Ik wilde deze graag lezen, omdat de hype om deze series zo groot is en iedereen er met zo veel enthousiasme over praat. Maar wat was dit voor mij een teleurstelling. 

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.

I enjoyed the plot and the spice. It started out as a slow burn but after that whooosh holy cow. I didn’t expect the plot twist with Alex’s family and that rattled my boots. I’m a little upset that Josh never really forgave Alex but you know that’s kinda understandable as to why but it was good. I enjoyed how after he broke her heart they spent time recollecting the trust they use to have instead of making up and getting back together in 2 days it was reasonable and I liked that about it you know. I recommend it considering I wanna read the other three.

2.0

this is probably the horniest book ive ever read 😭. i had some issues with it, not just with what some of the characters (alex) did but with how it was executed. seemed like with everything that was packed in, it should have been longer, maybe a little more fleshed out? as for the character’s actions, at some point i surrendered to fiction bc it really is just a book and hopefully there arent any young/impressionable ppl reading this thinking its okay act the way alex does.
the only one of the series i really had an interest in was the third book, but i thought i would read this one first as josh and jules are extremely close with alex and ava. but ofc now im a teeny bit interested in the second book so sigh

What can I say? I’m a sucker for tall dark and moody guys. The sense of humour adds some lightness that I feel is necessary for this book.
