4.5
I certainly did not expect to like it so much! I loved the characters, the pacing, the story itself. I appreciated that the romance didn't dominate the whole plot (even though I shipped these two like crazy), there was an excellent harmony between every topic discussed.
The only thing I didn't like was a kind of rushed ending. I would have liked some elements of the story to be discussed in depth at the end.
The expectations were too high, unfortunately. The book was decent but a bit boring and predictable. Not sure if I'll continue on with the series, time will tell.
It was fine, and the ending was great, but I think it would be better as a short story.
This book gives a very interesting insight on the porn industry.
Also, Clara and Josh are the cutest!
At first I didn't like this book at all. But then came the second part, and... AH, I LOVED IT SO FREAKING MUCH. It was difficult for me to imagine this relationship work in the beginning, but it somehow worked for me. Naomi and Nicholas went through so much growth as characters, and I'm so proud of my babies.
I meant to read I Found You by Lisa Jewell, but picked up this book instead lol
I noticed that I've read the wrong only after I finished reading it :D
The book itself was great though.
This book was a ride. Really enjoyed the characters and plot of the story. Even though it was predictable, I still liked it in the end!
This book was so fun! I thought that Alice and Takumi were very cute together. But I had a few problems with the book.
For example, I HATED Feenie. I thought that she treated Alice horribly, and was a terrible friend in general.
Also I didn't really like the pacing. Sometimes it felt rushed, and sometimes it dragged too much.
Actual rating: 3.5
This book really surprised me. I did not expect the plot to go in this direction. But overall it wasn't super original. I know, my thoughts on this book are confusing (like my thoughts on every book tbh), but i liked it and at the same time sometimes thought that this story had no point.
so sad that this book was not for me. not sure if I'm going to continue with the series.
I have such mixed feelings about this book... There were many well done elements, as well as things I didn't like.
2 stars only for the art style because it was stunning. The rest of the manga... Well, it was stupid, disgusting and didn't make any sense.
Well... Surprisingly, I enjoyed this book a lot more than I thought. BUT it doesnt mean that I enjoyed it a lot. I was entertained, you may say. I started to read this book with such low expectations, so it worked for me. I wasnt very dissapointed, neither I was surprised by the plot or the characters. It was just a fun read, nothing more than that.
P. S. Yeah, I admit, this book has a lot of plot holes and stupid things in it, but... Oh god, how refreshing it was to read about a romance (sometimes VERY stupid) and not about A FREAKING LOVE TRIANGLE AGAIN.
I liked it, but some of the things at the end just didn't make any sense... I'm frustrated. But now I can say that I've read The Hunger Games, I guess. Yay for me.
I almost cried at the end.
This book made me very emotional. It's just so unfair, what happened to these beautiful people in their lives.
Too bad that the beginning was very confusing...
