📋 So I liked Alex in the middle of the book; the beginning and the end? Not so much. Ava and Alex should NOT have gotten back together - some things are unforgivable and he became a stalker under the face of "omg! possessiveness!" it's not cute (again, I don't mind this trait but I guess it depends).
📋 Would it have killed Alex to have flaws and not be great at absolutely everything though? Characters being bad at things is fun! I mean he was super flawed, so at least he wasn't Absolutely Perfect.
📋 I really liked that this book had a plot and it wasn't just sex in every chapter! Like was the plot over the top? Yes, but it was fun.
📋 I also like that we got to know more about Ava outside of her feelings for Alex. I wasn't expecting the plot twist regarding her storyline although in hindsight I probably should have.
📋 I have heard the rest of the series is better, so I'm looking forward to it!

"It's what humans seek from the time we are born until we draw our last breath. It's more powerful than any other emotion we feel. It can cause unlimited damage and pain, but it can also be our savior."
Este libro fue divertido, tierno y fácilde digerir, lo que "Power" quería ser pero no logró.
Si bien el romance me gustó en su mayoría, la historia de Alex me aburrió y me pareció demasiado para la trama, al principio me gustó su forma de ser, hasta me hacía reír, pero entre más leía su historia, más annoying me empezó a parecer, eso de que era todo poderoso a sus 27 años y que tenía hasta al vicepresidente del país comiendo de su mano... me dio sueño.
La historia de Ava me gustó como parte de la trama, como que se sentía más cómodo que estuviera ahí para dar inicio a la relación de Alex y Ava. Ava me pareció un personaje femenino bueno, si algo ingenua, casi no era como otros personajes insufribles, pero me hubiera gustado que fuera un poco mayor, aunque su forma de ser y reaccionar a ciertas situaciones, encajaba muy bien a su edad, para mí.
Seguiré con esta saga, son libros entretenidos y divertidos, para relajarse un poco si no quieres leer algo tan serio.
"Most people thought the biggest sacrifice they could make was to die for something. They were wrong. The biggest sacrifice someone could make was to live for something-to allow it to consume you and turn you into a version of yourself you didn't recognize"

Odié el final, el cómo Alex acosa a Ava y la obliga a estar nuevamente con él, que la amenace porque no quiere que ningún otro hombre se acerque a ella. OK, ENTIENDO que es parte de la trama y si hay un warning al respecto, pero aún así, no puedo evitar odiar ese tipo de personajes. Me gustaría que hubiera un libro donde el personaje tóxico se resigne a perder a la mujer que ama y la deje ser feliz con alguien más, aunque al final ella lo perdone, jajaja ✨️deconstrucción✨️sdemo08's review against another edition

Ik dacht oprecht dat ik deze niet zou uitlezen, maar het mysterie rond de nachtmerries en Alex zijn familie heeft het gered.
Dat gedeelte was namelijk súper spannend en hierdoor zat ik op het puntje van mijn stoel.
- spoilers-
De relatie tussen Ava en Alex is niet romantisch of “sexy”, het is creepy, bezitterig en stalkerig.
In het begin van het boek lijkt het nog een soort van logisch, waneer je uiteindelijk de ware intenties van Alex leert.
Maaaaar dan kom het laatste deel van het boek. Waar hij haar dus oprecht leuk vindt en voor haar (zonder dat zij dat wilt) naar Londen verhuisd. Waar hij letterlijk haar elke dag bezoekt (ook al wilt ze dat niet), cadeautjes stuurt (ook dit wilt ze niet) de politie zou omkopen om haar te mogen blijven lastigvallen (want guess what, zij wilt dat niet) en potentiële nieuwe relaties dwarsboomt. Alleen omdat HIJ haar leuk vindt. 🚩🚩🚩🚩
De smut was ook too much en ik denk dat dit boek beter zou zijn als niet elke beweging die ze maken wordt verdraaid naar een spicy gedachte.
EN DAN maken ze het goed, na een JAAAAR zeuren van deze man. En het eerste wat hij doet is zijn vingers erin douwen???????
Ik heb de epiloog hierna nieteens gelezen, zoek het uit.
