accidentalrambler 's review for:

Mister O by Lauren Blakely
3.0

I gave it 3 because I enjoyed it more than the two books from this series that I rated at 2 stars but still...it's more like 2.5 (WHEN WILL GOODREADS ALLOW 0.5 RATINGS, WHEN, I NEED IT).

Overall I guess what I want to say is...I know it's a genre but it's XXI, for fu*k's sake, so I'm over this kind of sexist bullshit that paints a man as this beast whose daily accomplishment is refraining from having sex, like - Of course, I read contemporaries mainly because I look for something fun and steamy but ...NOT LIKE THIS:

"They say men have sex on the brain 99.99 percent of the time. You’re not going to catch me trying to dispute that.

Why would I? It’s pretty much dead-on accurate, especially when you consider the remaining 0.01 percent of brainpower is tirelessly dedicated to finding the remote."

And that's just like the first paragraph of the first chapter *sigh* Maybe it's supposed to be funny, well then I guess I have a very different sense of humour. And actually funny thing is, that apart from that, the main hero is really written as a great sweet guy, not some sleazebag.

Anyway, I think I am done for now, time to move on to something different.
