It was good and bad at the same time

Revisado: 03-24-25

A very interesting concept that had great potential. Parts of it were just too long and scenarios were almost repetitive. Other parts were twisty and good which was enough to keep me going. Sometimes I enjoy an ending that sort of leaves you wanting more. However, I felt like this ending - I really needed more. Unless there is a sequel…..

Better than the last 15 Books

Revisado: 12-03-24

I have stopped enjoying these 15 or 20 books ago, but I keep reading them so that says something about me. However, this one was better than they have been in a long time. The story outside of “The who is she going to marry” was good on its own. I would like to see the follow up books continue to try a little bit harder like this one did. Also, just a personal thing, she made the wrong choice in her husband, but no matter what I will be there for the next one, I may complain about it, but I will still spend money to buy it and read it.

Good Story, but a Little Predictable - Narration was not good.

Revisado: 11-20-24

The story was entertaining - The twist and the ending were predictable, pretty early on in the story. The narrator was not good, I don’t know what type of accent that was supposed to be, but it was pretty annoying. The different voices didn’t really match the characters. You should definitely check it out if you are just in for an easy story - the premise was good, but it almost seemed like it gave up on itself and threw away what could have been a better ending quickly at the end of the book than playing it out a little bit more.

This should be a YA Book

Revisado: 10-30-24

The book was entirely too long for the story. It went on and on with extra things that were not necessary and seemed self indulgent. Was there a plot twist, yeah, a little bit. Nothing you hadn’t already figured out and then when the book should have ended, it just kept going. I wouldn’t recommend this. It’s really difficult for me to give a bad review, but I don’t want someone else to sit through this unnecessarily.

Not what I expected

Revisado: 02-25-24

I’m not sure if I didn’t read the book details very thoroughly or what, but I went into this book really not knowing that much about it. Which, in hindsight worked wonderfully for me - loved the book! I’m not going to say much other than just grab it, listen to it and enjoy it!

This is the same book recycled for at least the last 15 in the series

Revisado: 11-28-23

I say that, but I keep reading them in the hopes that something will change, and it never does. It is the same formula every time. I enjoyed them in the beginning, but maybe that was because it was 30 years ago, and obviously I have grown and matured over the last 30 years while the books haven't. Also, stop with the body shaming semi-racial stuff - it's not okay. You are making a ton of money by selling the same tired book year after year, but I am buying the same tired book year after year - so who's the winner? Write a book for the people who want to opt out - only to be read if you are over this series. Finish the book in some spectacular way and then just continue on with the series for those who enjoy this recycled material. At least it gives those of us who have stuck around for 30 years a chance to get off the merry-go-round.

Uninspired

Revisado: 05-05-23

There was so much that could have been done with these characters but unfortunately, they did nothing. Even the important parts weren’t important. This is sort of a read the book - or don’t read the book. It’s not going to make a difference at all.

An Easy Sweet Story

Revisado: 01-10-23

I very much enjoyed this story -it was lovely. A very nice departure. From some of the more intense books. I have been reading. If you are just looking for something that will make you smile - I suggest this book.

A Young Pop culture David Sedaris?

Revisado: 08-28-22

OK, before anybody comes for me I know there’s only one David Sedaris. However, I think this young man is a very good storyteller and that, with his humor and knowledge of pop-culture, he should have great things in his future.

Too contrived

Revisado: 06-09-22

Too many characters, too far-fetched and yet extremely predictable. I enjoyed the beginning of the book, but then it just became difficult to finish. I wouldn’t even call this a beach read because as fluffy as those books can be this one just felt like it was reaching to come to a conclusion that you already knew was going to happen halfway through the book.
