Way to Sappy

Revisado: 04-13-25

I appreciate that the story leaves out the typical explicit sex scenes of romantic comedies, but this story is just way to corny and sappy. Nothing happens except these two drink tea (constantly) and think to themselves about how attracted they are to each other. How he is so handsome and she is so cute. Then they get together and they just say the same things they had been saying to themselves, except now to each other. Nothing really happens. Boring and sappy.

So Stupid

Revisado: 10-08-24

Could not finish it. So predictable. Stupid people dealing with a crazy person, knowingly taking risks, and then always saying “I’m sure it will be ok”. Reminds me of that commercial where a group of teenagers are running from a maniac, and instead of heading for the car and driving away, they decide to hid in a dark shack full of axes.

Not For Me

Revisado: 07-28-24

Pretty much just erotic sexual tension and innuendo with an annoying aristocratic and southern accent.

Sappy

Revisado: 06-18-24

Sometimes funny, but mostly very sappy. That sums it up but I need to hit a 15 word minimum to post.

Minority Negative Review

Revisado: 02-11-24

I can understand that this very detailed family epic took much talent and effort to write, but I am really not a fan. All of the characters (except maybe Toby, the young boy) are very unlikable. They are almost always miserable, whining, sometimes evil, and overthinking all of the reasons they deserve to be miserable. It took great effort to finish it.

Boring

Revisado: 07-08-23

Very detailed descriptions of airplane models, training procedures, and flight routes. Not much story to get behind.

Too much introspection … not much else.

Revisado: 04-24-23

This book is pretty much 15 minutes of a tragic incident, and 11 hours of sentences that start … he thought ….. she wondered … she felt … he remembered … she needed … he regretted … she needed … he wondered, etc, etc, etc, at nauseum. There really is not much going on, just characters thinking, remembering, wondering, regretting, needing, avoiding, watching, dreaming, looking, feeling, and then repeating it all over again.

A Bit Sappy

Revisado: 07-10-22

I lost count of how many times Lily’s “eyes filled with tears”, both happy and sad. Way too many, in my opinion.

Bait and Switch

Revisado: 11-27-21

Pro-abortion propaganda and a smattering of anti-Brexit sentiments hidden inside a sweet story of an old lady. I wish I had known that before I purchased it. Also, why is there never a consideration of adoption as an alternative to abortion? As a mother of two adopted children (with developmental disorders due to biological moms’ use of alcohol during their pregnancies), I’ll admit that I am biased, and believe that every conceived baby deserves a chance at life. If you are not able to care/love your child, please give it to someone who will, rather than kill it.

No need for Political Jabs

Revisado: 08-12-21

To Will Leitch: References such as “white nationalists”, southern systemic voter suppression”, and “right wing memes” to name a few, are in no way related to the story/plot and add nothing to it. Better to leave out the political jabs and focus on the story.
