More Than Forever by Jay McLean

2.0

The first half the this book is great!!! The second half tho. Oh God, I’m too annoyed to even rant. Like books 2 and 3 it’s drama and angst overload. I hate the way this author uses tragedy. It’s a crutch, an excuse, an escape and most importantly a cheap way to move a story, redeem characters/relationships and contrive a plot without actually having to write a good story. It’s one of those cheat codes that never stops working (hence the high rating this series has). I also hate the way selfish shitty behavior is justified by these overly dramatic pasts. It gets old when you can see through the smoke and mirrors and realize how terrible the story really is. On a positive note, I absolutely love Mark. He’s this book’s saving grace. And because I’m not a quitter, I’ll probably read the last book but if I dislike it too, my list of authors to avoid will increase by one name. I’ve heard she gets Heidi the eff up outta here which is the only thing I can respect in this whole series.
