Cover: An ok for me. Don't hate it, don't love it.
I'm always looking for a great New Adult novel. They've become something of a new favourite genre for me.
This one unfortunately didn't quite hit the spot for me.
The plot and premise of this book was there. Stifled girl falls for brother's best friend.
But the writing really let it down.
First off- did this book have an editor? Because it doesn't seem like it. And it desperately needed it. A lot of sloppy mistakes- miss instead of mess, etc.
A few is forgivable but unfortunately it was throughout.
I think this was slightly more irriting though, and that's that the writing felt so immature. The dialogue was so unbelievable, adding 'dude' to the end of every spoken sentence doesn't make you're characters contemporary. They're speech just didn't feel real.
Some parts felt very similar to The Boy That Sneaks In My Bedroom Window.
Teagan- I didn't connect well with her. She could turn very selfish and narcissitic.
Declan- I liked his character much more, and he felt more 3D. But I don't see how he fell for Teagan when all he ever says about her is that's she's beautiful.
Over all this book felt very shallow. It tried to have substance but it just fell flat. The writing let it down.
If you're a New Adult fan, I think it's safe to skip this one.
2/5 stars.
