I don’t cry, typically. Some wonder if I even have tear ducts. So, it says a lot when a book can stir up this much emotion through their descriptive and well written words. It takes true talent to get the reader this emotionally invested in a book.

There is a lot of build up for who the Iraqi rebel group, Al-Moofoona, is suggesting to be the reason for the ambush and kidnapping. They want something that someone on Parsons’ team possesses. There are a lot of questions lurking and no way to find answers without going into harm’s way and finding out the hard way.
As the story continues, the fiction of it sets in. It remains intriguing while it continues to hold my attention. There is a lot of notable research throughout this story, enough for it to come alive and make it more realistic and surprisingly less serious (if that makes any sense). If you want to know what may or may not have caused a possible tear or two and what made me incredibly emotional, please give this book a thorough read! Also if you are one of those people going through a stressful or boring time in your life and just want to get lost in a fictional military book, this is now on my recommendation list!

The Spider Thief: Part One, Stolen Memory

Book Title: The Spider Thief, Part One: Stolen Memory
Author: Laurence MacNaughton
Pages: 69

I… I….just… finished reading it and the twist at the very end just blew my mind! I definitely was not expecting that! This book is kind of like coffee, good to the very last drop! Alright, let me start off with the fact the writing style is addicting! When I first read the title of this book, I must say I wasn’t all that interested. At least not at first. This book has nothing to do with a hairy spider and by all means has nothing to do with good ol’ spider man. As it says in the blurb, “From the cobweb-choked ruins of a lost city in the Amazon emerges a gold spider statue with flashing emerald eyes. If the legends are true, the gold spider has the power to erase the past . . . change the future . . . perhaps even grant eternal life. But touching the spider will steal your memories -- and then your life.” This caught my attention. It practically sells the book! Though the full blurb is a bit unsatisfying, this book is fast paced, thrilling, smooth and beautifully written. The very beginning captures you, takes you in and won’t let you go. I’m full of as many questions as the character, Ash, is. This book reeks of nonstop talent. This author is incredible! The words and how they’re put together is simply brilliant. As I’m reading this, my stress level is picking up. I feel like I am Ash. The things being discovered as the story unwinds has me uneasy. I want to know more. Putting this book down is not an option!

This story isn’t boring, at all. The character build up is amazing for Ash, since the character learns about himself as the reader learns about him. Ash, has lost his memory and is trying to retrace his steps and, under the circumstances, he is figuring things out while constantly risking looking death in the face. He doesn’t know who to talk to, who to trust, what he did and who he did wrong to. His recent decisions are putting him in a constant life or death situation and quite frankly he has no idea why. He’s out for answers and he’s in a rush to get them. It’s easy to see that he has such a big heart, despite the mistakes that he’s made. His only real goal in life is to set things straight while protecting the ones he loves, mainly his brother.

Now, let’s discuss Cleo! She’s a badass that seems to be by the book (legally). She has full faith in the law and how it works. She seems to be at the right place at the right time. Cleo seems to be the hero to the story. She comes in when Ash needs her the most. They seem to have quite a past, which explains a little why she ends up at the right place at the right time. Though, something seems off about Cleo. I can’t exactly put my finger on it. Every time she talks, the more I want to shake more information out of her! It’s like she is starting to say something important and then stops. I want to yell, “Keep saying words!”

Ash’s brother. This poor guy, Mauricio, is caught up in the middle of his brother’s decisions. He sounds completely supportive the whole time until you learn why he’s so supportive. Mauricio has that older brother vibe where he wants to protect Ash no matter the cost. Funny thing is, Ash is the same way with him. They both put each other first and try to do what they think is best for each other. After losing their parents, they are all they have left. With how the first book in the series ends, I am dying to know what happens after what Mauricio accidentally finds out. This book was way beyond better than what I had expected!

French Kissing: Episode One

Book Title: French Kissing: Episode One
Author: Harper Bliss
Pages: 78

Oh damn. I just finished reading this book and I’m ridiculously turned on! So hot! So dirty! So many things going on that my brain is still in shock! This book is definitely named correctly! Not only does it involve French kissing, but it is definitely outlined like that of an episode you’d watch on television. Ugh! I need more! 

Alright. Let’s get started. The start of this book gives off a lovely vibe that I can’t put into words. The comfort level the two close friends have with each other has my mind spinning in delight. What happens next is emotional build-up that makes you quiver with eagerness. You know someone wants to sleep with someone else, you just can’t figure out who is who just yet. The stress, emotions, anger, tension, it is all so overwhelming yet motivational to continue reading. The character building is well put together for each person, some more than others. Considering this is an episode book, this is perfect for not getting too caught up on a lead character, you’re instantly involved equally in every characters life. Each character has their own section, which allows you to learn more about the person’s personality. Each section also perfectly unwraps the story as everything unfolds. If you have a visual mind like I do, it’s like watching a television show. 

Just to help anyone who can’t keep up with who is who while reading this.
• Claire is the single yet mingling lesbian.
• Juliette is Claire’s best friend. She is also Alaina’s spouse. 
• Nadia is Juliette’s spouse. Nadia likes setting up Claire, with or without her permission.
• Steph is the woman who works for Claire and Juliette. 
• Margot is Nadia’s co-worker and one of the women Nadia tried to set Claire up with.
• Dominique is a Claire, Juliette and Steph’s client.

The first sex scene. Oh dear! I’m not going to say who had sex, but the words pulled me in and had me roaring for the climax! The intensity! The emotion! This alone makes the book well worth the read! Reading the passion that is involved in the sex between two women, it’s truly beautiful and intoxicating. 

Deep dark secrets unfold. Drama is unleashed. Problems arise. It’s all about deciding on the right thing to do. Sometimes it’s easier to follow the marvelous idea that comes rooting up from the depths between their legs. It’s all about if they decide to play out the idea or do what’s right. The best part is when a marvelous idea happens to also be the right thing to do. The sex scenes are intense, passionate and completely emotional. Nothing is ‘hit it and quit it’ material in this book. If you’re looking for a perfect read that grabs, holds, and continues to keeps your interest, this is the perfect book series to dig into. Designed as episodes. Just like in a TV series, you’re going to want to know what happens next! I know I am curious!!

Golden Rules How To Make Friends And Build Relationships

Book Title: Golden Rules How To Make Friends And Build Relationships
Author: Mike Mitchell
Pages: 10

This very short book brings up a lot of valid points. Has technology really molded society into anti-social people? This book makes you think about how things have changed over the years. Life used to be about communication, but through the years technology has formed a whole new level of how people interact. This book gives many tips and tricks on how to get back into that olden way of communicating even with technology creating a barrier. There are even tricks on how social media can be used to benefit you into making new or even more friends.

I think everyone can relate to this book. Have you ever had such an amazing friendship with someone online, but when you met in person… there was nothing to say? Building a virtual relationship is easy but how do you maintain one in person? This book will show you how to do just that. Not only are there tricks on how to make friends but also how to keep friends. My favorite part of the book would be possible factual information on why people need friends. Mr. Mitchell explains the many reasons behind relationships, things to consider, possible problems, solutions, and differences. A lot of people do things without a proper knowledge as to the importance behind why they are doing.

Overall, this is a good book. It has some insight on why to have relationships, how to create a relationship, reasons we need relationships, and how to hold a relationship. The writing of this book needs worked on. The grammar and punctuation was never truly considered, especially in the beginning and middle of the book. I am really interested in where the facts in this book were obtained. The book is missing citing and a reference page in the very back.

Steel & Ice (L & J)

The Book: Steel & Ice (L & J)

The Author: Emily Eck

Page Count: 239

I just finished the book and my jaw has still to come up off the floor. I am so pissed right now yet so intrigued by the ending. I need to know more! My mind is so blown, I need a second to gather my thoughts! Ugh! This was definitely a great book! If you know anything about the streets or what it’s like to struggle and survive in a dangerous city, you’re definitely going to be swept up in this book like I was! Hell, I still am swept up! I hope the next book(s) give a strong character build up and understanding for all of the other characters in the book and damn it I want to know more about J. I’m so fascinated by the two main characters! The main character, Elle, has one of the sexiest personalities ever! The man that she develops the hots for easily matches up to her. One hell of a sexy couple who definitely love to explore and surrender to each other sexually! I couldn’t get enough of their sex life! I normally steer away from rebellious ‘street’ books. Growing up with all of the street business in my face makes it a sensitive area for me. This completely changes everything. I fell in love with the characters right off the bat! Elle’s bold badass yet totally soft ways and J’s mysterious ways about him. The main character (Elle)’s two best friends are a freakin’ riot! The other characters play their parts pretty well too. The writing is raw and incredibly unique. The characters are well developed. I feel like a third party in the story, watching as everyone goes about their business. After finishing up my Psychology class a little over a week ago and learning about my own behaviors and why I am so alert and aware of everyone and everything, this book definitely hit home for me. It explains the main character’s life including her past, present and future. The details give you an in depth understanding on who the main character truly is. I’m used to reading books that are completely fiction but this book went on a whole new level when it comes to realistic. I guess it’s because the narrating makes me feel like I’m having a conversation with a close friend. The writing is cool, upbeat and discusses life in a relatable now-a-days type way. If you don’t understand what the author is saying, keep reading and she better explains or creates a trend to make things all come together. At first I was a little confused on the slang but then it just became normal. I knew exactly what was being expressed later on and things that I read earlier, clicked. The story really picks up and explains J a hell of a lot more. The first sex scene completely caught me off guard! The humor all through the book was intriguing and kept me fully interested just as much as the story line. The clever aspects and different unique approaches really pulled me in even more. This author is amazing at multitasking the different characters! I noticed some people didn’t enjoy the dialogue in reviews in other locations. This book is about keeping it real. I love that part the most. I must say some of my favorite parts are the wise cracks and the Chappelle Show episode recalls. I think I laughed harder reading about them then I did when I watched them on the show. If I could claim one chapter as my favorite, it would be chapter 10. The need, the love making, the feelings, the stress. It’s all the perfect combination. Truly a great book and the start to a great series! I can't wait to read more!
