Good Attempt, But What A Struggle

Revisado: 10-31-23

I absolutely hate giving a book less than 3 stars, but I STRUGGLED to finish this book. It was just too much. I appreciate that the author was trying to bring understanding to the forced sex roleplay/fantasy community. And I will admit I feel more informed about that lifestyle and I do genuinely appreciate that.

However, the storyline and plot were all over the place. The unannounced timeline jumping was dizzying and difficult to follow (I did listen to the audiobook, so maybe that was the issue). There were quite a few plot holes and weird situations with the MC’s parents.

I will most likely not be moving forward in the series. But a genuine cheers to the author for taking on a very difficult and controversial subject.

Annoying Characters and Low-Quality Humor

Revisado: 10-30-23

I’ve struggled to get through this book. The characters were very annoying. I didn’t feel connected with any of the characters, including the main characters. I understand that this book would be classified as a comedy or spoof, but the humor was very low-quality. Most of this was filler, and after missing multiple chapters, the reader would still be able to follow the plot.

A very impressive debut novel!

Revisado: 11-25-21

** spoiler alert **
4.5 stars

I received a free audiobook version of The Missed Kiss directly from the author. It’s extraordinarily well written and clear Lowe has come into her life as an author with a bang! (pun intended)

Disclosure: I’m not usually one for love triangles.

Throughout the story, I found myself growing fond of Luke; I’m a sucker for friends turned lovers. However, I couldn’t root for him because the first half of Lily and Luke’s relationship started while Lily was with Zack. Every time Lily and Luke were together behind Zack’s back, it was hard to listen to and I found myself wanting the scene to be over. And that is my only reason for giving this 4.5 stars.

So I guess I’m team “Please for the love break up with Zack properly so you can be with Luke and it not feel so icky”.

I will say I think the story ended perfectly. Taking the choice away from Lily was the only solution that made sense.

I’m very excited to see what Lowe comes out with next. This will definitely be an author I continue to follow!

Narrator’s voice too young

Revisado: 05-09-21

I enjoyed the story. It kept me entertained and I will listen to the next one. But the narrator had a very child-like voice. So it made it a bit odd when the sexual parts started playing out.

Annoying Female Voice

Revisado: 01-06-20

I can’t stand the way the female narrator draws out the last syllable of words (whisperrrrrr). It’s very annoying. I try avoiding books she narrates, but I love Meghan March, so I deal with it. But I honestly think her reading effects how I view the whole book, because I didn’t love this story like I have others.

Voice

Revisado: 12-05-19

The narrator used a very childish voice throughout this book. It’s was pretty annoying. These girls are Sophomores in spy school. They wouldn’t speak like fourth graders. I love the story, but I would have this book narrated by someone else.
