“I can’t believe you think I could ever reject you, Anastasia, You have no idea, do you? The lengths I’d go to if you’d let me. What I’d do to make you happy.” – Nate to Anastasia.
Once again, remind me not to judge a book by its cover. But here the cover was absolutely beautiful but the inside was not up to the mark. I do not consider myself a big romance reader because whenever I read a romance book it does not make me feel butterflies but empty from the inside. For me, romance is not excessive physical intimacy but things that make me feel the whole zoo in my stomach. Staring, tension, slow burn, light hand touches, gestures, and small things that scream intimate love.
As a literature student, I am not a stranger to how writers for centuries have written female characters as inferior and villains. And in the 21st century, it is the same. Anastasia Allen, the FMC is so annoyingly written that I could not bear to continue because of her. Nate Hawkins, what another green flag.
To be honest, when I first read the meeting of FMC and MMC I thought Nate would be a red flag but the way he understood her and talked to her was so green-coded. There is no plot in the book, it is just straight-up smut and forced smut I felt like and I didn’t feel any chemistry between the characters as Anastasia was so annoying from the start.
The only thing I liked about this book was Nate’s friendship group was freaking hilarious and I loved it. Henry, the character he is; if he exists in real life, I want him as my best friend. What a guy, I have never admired a fictional character like Henry and his book is coming very soon. He kept whole toiletries needed by girls in his room, so anyone who needed them could use them. I hope Hannah doesn’t ruin it and shows Henry how savage, straightforward, and understanding he is.
And lastly, the Epilogue was absolutely not needed, it was one of the parts that killed the vibe of the book for me.
Rating: 2/5 (only for Henry)
“Whether you two are together or not, if you are tired of Nathan you can sleep in my room. I’ll get the air mattress again.” – Henry to Anastasia.
Side Note: I just want to clarify that this is entirely my opinion, you are free to love this book and I am free to give my opinion on this book. I would be very happy if you loved this book but please do not take this review to heart and it is okay to have different tastes. Thank You.
Till we meet again, Be Happy, Be Grateful, and Keep Smiling – a girl who likes to write.
