jamieco 's review for:
The Farthest Edge
by Kristen Ashley
Ugh one of the ONLY books I have liked by Kristen Ashley and I’m left totally unsatisfied with the ending and actually some other things in the book.
They only exchange ONE “I love you” and it’s in the epilogue. I HATE when authors do this and not to mention the aren’t even moved in together in the epilogue. He’s gonna get his own apartment but spend all his time at her place??? That makes no sense to me and really annoyed me. I was going to give this 4 stars, until the unsatisfying epilogue and not exchanging I love you’s until the end.
I always see reviews talking about KA’s spectacular epilogues, but I have yet to read a book with an epilogue by her and be really amazed. They always seem lackluster to me.
Another thing that bugged me is that the H can tell his friend everything about his past, but won’t and never does tell the h.
I think the biggest thing that left me unsatisfied was the dead ex. I had no clue going into this that there was a dead ex, and if I had I probably wouldn’t have read it. (Im not sure if it’s in the blurb, as I went into this blind and only having read two other reviews that never mention the ex) However, I don’t think the h was second best and I truly think the H loved the h more. I just could not stand all of the comparisons the H made between the ex and the h. ALSO, calling the dead ex “his woman” and everyone else who refers to her the ex call her the H’s woman, REALLY pissed me off. I felt it was unnecessary and annoying.
The very last thing is something that EASILY did NOT need to be added. When the H tells the h about his most recent partner and how he only came with her because he thought of the h. I do not at all find that romantic. I think it’s gross and tacky and I hate when authors have their H’s tell their h’s when that has happened.
A lot of this is so disappointing because I really wanted to give this a five star, which I think would’ve been my first KA five star. It is so different to what she usually writes about and I loved that because she is an author I usually avoid. Oh well, I probably won’t be reading any more of her books in the future unless it looks really really really good
