It’s my second reading of this book, I didn’t really want to read it again but I forgot what happened and wanted to refresh my memory. Now I can see why I didn’t give it 5 star after my first reading and why I didn’t really think of reading it again. For me it was kinda meh.
First, I forgot how much sex was present. I don’t mind spice but it felt like the sex scenes were the main point of the book instead of the plot with the great grandma? I guess if you just want porn it’s for you
Sometimes the writing was a little bit childish/cringe. I really didn’t like the beginning of their relationship, dub con isn’t my cup of tea but once Addie “accepted” their relationship I liked them together.
