99 Percent Mine by Sally Thorne

michellechien930's review against another edition

4.0

Ever since reading "The Hating Game", Sally Thorne has given me a whole new standard these days for romantic novels! I've read so many these past years, and a lot of contemporary romantic authors just aren't my cup of tea. I feel like Sally Thorne really "gets" women and what we want to read: fiery passion and a good plot to boot! Even though "The Hating Game" will forever be my top-tier romance read, "99 Percent Mine" is really great as well. The main character Darcy is not exactly likable, but it's a different direction from the usual ditsy Mary Sues out there. I really loved the male protagonist Tom though! He is perfect and so romantic! Definitely count me in for anything Sally Thorne writes in the future, I will lick it up like ice cream in a bowl. :)

I just loved this! I found it a bit more realistic than some other books in this genre. Especially the MMC was very lovable and relatable. Had realistic issues etc. It was a quick read, I really enjoyed it.

Not nearly as gripping as The Hating Game but still a fun read!

Between 3 and 3.5 ⭐️

I liked this one but not nearly as much as the hating game.
I think the story is interesting but I felt like it jumped around a lot? That could also just be my brain jumping around in its own.
I liked it, I just wanted more detail in the story maybe?

Regardless, I am a Sally Thorne fan and will continue reading anything she publishes!

It was good and I enjoyed it but I don't think it'll be one that I think about a lot in the future. Jamie sucks and has little redeeming qualities. I'd be happier if he weren't there.

Such a cute cheesy romance. Exactly what I was in the mood for. There is some cringe moments, but I enjoyed it all!
