Well that was... exhausting.
I think I read this fast because I just wanted it to end. I waited so long for this, but when I read it... I was bothered by both characters.
Erik was a mean ass to Piper. I wanted to drag him out pf the book and feed him to the dinosaurs!!! I SWEAR!! I wanted to throw my Nook because he was being so selfish and so damn immature. I hated hat he was doing the same thing over and over again to intentionally or unintentionally hurt Piper. I hate how child-like he is and I hate his lack of balls. Lastly, I hate his way of thinking. He keeps on saying that he's afraid to be like his parents when we all know that you are your own person. Such drama in a guy's life, ugh.
Piper on the other hand is a darn beautiful martyr. She kept on hoping that Erik will change. In fact, she kept on voicing it out that her lines were so predictable. She was always doting on him even when they're fighting. If you ask me, I think she spoiled Erik's character.The only thing that I loved about her is her iron will when she destroyed Erik's toys. Gosh. I guess that's fiction for us. Even with the blatant lack of respect, the heroine still loves the jerk. I just.. I can't even think of a relationship like this in real life. It's plain torture.
Of course, they still have their happy ending, but the thing is... I don't buy it. I can't get the way Erik treated Piper at the start out of my system and I surely can't get rid of my disappointment with regards Piper's character. Of course I love that they have their baby and all that, however, there's a nagging feeling at the back of my head that reminds me of their attitudes. lol. Maybe if I read this again, I'll feel better, but for now... hmm.. No, sorry.
wayyyy before:
HURRY UP AUGUST!!!!!!!
